While campaigning in 2007-08 Obama visited many newsrooms where he quietly floated the idea of newspaper bailouts. This increased his popularity with the print media. After Obama was inaugurated a couple of Democrats in Congress wrote a bill to that would have provided federal money to failing big city newspapers. Even with big Democrat majorities in both houses the bill was shot down.

Who are the Times advertisers? They need to be publicly boycotted by the right until they stop. A concerted boycott could put the Times under. It should only be a start.

I would love to have the funds it would take to buy it, then make Matt Drudge, Ann Coulter or Jerome Corsi Editor in Chief!

NYT's new editor, imported from the BBC( of all places) starts new job this week. He's been implicated in the rapidly expanding BBC sex scandal..and may not last the year. Another great job by Pinch...

The Times is just about all out of stuff left to sell off to keep funding the losses

NYT’s big-spending pundit, Nobel Prize Joker, Paul Krugman, doesn’t have any comments?

That moron Sulzberger thinks the answer to his mismanagement of this piece of crap is to go internet and establish a paywall. If they won’t buy it in print why would they buy it on the internet. Paying for the Times propaganda rag on the internet is as popular an idea as paying for a case of digital herpes.

There will. Be no “death” of the NYTimes. It, like all drive-by major outlets, will be directly subsidized by the DNC. It’s only a. Matter of time.

The Times advertising is likely too expensive for most users. The large ads are targeted to the 0.1% wealthy. Monster and other services are superior places for help-wanted ads. So, the advertising base for non-premium items is moving away to Craig’s List, Ebay, and community papers, and the help-wanted print ads are shrinking.

The NYT has tried to monetize its material on line, but who wants to register and wind up on their advertising and junk email list?

This is exactly what needed to happen. Romney would have simply enabled this the dysfunction, corruption, and nepotism between the government/market/media pillars of our society to continue. Without truth we will never succeed. The media is in bed with the enemy, and. It is money that makes her bend over at will. The market and the government have a revolving door between them that exchanges employees, favors, and money. It has to stop.

HEY!! I just realized...WHEN the Times goes down the drain, I’ll be forced to come up with a NEW tagline for FR.
I’ve been so proud of it. But, frankly, I’m already working on my new line in gleeful anticipation.
Oh happy day!!

You might remember that at one point this regime proposed subsidizing the “mainstream” media. (A good way to control it completely.) Is this the opening to try it again?

"Mitt Romney is about as dangerous as a cold cup of decaffeinated coffee."

Ew. Maybe that's why he lost.

I've been saying for years that most employees of the MSM today are mere skid marks on Journalism's shorts.. Maybe Journalism heard me and said to himself

"Hmm, why do I care what that little nobody thinks. Then on the other hand it's been decades since I washed my underwear. . . ."

President Obama has shown a firm commitment to using government to help foster growth.
5 trillion in debt hell of a job.

I used to like reading their non-political articles. I fought off the urge to subscribe to the online when it became paid. And now I refuse to even click on their website -- let their number of hits drop

it's better to go to www.telegraph.co.uk
