Since I’m a former newspaperman, let me translate:

>>>”The New York Times is committed...<<<

They are committed partisans engaging in what is now called “advocacy journalism.”

>>>... to covering the candidates ... <<<

In the case of candidates we support, covering up for them.

>>> ...fully, fairly and aggressively... <<<

We are full of it, quite often. We are fairly biased most of the time. We are aggressive in our support for the left and Democrats, and aggressive in our distaste and disgust of Americans, the Republicans, conservatives, and Christians.

>>>... It’s our job to ask hard questions ... <<<

But there are many times that it’s Friday at the office, or it just feels like Friday, and we take time to slack off.

>>>... fact-check their statements and their advertising ... <<<

While ignoring what we don’t like.

>>>... examine their programs, positions, biographies and advisors ...<<<

In the case of conservatives and Republicans, in the same manner as a proctologist performing a colonoscopy.

>>> ... Candidates and their campaign operatives are not always comfortable with that level of scrutiny ... <<<

In other words, please go f*** yourself.

>>>... but it’s what our readers expect and deserve...<<<

Our readers comprise the petit bourgoise, the folks Lenin called “useful idiots.” They expect us to smear anyone who doesn’t accept their narrow view of the world. These same readers deserve what they get.

There, translation complete.

Great translation Redpoll....

As for us petit people-—we’re just waiting for Rupert Murdoch to buyout the steaming ashes of the NY Slimes and turn it into a real newspaper....Maybe then we will get “ALL the news that is fit to print” in a Fair and Balanced way...

Note to leftists...if you barfed at this.......good !
