Bari Weiss: New York Times editor wanted Schumer to OK op-ed by GOP Sen. Tim Scott
New York Post ^ | August 11, 2022 | Ariel Zilber

A former New York Times opinion page editor alleges that her bosses refused to run an op-ed submitted by Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) without first getting approval from Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY).

Bari Weiss, who resigned from the Gray Lady two years ago citing “bullying” as well as an “illiberal environment” for those with right-leaning views, made the allegation during an interview with Scott on her popular podcast “Honestly with Bari Weiss.”

Weiss’ comments were reported by the news site Mediaite. The Post has reached out to the Times seeking comment.

During the interview, Weiss recalled a discussion among senior Times editors surrounding an op-ed submitted by Scott in the aftermath of the May 2020 police-involved slaying of George Floyd, the 46-year-old black man, in Minneapolis.

Who the heck is Shmucky Schumer that the New York Times has to ask his permission to publish him an op Ed from a senator?

No sympathy for Tim Scott here as Steve Deace wrote in recent hours:

“Tim Scott would make a better snitch than senator”

Tim Scott is an Assistant Democrat.
This is to distract from his endorsement of Murkowsky.

I guess that was before Schumer knew what a RINO Scott is.

This is what it's all about!

H.Res.743 - Impeaching Merrick Brian Garland, Attorney General of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors.
Sponsor: Rep. Perry, Scott [R-PA-10] (Introduced 10/22/2021)

Everything else is fluff.
