However the famous NYT spin remains unchanged! I looked at menu item 3, "World" and came across an article about a lawyer who was found guilty by an Italian court. It is only near the end of the second page that his marital connection with Tessa Jowell is made, (almost as a trivial aside). She is described as "British Olympics minister", which implies that she is a person of little consequence. That may be the case today but she has held other places in British Labour Cabinets, and in the early stages of the case her family connection with Mills was widely reported in the British press.
The article couldn't have been designed better if the NYT actively wanted to obscure this issue from the wider American and world readership.
