When you receiving a devastating fact-check by the Twitter account of an NFL football team, it might be time to delete your newspaper.

That very thing occurred on Wednesday, when the New York Times tweeted out two photos comparing the number of Patriots coaches and players who attended in 2015, when Obama was president, versus how many attended on Wednesday with President Trump:

"Patriots’ turnout for President Obama in 2015 vs. Patriots’ turnout for President Trump today: https://t.co/OxMEOqZonI pic.twitter.com/pLmJWhOw1j"

— NYT Sports (@NYTSports) April 19, 2017

Clearly, the tweet makes the Obama White House visit look significantly better attended than the Trump visit. However, the Patriots quickly pounced on the Times’ attempt at partisan photography:

"These photos lack context. Facts: In 2015, over 40 football staff were on the stairs. In 2017, they were seated on the South Lawn. https://t.co/iIYtV0hR6Y"

— New England Patriots (@Patriots) April 20, 2017

NYT part of Opposition Party

NYT lies to American people. Lying is a form of war deception. NYT treats the American people like an enemy. We are at war.

Yes, more lies and deception to feed the disgusting left. It is how they stay in business. It is what they do...it is ALL they do.

When you can’t even write your opening sentence in proper grammatical style, it might be time to find a new line of work.

Glad for the news here, but I certainly wish “Breitbart” and other sites would raise their writing standards.
