Silent white light filled the world. And the righteous and unrighteous alike were consumed in that holy fire.
As much as the feuding members of the United Nations Security Council might like Hans Blix and Mohamed ElBaradei to settle the question of war or peace with Iraq, these two mild-mannered civil servants can't make that fateful judgment. All they can do, which they did again yesterday, is to tell the Council how their inspection efforts are faring. So-so was the answer. It's up to the Council members -- especially the veto-wielding quintet of the United States, Britain, France, Russia and China -- to decide whether Iraq is disarming.

In our judgment, Iraq is not. The only way short of war to get Saddam Hussein to reverse course at this late hour is to make clear that the Security Council is united in its determination to disarm him and is now ready to call in the cavalry to get the job done. America and Britain are prepared to take that step. The time has come for the others to quit pretending that inspections alone are the solution.

who needs to have a budget for the regular old news when you can exploit desperate young people to write for pennies/exposure and then staff a nice expensive op-ed department for the lovely pieces that are the only real part of your "brand"

Its a great model because they will never run out of twenty-somethings who think they have important ideas and correct takes that absolutely must be shared with the world at any cost

the NYT has always been a lovely purveyor of fake news and this isn't a recent phenomenon
https://williamblum.org/chapters/killing-hope/introduction

quote:

By the end of 1919, when the defeat of the Allies and the White Army appeared likely, the New York Times treated its readers to headlines and stories such as the following:

30 Dec. 1919: “Reds Seek War With America”
9 Jan. 1920: “‘Official quarters’ describe the Bolshevist menace in the Middle East as ominous”
11 Jan. 1920: “Allied officials and diplomats [envisage] a possible invasion of Europe”
13 Jan. 1920: “Allied diplomatic circles” fear an invasion of Persia
16 Jan. 1920: A page-one headline, eight columns wide:

*"Britain Facing War With Reds, Calls Council In Paris."*

"Well-informed diplomats" expect both a military invasion of Europe and a Soviet advance into Eastern and Southern Asia.

The following morning, however, we could read:

*"No War With Russia, Allies To Trade With Her"*
7 Feb. 1920: “Reds Raising Army To Attack India”

11 Feb. 1920: “Fear That Bolsheviki Will Now Invade Japanese Territory”

Readers of the New York Times were asked to believe that all these invasions were to come from a nation that was shattered as few nations in history have been; a nation still recovering from a horrendous world war; in extreme chaos from a fundamental social revolution that was barely off the ground; engaged in a brutal civil war against forces backed by the major powers of the world; its industries, never advanced to begin with, in a shambles; and the country in the throes of a famine that was to leave many millions dead before it subsided.

In 1920, The New Republic magazine presented a lengthy analysis of the news coverage by the New York Times of the Russian Revolution and the intervention. Amongst much else, it observed that in the two years following the November 1917 revolution, the Times had stated no less than 91 times that “the Soviets were nearing their rope’s end or actually had reached it.”

just search through the book Killing Hope for New York Times for many egregious examples
