For what it’s worth, I haven’t read a news story from the New York Times in — five years, maybe? I came to the conclusion long ago that the Times doesn’t care whether the news stories they run are true. They don’t even care whether the stories are by any general measure impoortant. They have an institutional narrative that they want to sell to the world, and they run stories that are useful to that narrative. All the news that fits.
