Peter Baker says that the shoddy coverage NYT has given Joe Biden is the very best they're capable of.
Peter Baker:
I’ve never heard AG say anything like that nor anyone else at NYT. It's just not the way it works. AG wants us to cover this president -- & every president -- as fully, fairly and aggressively as we can because that's our role. That's true regardless of whether we get an interview. AG takes our responsibility very seriously and is a complete straight shooter.

I guess the sale and destruction of our democracy and subversion of the rule of law by foreign enemies doesn't matter when Biden hasn't given you a special interview. How pathetic and disgusting. I dumped this rag in 2016. Too many Trump voters in diners are the real Amerikka features. Vomit.
NFL has the NYT run a retraction yet for judy miller's anonymously sourced lies to get us into iraq? No? That tells you all you need to know about the then and current NYT management.
A.G. Sultzberger is the hereditary CEO of the NYT company, replacing his father in that position in 2018. He has been attempting to broaden the appeal of the paper to those with a more conservative bent.
"According to anonymous sources within the newspaper's staff, upon taking his position in 2018 Sulzburger "told employees explicitly that his biggest concern was that the paper’s audience saw it as a 'liberal rag...' [his] vision for the paper is to change that perception and court conservative readers."
Anthony Melchiorre, who owned Chatham Asset Management, AMI, & National Enquirer, encouraged support for Trump & disinformation on Hillary Clinton, for monetary gain.
He's been indicted for insider trading.
Begs the question, are the owners of the NYT also angling their coverage for the same reasons?

@GottaLaff
I knew the #NYTimes sucked but I didn't know how hard.
This is the reason they want to suck up to Trump because Joe said fuck off no interview?
Candy assed bitches is what they are.
This isn't journalism, it's kindergarten games.
@GottaLaff NFL wow...so a major media outlet with more credibility than National Enquirer is also trying to personally influence an election....corporate media is going to be a big part of the death of this democracy....back to my much touted belief that Citizens United was the worst blow to democracy in the history of SCOTUS ...ahem...John Roberts
So, let's get this right, the most powerful newspaper in the country is trying to extort access to Biden. They are working to elect a criminal fraudster rapist because the current upstanding president won't pander to them. Seriously? That's f-ed up.
@mastodonmigration@GottaLaff you really don't know half of it. Majority of power hungry sociopath problems come from personal vendettas. This is how they see world.
