May 7th, 2018 12:10 PM
You’re a New York Times sports editor at the end of an eventful weekend. The NBA and NHL playoffs are heating up (admittedly without any New York teams). The Yankees are firing on all cylinders, as are their arch-rivals in Boston. The Mets are, well, the Mets. There was PGA golf at the Wells Fargo tournament.

The front of Sunday’s New York Times featured political reporter Jonathan Martin’s tribute to the ailing Sen.

May 5th, 2018 2:37 PM

May 3rd, 2018 8:47 PM
Rolling Stone’s Tessa Stuart interviewed New York Times campaign reporter Amy Chozick about her new book on covering the Hillary Clinton campaign, and revealed Chozick to be amazingly forgiving of Clinton and quite uncaring about female victims of male predation – at least those whose stories could conceivably hurt Hillary’s chances.

NYT’s Goldberg: ‘Overwhelming Evidence of...Collusion With Russia'

May 1st, 2018 6:29 PM
Most liberal opponents of President Trump have been shamed out of throwing around the word “collusion” willy-nilly, as Robert Mueller’s investigation plods along without throwing up much in the way of evidence thus far. But not columnist Michelle Goldberg of The New York Times, still flying the flag of “collusion,” while embracing domestic surveillance organizations: “Truth vs. Power In the…
