Nice try, New York Times
You can’t pretend you all of a sudden realized that Trump is a threat to all of American democracy and relay it to us like it’s breaking news and hope we’ll be gaslit into thanking you for informing us because we were not aware, and forget about all the coverage up until yesterday where you were explicitly favoring him for some horrifying reason
It's Paul Krugman. He's been talking about how awful Trump is since at least 2016
... and before that he was talking about how awful Bernie Sanders is. Fuck him.
Not sure what that has to do with discussing the dangers of Trump. You can agree with someone about one thing and disagree about other things.
Sure, or I can disregard his opinions entirely.
I've found, throughout my life, there are many opinions that should be disregarded.
He said Nice try NYT, not nice try Krugman. Krugman's a minority voice there these days; the overwhelming majority of NYT coverage has been all about Biden's age (while ignoring trump's age and word salad incoherence)
were explicitly favoring him for some horrifying reason
I'm at work on a short break so I can't pull up the source, but the guy whose family "runs" the NYTs has said he's looking to court conservative readers. He has denied this somewhat recently, but the trend matches the behavior we witnessed l. I found this by trying to figure out who owns the NYT to begin with so maybe start with the wiki on NYT
Although I don’t at all agree with its central thesis about the Times, this article goes into a good bit of the history and the behind the scenes. I talked in the comments about what I think is mistaken about the article, but you can still learn a lot about the Times from reading the facts it is basing its incorrect conclusions on.
