The insipid orange turd was just as unfit to hold any office in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and now in 2024. Nothing has changed, at least for the positive, that makes him more fit. My question for the NYT is, what took you so long?

The New York Times has never endorsed trump for President. They weasel around during the campaign, but when it comes to an official endorsement, they have never endorsed trump.

The New York Times Editorial Board is a stand-alone entity that has no influence on the news, analysis or opinion departments of the paper. Most egregiously, it has zero influence on the department that writes the headlines.

I'm far from convinced the NYT Editorial Board is as aloof and objective as you say. Similarly, the publisher has opinions which have very definitely found their way into the NYTs pages. Overall, despite their endorsement of Harris, the NYT's lukewarm support for her compared to their continuous amplification of every word Trimp or a loyal 'R' legislator has to say is impossible not to notice. "Their actions speak louder than their words."

I know! That's why I hate the NYTimes. But can't bring myself to discontinue. It's an addiction. Like a blankie.

While I agree that the NYT bends over backward to sanewash Trump, I don't think I said the Editorial Board is aloof or objective. As for Schulzberger, he is the publisher. He occasionally prints an opinion and it's clearly labeled as his opinion. Publishers have used that prerogative for centuries.

OMG! They have to have some limits. Has any newspaper of note endorsed that man??
