It is no wonder that The NY Times circulation and profitability are down dramatically. Their editorial and supposed news columns are so radical "Anti-American" that more and more people discontinue reading it in a search for the truth.. I had been a faithful reader, ten years ago I stopped reading it. They no longer print all the news that is fit to print. They print what fits their radical agenda.
Their prior sterling reputation was not earned. The following are just two of many examples of their fallacious reporting. Were they not the ones who sold us on the concept that Castro was an agarian reforner? This lead to his ticker tape parade down Broadway in NYC.
In the 1930's they sent a supposed investigative reporter to the Soviet Union to deteermine if "UNCLE JOE Stalin" was wilfully starving large numbers of Russian. He reported after months in the Soviet Union that Stalin was not starving Russians. As always coverups can only suppress the truth for so long. We eventually found out he was wilfully starved his countrymen.
Effective investgative reporting would have unearth both of these coverups. Honest investigative reporting without an agenda should be their stock in trade. It is not and has not been for a long time.
