New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay has been defended by her bosses after saying she was 'disturbed' by the number of stars and stripes flags on display during a trip to Long Island.
The paper's official PR Twitter account backed Gay on Tuesday night, tweeting: 'New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay's comments on MSNBC have been irresponsibly taken out of context.'
'Her argument was that Trump and many of his supporters have politicized the American flag. The attacks on her today are ill-informed and grounded in bad-faith.'

Welcome to Long Island, bitch!
Hating America as much as the left does why should they get any claim upon the flag at all?
These people must be destroyed. There’s no other way.
funny how the left accuse others of always taking them out of context (When the right doesn’t actually do so), but when the left criticize the right for anything, why words always matter then-
Must be a universal excuse by these maggots. That witch that said she dreams about shooting all whites said she was taken out of context too.
Explain how one politicizes the american flag. By actually flying it? By not wearing it as a bathing suit or unitard?
Further her being disturbed is not a valid argument for anything.
Nonsense.
The first people to burn the American flag, call it free speech, and take it the the Supreme Court were the ones who "politicized the American Flag."
Now we all have to live with the consequences.

I read her ENTIRE ARTICLE. There was nothing “out of context” about it.
She was disturbed by the display of the American flag.
‘New York times editorial board member ‘
I think I see the problem.
The flag has been politicized for as long as there have been flags. This “unbiased journalist” is perfectly fine when democRATS do it, but she doesn’t like it when the other side does it too.
There is no context in which her comments are acceptable
taken of contexts is their escape to be able to say anything and get away with it once its released and its out there
She said it. I heard/saw it. F***k this commie bitch and the computer she uses against America.
“Her argument was that Trump and many of his supporters have politicized the American flag.”
Biden’s people used thousands of American flags at his inauguration to hide the fact that people were not there.
More absolute nonsense. The American flag stands for the American Spirit. Trump simply appeals to those who support the American Spirit. The vaunted NYT does not.
so, it’s the so overused ‘context’ defense, eh?
Well, if the quoted comments are untrue, then it should be simple to prove.
If ‘context’ is the issue, perhaps this ‘writer’ should consider a new line of work.
every time a lefty gets caught, it was “taken out of context”
another mouthy dark skinned girl flapping her gums about how unhappy she is in the USA. Move. Wakanda is nice this time of year.
Absolutely laughable considering the number of times those leftists deliberately misinterpret and take ANY conservative thought out of context. They are the masters of this victim tactic.
The effort by the “New York Times” to deodorize the words of Mara Gay fails to understand that once a skunk lets go of its spray, you can’t undo its stink.
