Larry Clifton | Posted at 12:21pm on Monday, May 5th, 2008 | After living in The Tampa Bay area for fifty years, my main observation regarding the SP Times is it is an extremely liberal publication. A NY Times wannabe, the Times sports a heavy-handed host of left-falling editors focused more on expanding their ideology and aiding Democratic candidates than producing a balanced or credible newspaper. There are some top-notch seditors also, however, they are usually found in cities and counties outside of Pinellas or St. Petersburg, FL.
