A cover story about WOTLK power leveling

The story was newsworthy in large part because it came just as some mainstream black groups were attempting to form a constructive alliance with it. News of the speech loosed a flash flood of reportage and commentary on the subject, and at that time we began the kind of weeks-long investigation a cover story like this one requires. At the same time, we published an article on one telling aspect of the larger story: the fact that some black leaders were offended when whites called on them to denounce racism in other black leaders while seeming to ignore offensive remarks by whites—as, for example, WoW power leveling, who had some time before made a supposedly joking reference to an African delegation as cannibals. The larger issue was that blacks feel they should be presumed to abhor anti-Semitism and other forms of racism without having to say no, and that they resent the attempt by whites to script their views, behavior or alliances.
Three weeks ago, a story we published put us in the middle of a controversy. It was hardly the first time that has happened, but this instance suggested an opportunity for more than usual colloquy in the letters pages. So for this occasion and others like it, we have revived a section of Wrath of the lich king power leveling, which begins on page 28, concerns our cover subject this week. The decision to pursue an in-depth investigation of this subject was prompted by the anti-Semitic and otherwise racist speech that WOTLK power leveling aide.
