The only advice I’d give the Biden campaign is to go to war with the NYT. They’re even less popular than Biden or Trump, would form a good rallying cry, and reframes the campaign to be an underdog attempt to push good policy against elites who don’t want it. “NYT is for the billionaires, we’re not.”

Absolutely positively right. As a subscriber of over 40 years, I call bullshit on today's paper. This is the culmination of a three-year vendetta by the Sulzberger failson whose correspondents failed to score an interview with Biden:

So the way you 'go to war' is you send your man to set them straight... but they won't. Why ? Again, it's the Biden camps version of trump not wanting to testify under oath because 'it's a perjury trap'. Bullshit. We know why Trump won't go under oath, and we know why Biden won't sit down w NYT

Don’t get me wrong fuck the NYT but the best part about that is that it’s a great way to remove any remaining distinction between blue and red MAGA.

Let's literally and figuratively cancel the NYT. Let's tell them to stop committing journalistic malpractice or wither on the vine. Who were the folks who made dents in specific Fox pundit viability through coordinated ad boycotting? Are they still around?

Because I feel like at the very least we can make it clear, no you will fucking not profit off the fall of democracy this time. SHOULD be obvious that the leopard will not spare your face-enemy of the people ring a bell? but if hitting the pocketbook is what it takes, let's try and do it.

So, I've been spitballing this idea. What if us plebs with a platform or talking to each other started that war? NYT is not as deep pocketed as Murdoch, and I presume one goal here is to regain the clicks and dollars they got with Trump 1.0

It probably wouldn't work to win this election. The NYT editorial decisions and direction are corrosive though so I'm for it.

I take your point but not sure I agree. Trump attacked the press, and that was really bad. Not sure I like a sitting president doing that sort of thing, no matter how much they might have it coming.

All the NYT subscribers would only be like a top 50 subreddit. They give lots of opinions on wars but only have like one veteran on staff. Throw them overboard
