Trump Implores New NYT Publisher to Leave Fake News Behind
Posted On 02 Jan 2018
On January 1st, New York Times publisher Arthur O. Sulzberger Jr. handed over the reigns of the newspaper to his son, leaving at least one man hopeful that 2018 could be the beginning of a new, more objective era for the “Gray Lady.”
“The Failing New York Times has a new publisher, A.G. Sulzberger,” Trump tweeted. “Congratulations! Here is a last chance for the Times to fulfill the vision of its founder, Adolph Ochs, ‘to give the news impartially, without fear or FAVOR, regardless of party, sect, or interests involved.’”
Trump went on to give the new publisher a few recommendations. “Get impartial journalists of a much higher standard, lose all of your phony and non-existent ‘sources,’ and treat the President of the United States FAIRLY, so that the next time I (and the people) win, you won’t have to write an apology to your readers for a job poorly done! GL.”
Trump is referring to the infamous message written by the elder Sulzberger and executive editor Dean Banquet a few days after the 2016 election. Of course, upon closer examination (and the benefit of watching the Times decline even further in the year since), you can see that the letter’s “apologetic” nature was overblown at the time. Indeed, it begins with what can only be described as a pat on the back for an election well reported: “When the biggest political story of the year reached a dramatic and unexpected climax late Tuesday night, our newsroom turned on a dime and did what it has done for nearly two years — cover the 2016 election with agility and creativity.”
While the letter does go on to ponder the idea that the Times might have overlooked some factors leading to Trump’s unexpected victory, they don’t even come close to anything resembling an apology:
As we reflect on the momentous result, and the months of reporting and polling that preceded it, we aim to rededicate ourselves to the fundamental mission of Times journalism. That is to report America and the world honestly, without fear or favor, striving always to understand and reflect all political perspectives and life experiences in the stories that we bring to you. It is also to hold power to account, impartially and unflinchingly. You can rely on The New York Times to bring the same fairness, the same level of scrutiny, the same independence to our coverage of the new president and his team.
Is that what readers got in 2017? Impartiality? Unflinching coverage of the new president? Journalism that unfolded without fear or favor? We submit that they did not rise to the standards they set for themselves and are exceedingly unlikely to restore those standards in 2018, new publisher or not. And frankly, it hardly matters. The American people have seen the Times and its likeminded rags for what they are – thinly-disguised shills for the left. They may as well “rededicate” themselves to that mission and drive it all the way to the bank…and then, when people grow tired of reading the lies…into a premature grave.
anyone ever notice every add for younger looking skin has the same pictures with the same quotes. What did they do mix them all together?
The New York Slimes is in bed with the Democraps.
NYT makes good stuffing for packing boxes, that is about it!!!!
Here’s a quote some of you may find interesting:
We are garteful to the Washington Post, the New york Times,
Time Magizine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of decression for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to devlope our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years, but the work is now much more sophisticated and prepaired to march towards a one one world Government. The supernational sovereignty of intellectual elite and world Bankers is surely perferable to the National Auto determination praticed in past centuries…

Wow! That’s very interesting…….
Quite…..
Get rid of all the foreign largest shareholder who hand out their talking points everyday , and explain to their talking heads that today is about Trump not being fit for President. And 95% of the media in the US all say the same things I didn’t believe Sean Hannity until I did read five front pages of the biggest newspapers, all the Channels CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC , and the worst channel ever now CNN the Clinton news network. As like ESPN the eastern sports network. You know I Am so tired of people thinking anyone who doesnt think their way on everything you are one of Hillary’s deplorables. I am so tired of the Dems ripping off all the Taxpayers because the people they use always and remember you are getting played. The Muller Piece will be a hundred million before it is done they have defrauded us tried to spice up the worst dossier so they could get FISA warrants, I can’t believe they feel like they don’t have to follow anyone rules or Laws the worst part is you complete idiots America already knows so the longer you try and delete as much and fake as many bad things to say you’re running down. So if you would just figure out the longer you take the more people won’t believe anything you say what an dishonorable thing to do you have killed two of the agencies that cant have an oz if corruption and lying and playing us for only you believe we are stupid we have known since the Last Administration. All the so called ” coincidences that we are suppose to9 believe in. I think it is time to take down the Democratic party for being thieves , Drug dealers . no Honor to our military. I think I realize what Trump’s problem is is to take them all down will tell the world how much money they actually printed and how much of it is missing. And all the using of the NSA program for spying was used in Americans Which as Obama put it the First yr he ran that the Patriot Act was the biggest invasion of privacy until he uses. I hate labels I am just an American that loves my country and I think the people tasked with are safety are so dirty along with all the intelligent agencies how have fed us with Obama and Hillary’s Lies . Think of how much money Obama released to Iran and they are having huge protest so I guess the money went to the wrong people. Obama put so much Pressure on European Countries like Germany and listening to Merkel’s Phone calls and having her take so many Shiite Muslims that now women in Germany are being stalked and a lot of nasty things and I think Obama is stepping up the pressure in Germany so he can get the Skinheads to come out and take back their country, And Macron who Hillary and Obama got elected has taken a lot of the Muslims that have no intention of blending in and learning France’s values. And Obama who created Issus by withdrawing from Iraq to quickly so like he said that Afghanistan is where the war is at, How much total BS that was it was for taking over the Opioids and heroine, that Afghanistan produces 95% of the world’s heroin. Don’t kid yourself he is getting his cut by letting Hezbollah bypass the DEA , FBI, Border agents. This is why he didn’t care about Issue he wanted control of the poppies . America their cant be these many coeisedeces of money being stolen from agencies the pentagon , the Fbi, the D,Hud, IRS and every other government agencies. We are going to have to change our currency again 100, 50, 20 , 10’s, our if we have found a treasure of oil , Natural Gas, Coal and any other energy. I have heard they have found in Oil alone 17 trillion on the north slope not adding in a lot of other energy sources that instead of the gold standard we go to an energy standard. Get rid off all the fraud everywhere including, voter fraud, welfare , social security , food stamps , Illegal means Illegal aliens and since California have been given people benefits even if CA is Broke I dont think America wants to bail out these states that have not ran on fiscal conservatism something the dems have been hounding about the tax bill. Why don’t we just wait until these states that only follow the rules they like blue States instead if Bitching that your local and state taxes are so high America didn’t do it you have so fix it yourselves.
A lie will come to the attention of most thinking people regardless of how it is couched in politics. A story is either true or it isn’t! When a lie is told to people it becomes a ticking time bomb, and it will eventually be found out! That is what is happening now in the lies surrounding the Trump campaign in 2016! The perpetrators are desperately attempting to find a way out that will keep Hillary Clinton and her cronies from being prosecuted! It won’t work! The truth will be shown and in a most unusual way! The “bad guys” will be exposed and Trump will be exonerated! Watch!
NYT WILL NEVER CHANGE. IT IS A DIMOCRATIC MOUTH PIECE!
The NYT is even worse than The National Enquirer. Very sad situation. I never read the New York Crimes err New York Slimes anymore.
The NYT is a piece of garbage. They publish only propaganda, lies, fake news, innuendo, disinformation, misinformation, distortions, inaccuracies, falsehoods, etc. They are nothing but yellow journalists. I quit reading that rag a long time ago. I don’t know if they have the brains to shape up before they go belly up. When they do go belly up, GOOD RIDDANCE!
Same goes for the Washington Pravda.
NYT should be sold in supermarkets right next to the Star and the Enquirer. It falls just short of reporting on the riff between William & Kate and the ongoing Pitt/Jolie facade.
NYT with their accomplice, MSNBC, has been putting out fake news and polls ever since Obama married up with them and Hag Hillary. It is time for them to become American again and not globalist crooks like Soros and Obama!
For Trump & this site, “fake news” is whatever news isn’t favorable to Trump.
If NYT gives up Fake News, they might as well take up used car sales.
The NYT used to be a good newspaper – ALL THE NEWS FIT TO PRINT.
But for quite a time now it has only been full of onesided liberal activist shiit posing as “news”.
Shame on them!!!
One would think the conservatives would boycott all the newspapers they claim are biased against them. But they can’t because most of those publications are trying to print the facts as best they can and the right-wing always seem to end up looking bad.
Isn’t it odd, that anything unfavorable to Trump is FAKE NEWS? I suppose that bible verses, critical to Trump’s behavior, would ALSO be fake news.
One wonders when LeeRoy and Daisy Mae are going to run out of those cutesy names for Obama, the Clintons, and the Democrats?
Here’s the difference between the Clintons and Trump, people. The Clintons engaged in a little more-or-less honest corruption. Trump sold out to the Russians. Have we all forgotten that Trump brought those two old-time Communists into the Oval Office?
More or less “honest corruption”? The Clintons have been engaged in corruption their entire political careers. You liking them or trusting them doesn’t change that. Trump did absolutely nothing illegal. Why do you think Mueller hasn’t been able to find anything on him? It’s like playing hide and seek but nobody’s hiding. These people are looking for something that doesn’t exist, no matter how much you and others want it to. Concentrate on the fabulous things that are happening in this country because of President Trump and stop your little girl whining about nonsense.
I remember getting the NYT for free on some of their subscription drives, and they have interesting sections on certain subjects, but when it comes to politics they go far left and that brings the paper down, to hell with’em!
So you really think he’ll follow the wishes of Trump over those of his father?
That’ll be the day.
A couple of years ago I had a wonderful parakeet. He was a healthy little bird when I brought him home. But day after day I noticed he was seeming a little off. I couldn’t figure out what the problem was and then one day he passed. I wracked my brain to figure out what went wrong and then I figured it out. As I cleaned out his cage I realized my wife was lining the bottom with pages from the NYT. I knew right then and there what caused my little pet to pass. Let this be a warning to anyone looking to use this paper for the same purposes.
