It would be great, and a bit of karma, for the large influential Times to be come a large, influential conservative newspaper.
“It would be great, and a bit of karma, for the large influential Times to be come a large, influential conservative newspaper.”
Yea, it would indeed be great to see the old gray lady go down. But, sadly, I smell another bail-out coming. Obama and fellow dem’s are not about to let this happen.
Let it die. Millions of trees will be saved.
I read this fantasy that the Times only recently went hard left which is BS. Walter Duranty won a Pulitzer in the 1930s writing fawning pieces on Stalin as Uncle Joe starved 6 million Ukrainians. Duranty knew it and knew Stalin was a monster.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Soros keeps the Slimes afloat.
I’ve heard rumors of a government bail out for the Times and other news dinosaurs. This would ordinarily outrage most citizens (can you say Pravda?), but we are quickly becoming numb to bail outs....so what is one more? One thing is for certain; you can’t force people to read the Times or buy GM cars. However, I see the Times becoming much like NPR, heavily subsidized and having very few readers.
The NY Times is not a newspaper, it is just a tabloid stuffed with bull shit.
“It would be great, and a bit of karma, for the large influential Times to be (be)come a large, influential conservative newspaper.”
From your mouth to God’s ear!
Universal government-paid health care would amount to a huge subsidy for the Times organization.
YES!!!!!!!
I'd like to be there too, when this rust bucket of a newspaper hits the iceberg. Pulizter or no Pulizter, The New York Times has been, no pun intended, living on borrowed time for the past twenty or so years, and as O'Reilly correctly (for once) pointed out, the paper's hatred of President Bush has cost them more than a lion's share of readers. And like the train wreck that it is, the Times has many of its fellow print and broadcast counterparts hitched on and they're all going over the cliff at breakneck speed.
I say good riddance to them all.
By some miracle should the Times become a successful conservative paper I would think it would become a positive influence on the remaining enemedia, an event that leftists would do anything to prevent.
An astute entrepeneur can fill the vaccuum with a good conservative paper.
Perhaps it could become a subsidiary of Freerepublic! :o)
I’d be willing to join an effort like that.
The real question is “can a good newspaper survive in a bad market like Cesspool City?”
The Left cannot let the NYT fail.
A bailout will happen. Whether taxpayer-funded, or privately-funded, it will happen.
King Obama will never let the NYT go under. Bailout coming.
I agree.. Prez O smiley face, will not let the NYT go under.
