Newsflash from The New York Times: Women may have starved under socialist regimes, but their orgasms were out of this world!
That's the creepy gist of one of the Grey Lady's recent essays this summer hailing the "Red Century." The paper's ongoing series explores "the history and legacy of Communism, 100 years after the Russian Revolution." When its essayists aren't busy championing the great sex that oppressed women enjoyed in miserable Eastern Bloc countries, they're extolling Lenin's fantabulous conservationist programs and pimping "Communism for Kids" propaganda.
Since this is back-to-school season, it's the perfect time to teach your children about faux journalism at the Fishwrap of Record. As the publication's pretentious own new slogan asserts, "The truth is more important than ever."
While the Times hyperventilates about the dangers of President Trump's "art of fabrication" and "Russian collusion," this is the same organization whose famed correspondent in Russia, Walter Duranty, won a Pulitzer Prize for spreading fake news denying Joseph Stalin's Ukrainian genocide.
An estimated 10 million men, women and children starved in the Stalin-engineered silent massacre between 1932-1933, also known as the Holodomor. Stalin had implemented his "Five Year Plan" of agricultural collectivization -- confiscating land and livestock, evicting farmers, and imposing impossible grain production quotas. At the peak of the famine, about 30,000 Ukrainian citizens a day were dying. Untold numbers resorted to cannibalism.
But you wouldn't know it if you perused all the phony ground reports filed by Duranty at the time. Based in Moscow since 1921, Duranty gained access to Stalin for a rare interview in 1930. Two years later, Duranty won the Pulitzer Prize for 13 typewritten tongue baths with titles including, "Stalinism Solving Minorities Problems," Industrial Success Emboldens Soviet in New World Policy," and "Stalinism's Mark is Party Discipline."
And the rest is whitewashed history.
"There is no actual starvation or deaths from starvation, but there is widespread mortality from diseases due to malnutrition," Duranty asserted in March 1933.
Five months later, he wrote: "Any report of a famine in Russia is today an exaggeration or malignant propaganda."
Meanwhile, Duranty "had all the Beluga caviar that he could eat," Lee Edwards, a distinguished scholar and chairman of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation in Washington, D.C., told my CRTV.com show, "Michelle Malkin Investigates."
Historian Ron Radosh of the Hudson Institute added: "What (Duranty) did is file totally false, fake stories about how the people were thriving and doing well under Bolshevism and nothing was wrong and any rumors you hear of a famine in the Soviet Union were totally false, made up by enemies of the regime who wanted it to fall."
Robert Zapesochny, a New York writer and historian whose own grandfather survived the famine, blasted Duranty's pursuit of the prize over pursuit of the truth: "As long as there was an award that he could get for his coverage he would do anything." Zapesochny minces no words about Duranty:
"The guy was a whore."
But Robert Conquest, the whistleblower who chronicled Duranty's agitprop in his book "The Harvest of Sorrow," noted that the Times still clung to their Commie correspondent and his lethal lies, lauding his "dispassionate, interpretive reporting of the news from Russia" a half-century after being debunked.
Now, 85 years after Stalinist tool Duranty snagged his Pulitzer (which the journalism pooh-bahs refuse to withdraw and the Times' editors refuse to renounce), the paper has the gall to lecture everyone else about truth, lies and accountability. And it's still shilling for collectivism.
The Red York Times: First in fake news and progenitor of alternative facts.
Thank you for posting Kaslin.
She is real news.
She sure is. You’re very welcome.
NYet Times is cited by Fakebook and others as a “go to source” for determining which articles are “fake news”.
Google too cites NYet Times for debunking “fake history”. Google says that they are going to downtrend search results to sites that promote hate and false history.
The Reds are doing it publicly. Denying the willful death of a hundred million due to global Communism.
Yeah. The Old Grey Whore probably maintains to this day that Alger Hiss was not a Russian agent.
Nuke Silicon Valley.
That’s the NY Slimes for ya, fake it till they make it. This shows that socialism in any form, including naziism is such an abject failure. With each passing generation of useful idiots it needs to be repackaged and marketed as something new and REVOLUTIONARY. Much like those sleazy late night infomercials and free lunch seminars pushing the same old get rich quick scams as some new found discovery to achieve instant wealth. Whether it’s buying real estate with no $$$ down. Making a killing in stocks regardless of market conditions. Spending thousands on the latest snake oil to sell while building a downline or some other mathematically impossible MLM/pyramid racket. They’ll tell you other systems failed because they were implemented the wrong way, but THEY have a PROVEN SYSTEM that works. (Those four deadly words ) THIS TIME IT’S DIFFERENT! And, like the hippies and yippees half a century ago, this current crop of ANTIFAGS,BLMers, snowflakes, for all their pseudo intellectualism and naiveté fall for this crap like so many brainwashed little puppies.

"Because their kid is looking out the window at me!"

I would strongly recommend that these employers of the lying thief Walter Duranty adopt some key Bolshevik labor practices. One was the “Subbotnik”, in which the one day workers had off each week was no longer the Sabbath (Bolsheviks don’t believe in such things) but where these happy employees would “voluntarily” do free public service work such as painting government buildings. That way, there would be no wasted time on frivolous things like leisure, travel, rest, union organizing (no need for such things in a worker’s paradise) or religious observance.
There is an excellent book about Joseph McCarthy called “Blacklisted by History”, and the author (M. Stanton Evans) is, in my opinion, the most accomplished and truthful historian of the McCarthy Era I have read.
(he was a cub reporter at the time it was going on)
In his studies, he found things in the New York Times that were just outright false. He had much correspondence with their organization, and when they didn’t outright simply ignore him, refused to print retractions of glaring, obvious, and important errors they had made.
Which leads one to the truthful conclusion that their errors are not by accident.
There are new books decrying the so called ‘witch hunts’ that never once reference the released Soviet files naming names and exposing front groups.
Bttt.

True. It is the liberal method...tell a lie, get it entrenched as history, and never look back or apologize.
If you haven’t read “Blacklisted by History”, I would highly recommend it.
I think Bezos Amazon’s Washington Post is even worse. They’ll come up with a fake news story and then every network and newspaper says, “The Washington Post is reporting .............. “. It is then repeated over and over .....

Its not for nothing that the publication is known as Pravda on The Hudson. It is a distinction it earned from what it produced.
