New York Times! (No spoilers)

The New York Times bought a copy of the book early, and wrote a "review" were they apparently give away the entire plot. ( I personally havn't read it). I can't belive the New York Times would do that. They seem like they would be above this...

it doesnt spoil anything too major, but i will go ahead and do this anyway for the people out there who dont want to know anything

Either way, I think that it was poor taste reviewing a book that they got from a bookstore that wasn't suppposed to be selling it.

for sure

and then there is an article in the NYT about how a bookstore shipped a bunch of copies to people a week early and now there is a lawsuit

yet there is a review of the very same book on the previous page

NYT review
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/19/books/19potter.html

Illinois lawsuit
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/19/books/19harry.html

now how messed up is that?
