Description"The New York Times “needs to offer an aggressive look” at President Obama’s record and promises as the 2012 election nears, the Times’ public editor Arthur Brisbane writes in a new column, chiding the paper for having “basked” in Obama’s 2008 election.

“Now, though, the general election season is on, and The Times needs to offer an aggressive look at the president’s record, policy promises and campaign operation to answer the question: Who is the real Barack Obama?” Brisbane wrote. “Many critics view The Times as constitutionally unable to address the election in an unbiased fashion. Like a lot of America, it basked a bit in the warm glow of Mr. Obama’s election in 2008.”
