The New York Times is clamming up about the specific date Bill and Hillary Clinton contributed $100,000 to the paper’s charity group in 2008, but denies the donation played a role in its coverage and endorsement of Clinton in the Democratic primaries that year.
The Washington Free Beacon reported on Sunday that the Clinton Family Foundation, a little-known philanthropic organization controlled by the Clintons, donated $100,000 to the New York Times Neediest Cases Fund in 2008. The charity is administered by the paper and run by top brass at the Times Company.
On Jan. 25, 2008, the Times endorsed Hillary Clinton over challengers Barack Obama and John Edwards. At the time there were reports that the editorial board had been leaning toward endorsing Obama but switched after then-publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr. intervened in favor of Clinton.

Clearly, they’ve got all their investigative reporters poring through speeding tickets.
So the influence-peddling Clintons wanted to buy some influence for a change?Then they expect us to believe it never happened?Really?
Anyone who pays to read the NYT will believe it. They have already mastered the art of doublethink.
In the legal world, I believe, it’s known as Conspiracy to Commit Fraud.
Could it be they are keeping their mouths shut because they so not want to further incriminate themselves. Orange is the new black in NYC I’m told
LMAO. I need one of those bumper stickers.

And of course the 0bama IRS won’t bother to request (not demand like for us po’ folks) their donation logs.
I believe it was already announced exactly when they donated to the NYT charity.
I guess I was wrong. Everything states it was sometime in 2008, just prior to the NYT switching from backing Obama to backing Hillary.
A complete coincidence.
Suuuuuuuuuuuulzberger, you got some splainin' to do!
Yeah but Rubio got FOUR speeding tickets!
Really FOUR speeding tickets, that he Paid.
On time, too!
