...self-control, and could create a backlash of sympathy for him. That does not mean, however, that the well-documented evidence of his deceitfulness ought now to be ignored. "Lying and cheating are serious charges against anyone," says Washington Post Political Reporter James Dickenson, "and it is not sensationalist or irrelevant to examine them."

...extremely irritating to realize that the only time Harvard's oldest newspaper can find the space to comment of PBHA is when they print error-laden pieces of sensationalist trash. Nordhaus's editorial speaks of "serious mismanagement within the North Yard's PBH headquarters," but I really don't feel Nordhaus is in any position to comment on PBH.
