[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m confused.

Bari was a conservative voice when she was on staff at the NYT, but that was in comparison to her fellow colleagues. I’ve thought most of her stuff comes across as moderate rather than far right or left.

Admittedly, I haven’t followed her closely in recent years, but I can’t imagine she’s become some sort of rightwing nutjob. I mean, she’s a lesbian who has been fairly vocal on issues typically championed by the left.

I understand some might take issue with whatever she’s said/written about Israel, but the reality is the Israel/Palestine thing has been a terrible battle for hundreds of years with both sides having blood on their hands and shifting culpability forever…and most people take soundbites out of context.

Honestly, I think most people are gravitating to the middle these days. And I wish MSM would simply stick to the facts without any political spin. [/quote]

Other than being a lesbian, there is not much liberal about her. Ok. But what people are getting at is that she has burned many bridges along the way and there is a reason credible journalists don’t like her. She claims to be anti ‘cancel culture’ but then tried to have pro Palestine professors fired. She claimed to be ‘harassed’ and ‘forced out’ at the Times, but her colleagues showed she lied. [/quote]
