The New York Times – a Parody of Itself

March 18, 2020 By Debbie Young

Want to see how astray The New York Times has staggered? Francis Menton, aka the Manhattan Contrarian, was certain his recent edition of the NYT’ had been swiped and replaced with a parody of the newspaper. On further examination, he realized that some miscreant had not swiped the real McCoy for a stand-in. Those same articles, he reports, could be found in plain sight in the digital edition.

Mr. Menton suggests going to the “Opinion” page, assuming you’re willing to discount the liberal spin, for a taste of what he is talking about:

  1. The lead editorial has the headline “Quarantine as Class Warfare.” But then, isn’t everything today class warfare conducted by evil oppressors?

I’ll let you figure out how that could possibly be.

  1. Then there’s the lead op-ed, “Our ‘Pursuit of Happiness’ Is Killing the Planet.” It’s exactly what you have long known was coming, the demand for impoverishment of the people, supposedly to “save the planet”: “We need to strike a new balance between our private pleasures and our collective survival.”

Does this mean that progressive billionaires and presidential candidates are supposed to give up private air travel?

  1. And, now that Joe Biden has emerged as the leading contender for the Democratic nomination, has he somehow forgotten to sign on to any one of the dozens of government programs that a good progressive must now offer to the people? Find the answer by reading “Where’s Joe Biden’s Universal Child Care Plan?” S

Something tells me that Sleepy Joe will come out with that plan within a few days or weeks.

Once not so long ago, you could go to the Times, assuming you were willing to discount the liberal spin, and find out what important things were going on in the world. Now?

Those days are long gone.
