The Blogosphere scoops Moody

Pajamas Media reports:
Moody may be about to downgrade The New York Times’ ratings.
They've been downgraded by bloggers for a long time.

The Times had to issue a correction for a story claiming to be about the person photographed at Abu Ghraib with a hood over his head. (Doesn't that suggest that you might want to check his story. But today it's published another story claiming:
As the Iraqi insurgency intensified in early 2004, an elite Special Operations forces unit converted one of Saddam Hussein's former military bases near Baghdad into a top-secret detention center. There, American soldiers made one of the former Iraqi government's torture chambers into their own interrogation cell. They named it the Black Room.
There's a placard from this detention center proclaiming the "High Five Paintball Club" and the slogan "No Blood No Foul" Apparently, the "torture" included being shot at with paintballs.

It doesn't actually state that the story comes from a Pentagon investigation, but it is nearly 2 years old. I hope their documents are better than the last torture story.
