NEW YORK (The Blaze/AP) — The executive editor of The New York Times is stepping down after eight years on the job.

The Times announced Thursday that Bill Keller is leaving the post to return to writing. He will be replaced by Jill Abramson, formerly one of his top deputies.

Times Publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr. says in a statement that Keller asked for the change a few weeks ago. Keller plans to write for The New York Times Magazine and the paper’s Sunday opinion and news section.

That’s 8 years of constant lies and propaganda on behalf of his boss, the kenyan. He can now move on with pride knowing full well he did his part in destroying a great country!

I find it fascinating that the former CEO of a Big Oil company (Chevron) could raise a son to become the editor of the biggest attacker of Big Oil, conservatives, Republicans, and all things American.

My guess is, he’ll resurface in the White House as some idiotic Czar the Republicans are too scared to go after.

Time for someone else to get up here and start crushing and smashing. :)

Pinch Sulzberger is the perfect example of an incompetent ne’er do well from inherited money who rather than running his parent’s company into the ground if he did not come from wealth would be sleeping on a grate. The other perfect example is the late Ted Kennedy who would be sharing that grate.
