Silence from the NY Times [View all]

Has anybody noticed the Times' loud silence on President Obama's press conference on Friday? Only a short blurb was printed, which mainly discussed the CIA's spying on Congress, no real discussion about his statements calling those who tortured (or approved torture) "real patriots" (among other statements like we shouldn't be too sanctimonious). No analysis, editorial or other article has been published. What gives, oh "paper of record"?
