>Why is Nytimes so concerned about China while failing completely to put the spotlight on the burgeoning surveillance culture at home?

But the NYT reports on those issues all the time. You likely know about them precisely because of their articles.

>Who is going to talk about draconian surveillance, secret courts, secret orders, gag orders and government officials empowered to violate your dignity and privacy by searching your phone and personal effects. Why is Snowden still in Russia? Are we to pretend all this is not happening?

The NYT also reports on these all the time. In fact, it was the NYT that broke the story on surveillance programs like Stellar Wind in the mid-Bush era that laid the groundwork for Snowden's later revelations about the details of these programs.

This is hysterical nonsense. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about in the slightest.
