Or just be a person with integrity and read all the news to find the truth, amongst the sea of liars and politically partisan hacks, who shape the news to influence the incurious masses.

Yes, the lazy people, particularly politically partisan hacks, will only read news that fits their already preconceived bias. however, hose people are made into fools every day here, and blasted away at like fish in a barrel.

The NY Times is propaganda and they weaponize their Covid reporting to attack Republicans.

Look at their polling of the vaccinated. They severely under poll black, Hispanic, and millennial people so they can inflate the Democrats vaccinated percentage higher as a stick to bash Republicans with.

The mainstream media is propaganda.

The NY Times puffed up the Communist leaders, ignored the Holocaust and lies and cover-ups are their main purpose. They have the dumb ones eating out of their hand as they read garbage, lies, and will always protect the wrong that is being done .. they did it before many times.. they are one sick bunch.

We will never know if the virus came out of that lab. China will never let in anyone to investigate it. And anyone in China who might know something will keep their mouth shut. That is reality.
Keep denying the truth.. the NY Times is still in the same family... they have not changed at all. We know them by their rotten fruits of cover ups and lies daily.

Exactly. and the NYT sucks up to dictators, fascists and communists, and selectively edits the news to protect them, again, and again, and again, not just during the 1930s and 1940s.

Yes.

The NY Times and FDR repeatedly praised and openly admired Mussolini for example.

The NY Times knew that the USSR committed a holocaust killing 7 to 10 million in the early 1930s and sought to cover it up by discrediting the man who reported on it.

The NY Times reported on the Nazi Holocaust, but relegated the stories to the back, rarely called the victims Jews, but rather terms like displaced people and refugees as if the victims were random and not purposeful genocide.

Former National Intelligence Director Says ‘Every Piece Of Evidence’ Proves COVID-19 Leaked From Wuhan Lab

Atop editor at the New York Times instructed Times staffers not to investigate the origins of COVID-19, two Times employees confirmed today.

‘In early 2020,’ a veteran Times employee tells me, ‘I suggested to a senior editor at the paper that we investigate the origins of COVID-19. I was told it was dangerous to run a piece about the origins of the coronavirus. There was resistance to running anything that could suggest that [COVID-19 was manmade or had leaked accidentally from a lab].’

The global pandemic was then in its early stages. Donald Trump was running for reelection and calling SARS-CoV-2 the ‘Chinese virus’. His secretary of state Mike Pompeo had told ABC’s This Week in May 2020 that he had seen ‘significant’ and ‘enormous evidence’ of the virus originating in the Wuhan Institute of Virology. A few weeks later, Sir Richard Dearlove, the ex-head of Britain’s MI6 spy service agreed: ‘I subscribe to the theory…that it’s an engineered escapee from the Wuhan Institute [of Virology].’

Yet the Times, according to two well-placed sources, refused to investigate the biggest story of our time. Instead, senior editors are alleged to have suppressed efforts to probe the virus’s origins, and the Times led the charge to dismiss any questioning of the WHO’s now-discredited line as conspiracist or even ‘racist’.

So many know so little about so much.

This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. U.S. media - and in particular the NYT - have been literal propaganda outlets since before anyone reading this was born, in all likelihood.

"Russians hungry, but not starving" was the headline, as millions were starving to death. That's just one drop from the fountain of lies coming from that rag.
