@nytimes.com has been doing this shit for a century

“while the media acknowledged that Fascism was a new ‘experiment’, papers like The New York Times commonly credited it with returning turbulent Italy to what it called ‘normalcy’…“

He also wrote an essay objecting to Banned Books Week, which I just read for the first time a few minutes ago, and which is a bald-faced denial of the constant legal challenges towards books of all kinds that have become frighteningly more commonplace in the last few decades.

Apparently the NYT went in and edited the headline to “Why I Won’t Vote” which is still BS because we know that wanker was always gonna vote red all the way down the ticket

Sigh, caught with their pants down, the @nytimes.com has chosen to modify the headline, without explanation of course.

Basic investigation from the NYT would show this man's voting record. Irresponsible editorial oversight.

so.... not-interference of them, to normalize it this way using their massive platform. Giving people a 'co-sign' to surrender their voice in democracy. Even as democracy itself is on the line. Gob. Smacked.

Unsubscribed over a year ago. Ending my WaPo subscription this week. I feel they have been taken over by the new Murdoch type folks who are smoother but just as right leaning. Tired of the conservative propaganda.

It's now titled "Why I Won't Vote," so I guess that eliminates the hypocrisy 🤔 That's as far as the NYT will let me read, apparently I used up all my free articles a decade or so ago.
