Un-JSON a String
<p>Is there a function to un-JSON a String? I guessing it wouldn't be built in to JQuery, but could it be pulled off by writing a script that manipulates the String? I'm encountering this in the following.</p>

<p>I'm using the NYTimes API, but it doesn't support JSONP, so I'm trying to find alternatives to access it. I can't use a server-side proxy by virtue of the circumstances this script will be run in. I am trying YQL <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/3NdEY/3/" rel="nofollow">here</a>, but the text returned is really messy. It is the JSON text as a String, and I can't use the JSON parsing capability. In other words, the text returned by YQL is the JSON of the JSON.</p>

<p>See <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9491500/signed-script-to-do-cross-domain-queries">this question</a> for more context.</p>
