August 30th, 2017 10:39 AM
The front page of Wednesday’s New York Times was properly dominated by the damage Hurricane Harvey is wreaking in Texas.

New York Times reporter Simon Romero covered the violent aftermath of Tuesday night's Trump rally, as left-wing protesters, many violent, faced off with Trump fans: “Trump Rally in Phoenix Touches Nerves in City As Opposing Sides Meet.” Besides seeming to blame Trump’s “divisive” speech for hot tempers (including assaults on police officers), Romero suggested the police were at fault.

AP, NYT Downplay U.S. Role in Chile Mine Rescue; Times Writers Cast Re

October 13th, 2010 9:16 AM
Michelle Malkin picked up on this vibe yesterday, and it has become more obvious in the intervening day: The establishment press, or at least parts of it, are downplaying the American exceptionalism -- and the exceptional Americans -- involved in the Chilean mine rescue.

October 12th, 2009 9:04 AM
As the old saying goes, a photo can say a thousand things. But what it can't say is how it can be used to say one thing, but really be another thing. And that's just how The New York Times used it.
