The biased, fake news NYT....
gets the second resignation of an op ed editor (first was James Bennet) in the past several months. Mzzzzz/Mrrrrr ? Bari Weiss quits its job, with an interesting letter. The gist of the letter complains that the NYT doesn't have twitter on its masthead. And that it's been tough working there with the ongoing adverse political views of much of the other staff. Ceteris paribus.In the early days of the paper, before the 1900's, one of the founders proudly announced that his paper should present all viewpoints, so as to encourage open public debate. Right.
Now, Bari, is hardly a right wing plant. And seems pretty young, and possibly inexperienced, for such a role at this major fish wrap. But c'mon, peebles, did she/he/it, possibly think that this left wing outlet would allow the sort of fair coverage the founders believed in, over a century ago? Much less, that it/he/she would somehow have a chance in hell to change the biased leftie direction of the suits, let alone other staff To inexperience, I'd add naivete'.
In these regards, I view with interest the frequent lifting of stories from the NYT, WP, LAT, etc., by some here on CS, to post, while making a TD-HD Syndrome political point. The severity of the illness is such, that not once has there ever been raised a doubt about the veracity of the paper's stories. Nor citing any other slightly different viewpoint. It just gets proudly, stridently, lifted and copied onto the posting. AS IF.
Yes indeedie, severe afflictions---VERY severe.

It seems like there needs to be some explaining to do on their "holier then thou" attitudes
and only time will tell if any adjustments will be made. I doubt that very much but at least
they've been exposed for what a lot have been thinking for a long time.
You are correct---few non-deranged, fair-minded people are missing any of it. Derangement is a strong clinical term, but in many cases, even here on CS, it really does apply. I love to point out President Trump's many warts. Some are actually part of his strength and broad appeal. MAGA.
With all the wonderful youtube videos out there how could they ! Narrated by some seedy, unshaven drunk,
living in a van strung with christmas lights hooked up to a car battery. What is wrong with those demonrats?!?!
