[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s an unfortunate accident and they should address it and apologize for the accidental offense. (There’s is actually a whole thing about accidentally creating a swastika pattern in quilts and I can imagine the crossword layout presents similar issues. Nevertheless, they shouldn’t ignore it!) [/quote] Jewish and agree it's probably an unfortunate accident but how in the heck did no one catch this - it's obvious on first glance.[/quote] Not Jewish and agree. I do the crossword most days (but hadn’t done it yesterday) and my husband asked if I’d seen it. So I opened it and saw the issue immediately, but I also can believe the designer was seeing a whirlpool shape and likely had no part in picking when his puzzle would run. Buuuuut, the NYT shouldn’t ignore an unfortunate coincidence and pretend it is NBD. Let’s not normalize swastikas. Not ever, but certainly not in the current climate. [/quote]
