FROM THE GREAT JACK MARSHALL AND ETHICS ALARMS--KIND OF AMUSING IF YOU STEP BACK FROM IT--THE NY TIMES...AGAIN....PLATNER... TRUMP... ETC. ETC, ETC

Many thanks to AJZ--for the reminder:

Oh bloody hell,” as self-exiled EA columnist Curmie would say. The New York Times actually published this round-table circle-jerk by three of its writers on the opinion page: “‘There’s No Graham Platner Without Donald Trump’: 3 Writers on the Fiasco in Maine.” [Gift Link, with a head explosion risk warning] Sorry for the vulgarity, but seriously folks, how long can the New York Times go on like this? Yesterday the highest-ranking news editor at the King of the Axis Media, executive editor Joe Kahn, finally admitted that the outrageous May 11 opinion column by Nicholas Kristof accusing Israel of training dogs to rape Palestinian prisoners didn’t meet Times news standards. Got that? So Times columnists can publicize fake news and unverified positions, and the paper lets them get away with that.

Now we have this garbage, with three progressives blaming the Platner debacle…on Donald Trump! MORE AT Ethics Train Wreck Update, In Which the Complicit and Corrupt NYT Journalists and Pundits Can’t Bring Themselves To Be Honest About Graham Platner | Ethics Alarms
