Copy-Editing Problems at the Times?

This from a recent article in the NY Times:
In Britain, reducing carbon dioxide emissions was one of the few policies supported by political parties of both the right and left, which both accepted that climate change was a serious problem and saw clean technology investment as a growth opportunity rather than an onerous obligation.
Guys, guys, guys!!  I've got better things to do.  Break it up into two sentences next time.


...And furthermore, what really disappoints me is that the mistake is very, very similar to the problem we covered last weekend! 


...If Judy Prebish was over there, somebody'd get busted down to society page copy boy!
