It is not absurd to blame Murdoch for his role in the war.
He didn't take a negative or neutral position. He actively campaigned for it across three continents (UK, US and Australia). And it has been widely reported that Blair was heavily influenced by Murdoch.
The NYT didn't officially take a position. It just failed in its duty to check the facts.
