en [Down in central Arkansas, the people running the Arkansas Times (which perhaps could be called the kiddy paper when compared to the grown-up Arkansas Democrat-Gazette), demonstrated their complete ignorance and utter tactlessness by accusing Bush of trying to get free press by declaring disaster areas.
