I subscribed to the NY Times for many years. It used to be a great paper. They were always liberal, but they used to know where the line was drawn between news and editorials. It is such a shame what has happened to it. These days, the news articles are completely tainted too. It has become unreadable.

This is no surprise that this has happened. That is what the left does, right? No room for any views that deviate from the narrative.

This is true, but up until recently it was at least tolerable. The Washington Post, on the other hand has been a nasty cesspool for a long time now. And it's bizarre, because this is what Jeff Bezos wanted and so many years later, the Marxist mob he encouraged is coming for his head as a successful billionaire. They want his head on a stick, all that pandering to the mob has earned him ZERO good will

DO NOT ENCOURAGE THE MOB, they WILL eventually come for YOU

I don't see them as unbiased, just by watching them.

Do you?

Do you not feel, in general, that you can tell when you're reading a biased article, just by the very way it's worded?

And do you not feel that you can strongly sense when something isn't true?

Like the thread currently on here, mayors vote to pay reparations of 6.2 quadrillion dollars. Do you, like most people, immediately know that's not true?

I think most of us have a sense for what's true, and what's slanted.

The NY Times is run by the leftist mob. It's nothing but an agitprop rag. And who's surprised that this Jewish woman was subjected to a toxic amount of Anti-Semitism on the job in that building?

Why? Anyone with a pulse already knew this to be true. The left 90% of media believes this behavior is acceptable.

No one ever heard of you, and yet you think your thoughts should be taken seriously.

Actually they are most profitable newspaper in the world, they are currently wildly popular after industry consolidation.

All under the false pretense of legitimate, impartial news

The Times is a God damn FRAUD now the other media outlets cannot bury this scandal

We are at the dawn of the dismantling of the left totalitarian mob, and it's about time

BlakeJones, this is really upsetting to you - and I just now read your location.

How do your fellow New Yorkers feel about this?

As I understand this, they didn't fire her, she resigned? Because she was working in a hostile environment?

But she purposely took the job as a voice of opposition to the others on staff. I would guess that most high-profile professional journalists are pretty outspoken and opinionated, and she was around outspoken opinionated people who saw things completely differently than she does, and she purposely took the job and knew she would be in that position.

Am I reading this wrong?
