The NYT And The T-Word, Ctd

That dreadful piece - cowardly in its language and stupid in its description of torture opponents as somehow all "left-wing" - also misquoted Senator Feinstein as Ackerman reports. Here's the full quote from Feinstein, which the NYT truncated:

“The law must reflect a single, clear standard across the government, and right now the best choice appears to be the Army Field Manual,” Senator Feinstein said. “I recognize that there are other views, and I am willing to work with the new Administration to consider them. However, my intent is to pass a law that effectively bans torture, complies with all laws and treaties, and provides a single standard across the government.”

How does a competent journalist not print the sentence in italics?
