The Post can perform a "market correction," whatever garbage you think that entails, without it being done by a sleazy British tabloid journalist who's more interested in suppressing stories about him that make him look bad (phone hacking). Props to them.

NYT is also SJW newspaper at this point so it won’t be better.


Huh? The NYT is the newspaper of record in the United States. There's no better publication.

Pro-tip: Failing to parrot your biases doesn't make the paper "SJW."

Besides, facts have a well-known liberal bias.


This is exactly why the NYT sucks now because of arrogant people like you. Democrats are not much better at following evidence and facts and in comparison to Republicans. Most people only accept the “facts” when it is consistent with their underlying beliefs and very few people objectively evaluate things anymore. Almost everyone lives in an internet rabbit hole at this point and social media algorithms are reinforcing this ridiculous partisanship where everyone is increasingly disconnected from reality.


Evidence? Please compare the two.



Also, remember the HUGE S storm WaPo tried to drum up over the Catholic school boy incident in DC? WaPo ran the story before it had the facts because it for the leftist narrative that a white straight male did something bad against an oppressed minotory. Oopsie, we only found out later that the school boy didn't do anything wrong and that other groups were antagonizing him first after the full video of the incident got released. It was a huge egg on the face of the paper. The Dem reader base disregarded all facts and ate that story up like red meat because it was an opium hit for the oppression addiction.


So Ds thought the little prick instigated the stand off but that turned out to be not true. Ok.

Now please share all of the way that Rs failed to follow “evidence and facts”.

So we can get our unbiased, nonpartisan comparison.


"Little prick" shows how biased you are and why you ate up the story like red meat. Go apologize to someone stealing stuff from CVS because they are "too corporate" and care about "profits."

No it's not. 90% of it is propaganda from the RW garbage.


The WSJ is the only paper that can now say it broke a story that led to a felony conviction for Trump. That is opposite of right wing propaganda.


There are so many idiots that think WSJ is some sort of far right publication.. lol, it is a business news source. Of course they'll be slightly more conservative, but they're not far right...you don't have to read their OPINION peices of you don't want to.

The WSJ does some of the most fantastic investigative journalism out there. I was absolutely enthralled with their investigations into the Malaysian 1 MDB scandal. In fact, the WSJ journalist doing that story really struck a nerve because he was getting death threats while abroad. It's a fantastic news source despite what all these echo chamber clowns in the DMV say.


+1


+2 IMHO it is right up there with the Financial Times.

Today, the WSJ ran a story suggesting that someone at the vice presidential debate ask Kamala Harris who she would name as her vice president when Biden inevitably toddles off into the sunset about year into his second term. Sometimes the women and diversity hires are not all that they are cracked up to be.

Yeah, firing half the WAMU newsroom in a "pivot to audio" is "cleaning up the mess." Thanks for the laugh.

Thanks for proving my point both in the viciousness and ridiculousness. The fact that you criticize a radio station deciding “pivot to audio” is all that needs to be said.

It seems like the only reason why you want the Post to hire diversity in management is because it looks like you’re more comfortable attacking them.


The Post's newsroom seems perfectly comfortable attacking its current management: https://www.washingtonpost.com/style/media/2024/06/06/post-publisher-draws-more-scrutiny-after-newsroom-shakeup/

How pompous and out of touch can staff be to think their internal company politics should be front page news.


The New York Times sent push alerts on stories about the Post's internal company politics on two consecutive days this week (so far), I don't think it's crazy for the Post to also write about it. Especially since the stories dealt with the publisher trying to get the paper not to write about him.

You’re just proving that journalism is a broken profession.


If the Post’s internal mess isn’t of any public interest, why is there a long discussion of it still going on here? Seems like people are curious about it.

You’re kidding right? It’s a bunch of journalists complaining and literally everyone else telling you to zip it.

Trump gets such a pass from the media because they think all of his missteps are “baked in” to his appeal/persona. There is just no way the NYT is harder on Trump than Biden. There has been virtually no coverage of the record stock market, or the decline in border crossings etc etc

Maybe the paper could do an article about how to gauge cognitive function in older adults or that presidential candidates over age 70 need to complete neuropsychological testing. Something to address this important issue before the election. But WaPo won't because it might give Trump an edge, facts be damned!


Third party media observers all characterize that article as a hit job quoting Republican elected officials on why they think Biden has lost a step and not a balanced thoughtful piece.

Tbh I think we should have age limits for all public officials and I hate that our choices for this election are two way too old candidates, but there’s no doubt in my mind that Biden is sharper than Trump and there’a no doubt in my mind that I’d rather have Biden’s cabinet run the government than Stephen Miller, Javanka, Russell Vought, and the rest of the crazies.
