Who owns the New York Times?

[eyespysomething]

It's trickling down to smaller papers also. My husband got a hate-filled email from someone who disagreed on a story he wrote, and the guy, who doesn't know the Mr., called him a liar and asked if he worked for the NYT.

My hubby replied to him, and spelled out the facts in the story which this gentleman seemed to miss, and told him he needed to read the story before calling someone a liar. But what got to him the most was being compared to the NYT reporters. It was a hugh insult to him.

I don't think he is much longer in newspapers. He can't stand his editors, who would fit nicely on the NYT editorial board. Its a shame because he is a damn fine reporter who is always fighting the system to get his stories in.
