Corn spikes and the Wall Street Journal, then and now

From the then and now department:

Wall Street Journal last month: “The resulting corn shortages [from ethanol mandates] drive food prices up in a way that punishes consumers around the world.”

Wall Street Journal this month: Drought impacts will be “far from crippling for the average consumer…corn-price spikes like the one we’ve experienced…don’t lead to massive spikes in the overall price of food at the grocery store.”
