Times are tough all over for the liberal media. CNN and MSNBC have lost a painful amount of their already small audiences, the Washington Post is retooling their approach because people stopped reading, and now the same whirlwind has reached the New York Times.
The liberal paper is telling members of their editorial board to take new positions at the paper, or take a buyout, and a walk, presumably.
Over the last eight years, vast swaths of the American media torpedoed whatever credibility they had left in their pursuit of Trump. They pushed countless lies and conspiracy theories and now the chickens are coming home to roost.
The New York Post reports:
NY Times tells editorial board writers: Accept new position or take buyout
The New York Times is reshuffling its operations at the opinion section — reducing the frequency of its editorials while shrinking its roster of editorial board writers, according to a report.
The Gray Lady has reportedly offered several of its editorial board members new jobs within the opinion section or buyout packages if they choose to leave the company.
Mara Gay (who is frequently seen on left-leaning news channel MSNBC), Brent Staples, Jesse Wegman and Farah Stockman are editorial board members who were given the option of accepting a buyout, the news site Semafor reported on Monday.
“Publishing fewer, higher-quality editorials, the thesis goes, will lead to more audience attention,” according to the Semafor report.
The Times is also mulling possible changes to its endorsement policy, including backing candidates in races across the country, according to Semafor.

Maybe they could sell their Russia Collusion Pulitzer for a few bucks!
They have their mighty messiah god, odongo, to thank for it.
In 2012 or 2015, when he repealed that law holding them somwhat accountable to the truth, they were allowed to lie without consequence. They became a lying mouthpiece for the left....they became PRAVDA.
It took awhile, but folks finally figured out what they really were and treated em accordingly with distrust and disrespect.
A couple of years ago O’Keefe sued the Times.
Whatever happened to that?
They’re responding to Trump’s cutting off their USAID spigot.
No more USAID money. Therefore, they have to rely on market forces.
Awww gee... lol
God I wish Rush were here to see all this.
“Publishing fewer, higher-quality editorials, the thesis goes, will lead to more audience attention…”
The fewer part is easy. But the NYT is incapable of producing higher quality.

That could actually be worth quite a bit more than a few bucks, as Pres. Trump’s case against the Pulitzer board was allowed to continue today.
“Hate Trump? You’re hired!”
I know. That is why I said it.
“Publishing fewer, higher-quality editorials, the thesis goes, will lead to more audience attention,”
FEWER editorials results in MORE attention? Maybe that makes sense on some level, but I’m missing it.
Too late.

But, since every "news article" has editorial content, that might prove to be problematic.
