In 1963 the NY Times changed their “stylebook” stating that the perpetrators of crimes would no longer be identified by “race.” This newspaper died as a purveyor of “truth” at that moment, although it was softly “progressive” prior to that. To call it the “newspaper of record” has to be, at the most, satire. They have been propagandist scum for a long time. This stylebook change was announced during my Introduction to Journalism class in 1963 and was the reason I decided NOT to go into Journalism.
As Holmes said to Watson, "you were at the precipice."
I congratulate you on the saving of your soul.
The “purveyor of truth” moniker hasn’t been applicable since they began publishing Walter Duranty’s drivel.
It died long, long, before that.
While 30 MILLION people were starved to death in Ukraine, the NYT told the world everything was fine over there.
