(145,827 posts)43. Ignoring facts will NOT make these facts go away
I am a former college debater and a member of the bar. In the real world, one uses facts to support their arguments or claims. I am amused that some posters are unable to deal with facts and are unable to support their arguments. In the real world, the opinions of non-experts are given no weight.
Here are some more examples of biased coverage by the NYT that can be ignored or not dealt with.
The NYT and Haberman were determined to elect TFG and carried this story for an unreal number of times

Compare the NYT treatment of Clinton to how Haberman and the NYT treats TFG

The above examples are NOT responsible reporting.
I do not want to be poorly informed by a rag that worked hard to elect TFG and is now trying to re-elect TFG. I cancelled my subscription to the NYT back in 2016. The NYT does not fairly report the issues and the NYT and Maggie Haberman helped elect TFG.
The OP is yet another example of biased coverage by the NYT

FWIW, I've lived long enough to agree with you 100% about the NYT. It's always the "Judas" of the 'liberal' media.

As you suggest, the NYT has a history of blindering the reading public, e.g. during the holocaust

And here's the New Republic also calling out Trump's use of the term and pointing out how it's "straight-up Nazi talk."

Jarringly illogical: You blame the DNC for NYT's blatantly biased headlines.
