I found the NYT right wing and bothsideism bias so pervasive that I cancelled my subscription. They are no longer the vaunted news source of past eras. Is this the result of hereditary ownership and editorship?
WAPO is on my cancellation bubble right now for the same reasons. Bezos says many things about being hands off, but his oligarchic leadership and hiring decisions are leading to more biased “reporting.”
The NYT cancellation process was difficult. It took five notices of cancellation and a couple of phone calls over three or four weeks and they still tried to charge my card two or three times until I asked the card provider to treat them as a fraudster.
Reading this, I'm reminded of something the late Hunter S. Thompson said while writing for ROLLING STONE: "The NY TIMES is a Newspaper of Record—and when you're a Newspaper of Record rather than of Advocacy, you don't want to upset those who make the record."
The TIMES has always, to a greater or lesser extent, wanted to be a part of The Smart Set, and rub elbows with those in power. It took them until the start of WWII to even start to acknowledge that Hitler was neither a Statesman nor a Politician who One Could Courteously Disagree With, but a Dictator With an Insatiable Appetite for Domination...and a fanatical loathing for Jews, which both the Ochs and Sulzberger families were.
Their blindness was undoubtedly aided by Hitler being rabidly anticommunist, something the wealthy capitalists who owned and ran the TIMES saw as a bulwark against that beastly Russian peasant Joseph Stalin—or at least, an attack dog they thought they could hurl at him! You see that mindset repeated with their kid-glove treatment of Donald Trump against a suddenly-"progressive" Joe Biden, who might even ::horrors!:: raise their taxes a few percent!
I long ago canceled my subscription to that right wing bird cage liner, so you’ll just have to convince someone else, and there are way too many still. But then again, there are many “good” people on the Space Nazis social media platform previously known as Twitter, and on the platform owned by professional congressional liar Zuckerberg, so really, yawn.
