BIZARRO WORLD: Jill Abramson Thinks NY Times Full of ‘Centrists’
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 07/16/2020 3:31:42 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Jill Abramson, the former executive editor of the Times, was a guest on Harris Faulkner's Fox News Channel show yesterday. Discussing the Weiss resignation, Abramson began by sloughing off Weiss's resignation as a "molehill," dismissing her as a "junior-level opinion editor."

Abramson then made two absurd assertions:

"The idea that the New York Times is edited by a cabal of left-wing journalists is just not true."

"I don’t think it’s true that moderate voices are being hushed at the New York Times. Most of the opinion columnists at the Times are centrists. They are center to liberal."

Everyone to the left of me is a fanatic, and everyone to the right of me is a heretic. The rest are in the “center”.

This is as stupid as Dan “Fake But Accurate” Rather making the same assertion about the New York Slimes.

When I first heard this wench nearly 40 years ago, I had to mute my TV. She had this droning, whiney voice I couldn’t stand. I find it hard to believe she’s still around.

They are center to liberal.

If by that you mean they are in close orbit around communism or fascism you are totally correct.

I saw that interview and sensed Harris was not pleased with the slimey equivocations of Abramson. Possibly Abramson is trying to get back in the good graces of the Times. That train has left the station.

The matched pair of Lefty swine, Jill Abramson and Jane Mayer, are nothing but propagandists for the Fascist American Left.

Abramson is so typically leftist out of touch she doesn’t know who she is. She figures, as do most leftist/Democrats that if her mouth moves she must use it.

A “centrist” is in fact a constitutional conservative. Mark Levin pointed this out last week. To follow the constitution is not “far right” as the left keeps tagging us. It’s centrist. It’s exactly how a citizen is suppose to be.

Not sure such a position is bizarre at all.

Two far left leaning idiots I have to deal with regularly honestly think they are centrist / moderates. They also believe most of the country thins as they do.

Centrists to her way of thinking just want to murder half the white people and imprison the rest. Left of center would be murder all the white people.
