Given the New York Times has yet to fire TV critic and serial correction collector Alessandra Stanley, why should we expect editors to keep Alexei Barrionuevo's byline out of the paper? No matter that Barrionuevo has twice been exposed as a plagiarist and required the Times to apologize-slash-clarify an article about the Canadian and Chilean salmon industries.

So here he is today, writing about Brazil's environment and deforestation. [NYT] Which means Arthur Sulzberger and Clark Hoyt can expect to hear from Brazil's president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Greenpeaceh Brazil and Imazon, the anti-logging trade group, as well as WTK Group, Samling Organization, and Fortune Timber, three Asian logging behemoths with heavy investments in ridding Brazil of those silly trees, because you know Barrionuevo got something wrong.
