WASHINGTON, October 21, 2008—As The New York Times increasingly comes under fire for an October 18 story that delved into Cindy McCain’s personal life, a prominent critic of the paper is calling for a boycott of what he terms “America’s newspaper of wretched.” Don Feder, the editor of the Boycott The New York Times website http://boycottnyt.com, says the lengths that The Times went to in order to “trash” Mrs. McCain is further proof of a relentless pro-Obama bias at the newspaper.
“How low will The New York Times go to trash John McCain and his wife Cindy? Think the bellies of snakes – lower than which you cannot go,” writes Feder in an article posted October 20 at BoycottNYT.com. He adds, “We will wait in vain for The Times to unleash its investigative pit bulls on the personal lives of Barack and Michelle Obama.”
Noting that the story focused on Cindy McCain’s previously reported, past addiction to painkillers, Feder takes The Times to task for neglecting to probe certain aspects of Barack Obama’s drug use, such as “1. Who supplied Obama with drugs when he was an addict? 2. What substances did he use besides cocaine? 3. When did his addiction end?”
Writing about a recent editorial in which The Times accuses the McCain campaign of “entering the dark territory of racism and xenophobia,” – but offering no evidence to support the charge – Feder says McCain could legitimately have made an issue of Obama’s 19-year association with anti-American demagogue Jeremiah Wright, “but has thus far refrained from doing so, for fear of inciting racial passions.”
Feder declares, “As the campaign winds down to the last two weeks, The Times becomes increasingly reckless in its charges and biased in its reporting.”

My username says it all.
I will also boycott “caveman insurance” and all other businesses that contributed to left causes.
Why would someone stop reading it now, when it's no different than before? Anyone reading that cr@p is a self-described idiot.
Already done.
I havn’t bought that rag in years.
.........what about the many who have boycotted that NYT rag for decades already? I guess if we ever visited their website we could boycott that, too, eh?
I’m ahead of the curve, I’ve been boycotting them my whole life. Well, unless a few words are posted here.
Been doin' so for 34 years and countin'...:-)
I’d like to find out IF Obama did indeed stop using drugs.
all the news not fit to print, wrap fish, line parrot cages with.....
I’ve been boycotting the NY Slimes and the LA Slimes for years.
Not just the NYTimes, but every newspaper or media outlet which distorts McCain, and worships Obama.
Cancel the paper or magazine.
Get a list of all advertisers to that paper or TV station or network, and make it a point of writing or calling those advertisers and tell them you will NEVER EVER give them your business as long as they advertise in an anti-JudeoChristian publication.
Cancelling the paper feels good, but does little to sway an editor or publisher.
I’ve been in newsrooms, and reporters all gather around and laugh whenever someone calls in and threatens to cancel.... because they know that most of those people will eventually return.
Pro-Obama newspapers are often the only newspaper in town, and they know it.
Get mad. Get serious, and make your convictions stick.
Somebody will give the Times or Post the Ayers treatment one of these days.
It’s inevitable.
Sorry. Can’t boycot them. I have never subscribed.
I’ll do better than that. I won’t even GLANCE at the NYT when I’m at Starbucks or the grocery store.
For me, boycotting the NYT is like a non-taxpayer getting a tax break. We’re going into negative numbers here, and pretty soon I’m going to start having anything I’ve read from them in the past surgically removed.
May the God of Moses strike the NYT with Lightning and burn it down.
They say never pick a fight with someone who buys ink by the barrel - that was yesterday’s views - Look what Jesse Jackson did with his gangster boycotts. A concerted effort will produce results.
NYT have always been a Leftist newspaper. They hire very good Leftist writers, win awards, and appeal to the “Can Not Park A Bicycle Straight Intelligentsia”.
We should also launch, (Stop calling them Liberals- They are Living Room Leftist). America was founded buy Liberals(They created the Right to be left alone by government).
I heard Hannity ask the questions Feder asks in this article. Who was Obama’s drug connection? (Ayers and his gang?) When did he really stop the drugs, if ever? (Sometimes he looks pretty loopy lately—maybe the urgent trip to Hawaii is for an emergency jiffy rehab?)
Why don’t we hear about what clinic he went to to get straight? Or if he attended NA meetings in Chitown?
Did he ever deal drugs? How did he pay tuition at expensive schools, when he asserts he was a “poor” student?
These questions deserve answers. Before the election.
