“an internal report in which the copy editors were compared to dogs urinating on fire hydrants.”

actually, quite an accurate simile when you think about it, namely copy editors editing the fictional tripe churned out by NYT “reporters”.

The entire staff is to blame for the failing balance sheet and the cause is entirely predictable. Once the famous NYT became a yellow journalism rag, full of fake news in the News sections, many respectable and educated readers on both sides of the aisle opted out.

Who needs all of these people just to pump out leftist fake news?

Buzzfeed does it with a fraction of the staff.

it's kindaofabitch when the illusions of these pampered, elitist masters of the universe suddenly go poof as they discover that they're actually nothing more than expendable salarymen being used by a, GASP, soulless, CAPITALIST megalith whose quest is to stay in BUSINESS via raking in more of that evil MONEY than they expend.

oh, the horror. the horror.

Hahaha. Watch the rotten rot even more. These putrid freaks all deserve to be on the streets looking for employment. By participating in this odorous organization so as to get a paycheck they colluded in undermining this civil society. They deserve no pity.

“Cutting us down to 50 to 55 editors from more than 100, and expecting the same level of quality in the report, is dumbfoundingly unrealistic,” the letter reads.

Yikes, they call this quality?! Can you imagine what’s to come?

In the copy editors’ letter to Baquet and Kahn, they say they feel betrayed and disrespected in the newsroom...

From my point of view, these hacks object to being treated like hacks, i.e., expendable propaganda generators-for-hire.

They used to write very well and I enjoyed the flow of their prose.

I just wish they would get something right. I haven’t picked it up for 3 decades.

I even enjoyed the opinion pieces of R.W. Appel as wrong headed as he always was. Call it my comedy entertainment for the day.

Basically it is now well written garbage.

The market for Fake News is drying up. Maybe these propagandists can be retrained to be coal miners.

The New York Times is about to become a victim of the de-massification of the media Alvin Toffler predicted 37 years ago in The Third Wave.

How bout trying to become a patriotic, respectable source of real news and nonpartisan watchdog investigation journalism for a change?
