Early Thursday, the Biden campaign sent a letter to The New York Times criticizing the paper for its coverage of President Trumps allegations about Hunter Biden. The letter spotlighted recent reporting from the papers own Ken Vogel, as well as an op-ed on Hunter Biden from Peter Schweizer, a Breitbart contributor best known for his 2015 book, Clinton Cash, which contained inaccurate claims about Hillary and Bill Clinton. This is the second time the Biden campaign has clashed publicly with the press in recent weeksin late September, another letter was sent to the major networks asking them to stop booking Rudy Giuliani, given his round the clock efforts to promote debunked conspiracy theories about Biden.

(10,832 posts)The Schweizer Oped was the final straw. If editors of the paper want to take this track, pretend that running the words of a conspiracy, sleaze merchant is all about the First Amendment? They can do it without me. Schweizer is no better than Alex Jones. That fact that 'newspaper of record' would publish straight up disinformation is disgusting.
The New York Times failed miserably.

(297,317 posts)for not putting up with it! I cancelled my subscription when I was living in New York back in 2003.. They underplayed the world wide protests to the War on Iraq.. I was there and looking forward to the coverage in the NYT.. and nothing. It was below the fold and mostly about a scuffle with a policeman on a horse than the Peaceful protests of hundreds of thousands of People in a below freezing temperatures in NYC on February 15, 2003.
And, then there was Judy Miller's propaganda that she never apologized for.

His creds are authentic. I think that he is disgusted with the sloven coverage that the NYT gives Trump versus how aggressively it covers democrats.

My brother in law keeps posting stuff about how Dems are perverting the Constitution.

and stands the test of time, propaganda and fact erasures.
If the NYT helps 45 win again -- the best it can hope for if he becomes the once and future dictator, is that he doesn't shut it down or rename it Fashistskiye vremena, The Fascist Times.
NYT? You'd better get fit to print! Or you'll no longer be the paper of record.

Do believe we will see the Trump machine exposed, the whole enabling gang rounded up in some fashionprison or power-stripping and shameBarr, Nunes, all the dirty henchmen taken down, and Republican Party crippled for a few generations.
