.....New York Times Co. will take what is perhaps its most significant step into big-TV advertising by running a 30-second ad during ABC’s broadcast of the 2017 Oscars ceremonies. The commercial, which marks the first time the company has purchased an ad in the event, will not hew to the company’s traditional pitch. For most of the Times’ history, ads for its flagship publication have attempted to get would-be customers to respond quickly to an offer of a subscription at a reasonable introductory price. On Sunday, a stark ad will attempt to show the audience how the Times helps to discover the truth in what has quickly become a disorienting world.
Winning.
The SLIMES has to advertise to an audience that already worships the same little tin god as it does.
Trump is running roughshod over them.
The NYT has become an agenda-based rag that gave up journalism a long time ago. It wouldn’t know the truth if it bit it in the butt.
Failing NYT needs more liberal subscribers.
Talk about preaching to the already converted.
(snort)
Discover the “truth” with the New Yawk Times. Love it! The liberal snowflakes have totally lost it.
“If you think Meryl Streep gave a good, hate-filled rant against Donald Trump at the Golden Globes Awards, wait til you read our editorial page!”
“Hollywood can’t create a liberal, alternative universe fantasy world as good as what we put on our front page every day.”
The Oscars is becoming the focal point of the hard Left. The propaganda on that show is truly Orwellian. If the producers projected a giant portrait of Trump on a big screen, the entire audience would get up and howl at the image. Orwell’s orchestrated “two minutes of hate” would come to pass.
Maybe the focus of the ad should be “America doesn’t buy our bull sh!t lying crap, so you should...because you’re already vacant idiots anyway.”

NYT has become Air America in print. We know how successful Air America was (everywhere outside of Portland, Or).
Fake news media advertising on a fake awards show.
How apropos!
The great thing is that they are having to do this because their credibility is low.
The academy should give every nominee a participation award, have one person give the hate Trump speech for everyone, have Springsteen sing a hate Trump anthem where everyone can hold hands and give a lifetime achievement award to Obama.
60 minutes and they are out of there.
Bringing fish wrap to television; The New York Times latest alternative to printing news.
It’s a big echo chamber where they can hear the sound of their own voices. “A fool delights not in understanding, but in expressing his own opinion”, Proverbs 18:2.
Great post but you left out the homo/transgender hour and the remember the dead artists tributes.
Moving to TV? It’s already a saturated market.
disorienting world...thanks to their false, biased, and incomplete reporting.
