The New York Times has just announced the resignation of James Bennet, the Editorial Page Editor who allowed Tom Cotton’s “Send in the Troops” op-ed into print. It triggered leftists, including over 800 staffers at the Times who signed a protest letter.
The paper is wholly and entirely corrupt. His deputy was also reassigned.
What a disgrace and the 800 staffers are hateful and a disgrace.
This is awful. 17 years ago, Howell Raines had to quit as editor of the NYT because a reporter he’d championed had made up stories and other reporters were rightly furious. Today James Bennet had to quit because his page ran an op-ed – FROM A SENATOR – that made reporters mad… https://t.co/SB99FBMp8c

SEND IN THE TROOPS
Tom Cotton’s article called for the President to “Send in the Troops” to stop the rioting, looting, and restore order. A recent poll found that 58% of Americans agree with that opinion.
As the backlash grew, Jerry Dunleavy at DC Examiner wrote, “An op-ed from a U.S. senator did not meet the editorial standards of the @nytimes, but op-eds by Vladimir Putin, Nicolas Maduro, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and the Taliban did.”
I haven't seen this much turmoil at @nytimes since they published a defense of pedophilia. The staff were very upset, multiple resignations, editors' notes, etc.
Just kidding, apparently not a single member of the @nytimes woke mob cared.https://t.co/nh2UER2VIz

The mob already won the battle.
Now they’re just executing POWs. https://t.co/ZHuwJWUZVF— John Noonan (@noonanjo) June 7, 2020

WTF do 800 “staffers” do all week? That’s 32,000 person hours per week or 1,600,000 person hours per year.
I bet you could produce the same product with 80 “staffers.”
So much for freedom of any kind…much less “speech”…The fact that the midget brained leftist dingbats in the MSM and social media are censoring themselves and promoting bias exemplifies their rank ignorance and stupidity…
“ALL CAPS” makes your comment very important.
Offends your sensibilities eh??? Guess you ARE a loyal subscriber???
WE KNOW FOR SURE THE TIMES IS NO LONGER NEWS… TIME TO QUIT YOUR SUBSCRIPITION
Communist newspaper without a doubt.
