Michael Goodwin on 'Fox & Friends': The New York Times 'has created a monster'
Fox News ^ | David Montanaro

Fox News contributor Michael Goodwin believes The New York Times "has created a monster" by giving its readers a steady diet of anti-Trump headlines over the past three years.

On "Fox & Friends" Tuesday, Goodwin discussed his new column in the New York Post, where he argues that the Times has changed more than any other news organization in recent years.

Goodwin wrote, "The mandate of opinion-free news coverage was tossed overboard during the heated 2016 presidential election, and the paper now displays its bias on every page. The quaint motto is still there, but these days the Times doesn’t cover the news as much as promote an agenda. As it says repeatedly, the paper has a 'mission.' The mission is obvious: The Times aims to elect left-wing Democrats to virtually every office in the land and transform America culturally, educationally and politically."

Goodwin emphasized the recent backlash against the paper over a headline that was not seen as sufficiently critical of the president's response to the mass shootings in Dayton and El Paso. A later edition of the paper included an updated headline, triggering criticism of Executive Editor Dean Baquet for bowing to the Twitter-fuel pressure.

When was the Times ever unbiased?

There is a reason Trump’s label of “fake news” resonates so well with the public. We have seen the bias for decades.

created a monster

I always turn to known propaganda sources when I want to get to the bottom of what is really going on.

Fortunately for the Times, most of the reporting comes from the AP and Reuters which are already far to the left. The Times just has to rip and print.

Muck raking has a long and proud tradition in the US. The only problem I see is the veneer of credibility that was added during the previous century. Now we once again have the rag trade exposed for what it is. No problem with that.

Wow, when I came up with my tagline, I didn’t realize how “spot on” it really was/is.
Never having actually read the Times, sometimes I wonder what “inspired” my thought.
