Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

how'd the nyt turn a windfall of subscribers into failing in such a short time?

Paul krugman has written essentially the exact same article twice a week for a decade and probably has a sweet house from it.

Making fun of infinite jest isn't the same as making fun of DFW. His essays are outstanding. But whoever called his work middlebrow hit the nail on the head.

If the west goes to war with Iran I just cross my fingers that someone burns down their offices and salts the earth in retaliation for decades of calling for it.

i think some people made some good criticisms of DFW and then people just jumped on the band wagon so it's really cool to hate him now

ya, and those people are kind of stupid and kind of self-important imo

I do wonder if they've lost any of those subscribers because I remember bball during the DAPL protests I knew a centrist w/o wouldn't trust any articles from Native news sources but would only trust the "neutral" New York Times

They were buying out copy editors

After 2016 I'm not sure how anyone can take NYTimes seriously, and their effort to "correct" mistakes is even more embarrassing. Story for story they're great, especially on non-political domestic coverage, but overall it's another poo poo media company sucking up to whoever is in power.

Also the latest subscription gimmick with Spotify was pretty cringe worthy

NYT's on the ground reporter was also incredibly tone deaf article.

Her twitter has the original title for her piece

https://twitter.com/SherylNYT/status/896509241288265730

And then she tweeted this

https://twitter.com/SherylNYT/status/896575560650035200

(Also I'm pretty sure she doesn't even mention some of the other terrible poo poo like a black teen almost getting beaten to death and a church having to be evacuated because of the fash)

And I'm going to bet that they're going to swarm to Kessler's press conference because there's nothing media likes more than giving fascists a national platform apparently.
