This is what passes for journalism in the modern era.

It's a "given" that Trump must be stopped and the only question is how.

When we have the trials and hangings, where in line should the "journalists" be? Before, or after politicians...Academia...Corporate governance...where?

These Leftists are completely insane and reasoning with them is impossible.

Critics can watch unhinged Cenk. Seriously, don’t read it. Don’t buy it. Move on to something that agrees with your delusions.

The complaint is the NYTimes is NOT far enough Left—it needs to trash Trump even more than is done daily.

What is the danger the left fears with a Trump win! Prosperity, secure borders, no wars, a stable world? They never articulate what specific thing they are afraid of.

Communists don’t take bad news well. What the commie critics are saying is shut up about it.

And to think people trusted the NYT and Walter Cronkite and the rest of the media that good bit more back when Nixon was forced out.

It’s impossible to make a false equivalance betwee that which is real - Biden’s Crime Family — and that which is contrived.

Now the media feels an obligation to advocate for a political position. The loss of trust and credibility has become a nonissue.

In the early days of the Republic, newspapers were blatantly political and everyone knew it. There was no pretense of objectivity; our side is righteous and the other side is vile.

If the NYT were to go full anti-Trump, what difference would it make? Judging from what I read about NY politics and jurisprudence, Trump is unlikely to win NY or any state where the NYT is widely read or votes from devoted NYT readers.

At least phony objectivity would be shed.

LOL! There will be none of that.

You'll give some FReepers ideas that the President can suspend the civilian court system nationwide (hint - no) or delay Federal elections (hint - no).

Repeatedly read and hear that Trump is a threat to democracy, but that threat is never quantified.

Meanwhile Biden and his minions are behaving in such a way that represents a clear and present danger to the future of this nations’s future.

Agree on all your points, but look at where this is coming from....the reverb chamber of TDS itself - CNN via Yahoo. You can't get much more deranged than that.

Me thinks the libs are on the brink of executing a scorched-earth policy as the reality gets more clear to them each day. 2025 is gonna be ugly no matter what happens. The left will burn it all down out of pure spite.

placing false equivalence on issues surrounding the current president to those of the former president, who is facing 91 criminal counts and fantasized about being a dictator on “day one.

The dictator lie is in response to a sarcastic joke made by Trump on how the left says he's going to be dictator. The joke....okay, but maybe just the first day...

Of course criticism of the NYT by CNN would be coming from the left of it.

When will they run a “news” story like “Critics say the treatment of the J6 prisoners has been too lenient, and that censorship methods don’t go nearly far enough.”

CNN sucks. This stupid piece is just more proof of what everyone knows - - CNN shills for the democrat party.

The lack of spittle flying from lips of NY Times journalists when talking about Trump is an affront to leftists.

Coincidentally, bird cage sales are down too.
