Anyone remember how Hillary did not bake cookies like a good Bush wife would do? Weapons of Mass Destruction? The "Great Communicator?"

These fucks have been at this a very very very long time. Would like to see the time line for when they got bought out by the right wing...but, since they covered Hitler in the 30s as What a Guy! I have the feeling "always have been" would be the answer.

They have always been the paper of defending rich fucks and the status quo. They probably tongue-bathed the robber barons regularly too.

What a fucking pile of shit. Trump is a fucking nut case. It seems no one has the balls to point this out. I have no problem pointing out that Trump is a fucking nut case. What is wrong with the supposedly main stream media that should be reporting on the fact that Trump is a fucking nut case? Maybe they can't pull their heads far enough out of the corporate bosses ass to honestly report that Trump is a fucking nut case. That right there is one huge problem. It may doom us to Nazi rule for four years or longer if the Riech wing gets it's way.

Let's see. I'm not into crossword puzzles. Also not into Wordle. And I get most of my recipes from Recipes.com.

I guess I have absolutely no use for the New York Times.

The NYT has been a useless propaganda rag since Ronnie Raygun took office.......They HATED it when the WAPO beat them to the Watergate bomb shell.......of course, they would have had to been actually 'trying' to dig into Tricky Dick.......

You do recall the NYT was responsible for the "Pentagon Papers"?

They didn't have the balls to continue publishing after the gov threatened them, though, but the WaPo under Katherine Graham and Ben Bradlee did, so fuck them sideways.

Yes.......back when they were truly 'The Newspaper of Record' ..........pre-Raygun days. They still produce the occasional in depth reports......

Ta, Evan. I may keep saying this daily until Election Day: We must vote in such overwhelming numbers that all the R efforts to fatfuck, lie, and steal are thwarted. I don't want to use the two words usually associated with such a lopsided vote, landslide and tsunami, out of respect for those dealing with the aftereffects of the storms.

I have a subscription to the games section of the NYT so I can do the crossword and various other games, to keep my mind sharp, of course. It doesn't allow me access to the rest of the paper, which is fine, the headlines are usually enough to give me a good idea of the inanity of the reportage.

Thanks to this story I finally had enough, canceled my NYT subscription and told them why. They nicely asked me to stay for $4/month for a year instead of $20. No thanks. Would have subscribed for life. I’ll go give some to you guys now, thanks for highlighting this mess.

Trump is screaming for CBS to “lose its license.” I think a lot of corporate media are betting he’ll spare them his wrath if they don’t hurt his feelings too much.

They’re wrong.

“We don’t know what kind of malignant sickness is metastasizing throughout the political newsroom at the Times. And we don’t know what’s going to happen on November 5.”

Shocker, the NYT’s has a fascination with Nazi fascists. I guess we all missed the Time’s tribute to Hitler when he was alive; calling him a man who learned his lesson after being jailed for the failed Beer Hall Putsch. Ironically, that was Hitler’s first attempted Coup d'état.

Newsflash NYT’s: Eventually Hitler takes control of Germany and destroys most of the world and Europe. Of course, the NYT’s know this, since they were one of Hitler’s biggest enablers, telling anyone who would listen that he was a great leader, and wouldn’t enact most of his most draconian policies. And the rest is history!

In addition, why should any one of us be shocked by the Time’s sane-washing Trump’s unhinged mixed word salad buffets? They are the Trump whispers, who can disseminate any incoherent Trump speech, and find some nuggets of truth or logic, even when such gibberish, eludes the rest of us.

That said, these are the same clowns who knowingly supported the Bush administration’s invasion of Iraq. Not to mention, the held a story on Bush’s illegal spying operation on Americans for a year. They only released the story when they learned that one of their competitors was about to go to press.

Bottom line: the Time’s has always been a joke, but sadly, they now resemble nothing more than a bad punchline! Good riddance!….:)

Also they had a correspondent in Russia who sane-washed Stalin's behavior and never mentioned the Holodomor, which is why so many Americans still don't know it happened!
