Maher: NYT Is Just a Democratic Party Instrument
Breitbart ^ | 05/11/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 05/11/2024 11:49:23 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher reacted to New York Times Executive Editor Joe Kahn arguing that the paper shouldn’t be an instrument for the Biden campaign and only write negative stories about Republicans while writing solely positive stories about Biden by stating that this is what the paper does now.

Maher said, “Now that I’m doing interviews…the big question that people are asking me, I see every interviewer ask the same question, which is like, you make fun of the left a lot more than you used to. Yes, I do, because they’re goofier and more obnoxious than they used to be. It doesn’t mean I’ve turned into a Republican. I haven’t changed on that at all. They also just became weirder. They’re still not the threat the Republicans are. But I do both.”

NYT has declined in value since it’s peak as a printed newspaper. At that point it would be used on the kitchen floors to train a puppy or on the bottom of a bird cage.
Not it’s online so worthless.

Peter Sellers as Sir Grand Guy in The Magic Christian about the failing Boston newspaper he bought:
“This used to be a paper with a heart-—and a circulation.”

Yeah.

But better late than never and the low info sheeple types need people like Bill Maher to tell them things or they don’t believe it.

So, absurd as it is that he’s just saying it now, it’s good he says it.

The following FR report is is illustrative of the complicit
media covering for the smug, self serving Biden crime machine:
<><>Wash/Post, NYT, ABC, NBC, WSJ, Fox, NPR, Reuters, Bloomberg top journos
<><>actually submitted to Biden-inflicted indignity
<><>attending “several briefings” on “what they’re getting wrong”
<><>then were told how Biden “wanted” Trump covered
<><>the “do as we say” meetings had been “substantive” and “productive,”
<><>journo lapdogs lapping up Biden’s “coverage spreadsheet”
<><>even earning a Biden “A for obedience.”

Maybe maher taking a lesson from the great Johnny Carson.
He made jokes about both parties and limited the jokes to just three each.
Otherwise it seemed like a tirade against one and ignoring the others.

I remember the 1980 election year and Johnny slammed both Carter and Reagan.
I occasionally scan the late night shows and it’s always, always against Trump or the GOP even when Biden is the lowest hanging fruit.
That’s why Gutfeld is the closest to Carson today, there are no sacred goats on his show and it’s always funny.
It’s the reason he’s the “king of late night shows” in the ratings!

This self-aggrandizing assclown has seen what the Demonic Party has done to this country and still suggests that they aren’t the threat the Republicans are... what an ignorant dumbass.

I recognize that there’s a lot of folks who don’t like Maher.

So all I will say is that he really has lam-blasted, critiqued several of the far leftists’ pet “programs” like their racist approach to almost everything...

... and he has criticized the D’s very effectively, too (in that he has a definite talent for his satirical monologues)...
Humor is just about the most efficacious way to get a message through to people)

just saying....let’s give Maher credit for what he does right. is all

And they were all thrilled about being with Biden, until he showed them what was really in his “BRIEFS”!

Looks like the smarter and more independent members of the media have figured out Trump is going to be re elected. They want to be on the winning side and are breaking ranks with the TDS crowd .

Ever wonder why a schmoo like Biden went into politics?

He tried being a peeping tom but that flopped......he couldnt get bothered.

Is Maher finally growing up a little bit?
