SHAMEFUL: NY Times Magazine's Cover Story: Speech Threatens Democracy

October 21st, 2020 10:24 AM

Emily Bazelon, staff writer for the New York Times Sunday magazine, earned its newest cover story – an 8,000-word jeremiad against free speech. The cover itself was ironic and oh-so-clever: “Free Speech Will Save Our Democracy,” with an online-style warning label overlaid that suggests such thinking is naive: “Disputed by Third-Party Fact Checkers.” Bazelon’s screed is more relevant…

October 20th, 2020 10:36 PM

MSNBC’s The ReidOut kept up its hateful view on Tuesday of those that don’t side with host Joy Reid and her panel of shameless liberal partisans, insisting that Republicans not in the vein of Michael Steele and the Lincoln Project are “cowardly.” But the worst take came from New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay falsely claiming The Times is “actually not…

Cowardly NY Times: ‘Anti-Islamist’ for France to Condemn Decapitation

October 17th, 2020 9:37 AM

The New York Times stoked Democratic fears of Trump-inspired political violence in Friday’s “Fears of Political Violence Rise as Trump’s Language Heats Up.” The paper shamelessly linked President Trump to acts of “right-wing” violence all over the country: "The arrest of more than a dozen right-wing extremists who are accused of targeting the governors of Michigan and Virginia is only…

October 16th, 2020 10:05 PM

A half-century after Republican presidential candidate Barry Goldwater was slimed by psychiatrists as dangerous and unstable, now national security reporters for the New York Times are pitching in.
