The Claudine Gay "plagiarism scandal" shows the power of an outlet like the Times choosing a story they want to hammer over and over via these sort of notifications. Could easily choose to do that for any number of Trump's alarming and unpopular proposals but they just... dont'!

Which stories major news outlets choose to emphasize and push to their readers seems both far more consequential and far more indicative of the owners' political preferences than, for example, official endorsements by editorial boards.

Their embrace of EM at DealBook was the last straw for me (and my subscription dollars.) I got out just before that one blew up. They sadly continue to prove my decision correct.
