Look, I found excerpts from all the letters from when the NY Times set aside an entire day and page

to pro Obama voters.

Surely you remember that, don't you?

Here's some excerpts.....

1. Love this post

Get thee to the greatest page because

[lagomorph777]

2. NYT desperately clinging to the Despicable Disposable Deplorables.

Fuck 'em.

[maxsolomon]

3. The NYT is regularly accused of bias in it's reporting.

They're responding. Like Obama providing his Birth Certificate, instead of challenging Trump to go fuck himself.

It won't help, because accurate reporting is the enemy of Trumpism.

4. Yeah they are biased. Remember their fucking exclusive on Clinton Cash? The Mercer-funded lie

book NYT just couldn’t help themselves from promoting? They fact checking these letters at all? Doubt it.

[Sparkly]

7. Not to mention their hit-job on Al Gore.

8. Yes I remember. I've subscribed to the print edition for nearly 20 years.

I remember Judith Miller's stenography on the Iraq War run-up, as well.

But that's not the direction the bias is accused of going, as you probably know. Many times they bend over backwards to appear fair to the GOP, and they get taken for a ride. On the whole, they lean Centrist/Liberal, particularly on the Editorial Page.

What they're doing here is similar to NPR's (infuriating) approach to GOP Pols. Give Trumpist voices a forum. Perform objectivity. Show the Liberal Cognoscenti how the Great Unwashed think. Create a record of fairness they can point to.

I think they know they're in a War against Authoritarianism, and they're as much a target as CNN or the WaPo.

11. The promotion of the war

I have a rage for all the people in and out of government that promoted that God awful war.

Peace

6. NY Times could give them 364 days a year

and the toothless dumbasses from Dumbfuckistan, AmeriKKKa would still throw bricks through their windows and threaten their families with violence for the 1 day they didn't get.

It's like trying to pet a scorpion in the hopes it won't sting you.

[Ohiogal]

5. Won't matter

because The Deplorables don't read the Times anyway.

[maxsolomon]

9. ahh, but they do and they don't realize it

local papers carry NYT stories the next day. my Dad reads them in the Cincy paper.

[RussBLib]

10. there is some value in seeing what they see in Trump

if they are telling the truth, that is

some value
