Let me translate - obviously some of you only scored a 0+/0+ when you took the DLPT for 'NewSpeak'


The publisher of The New York Times penned a letter to readers Friday promising that the paper would “reflect” on its coverage of this year’s election while rededicating itself to reporting on “America and the world” honestly.


Really means...
"Go fuck yourself red states, NY is a Blue State. Our blue readers are loyal enough to keep us in business."



Consider this: Sulzberger insisted that the paper covered both candidates fairly.

The fact is, they are all shills for whoever on the left is willing to sign a payroll check. The NYT was caught with their pants down because they think racist, homophobic, deplorable rednecks are all too stupid and uneducated to read such a lofty news periodical as theirs.
As an attempt to save face, they reminded the readers that the NYT "covered the election with agility and creativity."
....its a true statement - not an apology or a retraction of their bullshit reporting. They simply made a true statement crafted as your typical liberal non-apology. They were VERY creative in covering the election.
Then they added the similarly crafted non-apologetic, promise that since the opposition seems to have assumed the reigns of power, "we intend to 'hold power to account, impartially and unflinchingly"

Now.... here is where you numbskulls need to pay attention (this is why I scored a 1+/2 in NewSpeak)

"We believe we reported on both candidates fairly during the presidential campaign"
"You can rely on the NYT to bring that same level of fairness, the same level of scrutiny to our coverage of the new president and his team"



The NYT feels that they covered the elections fairly...
...as a result, you can expect more of the same if Trump moves into the White House in January. The same level of scrutiny that they give ALL political opponents. Meanwhile, the left will continue to get a free pass.



Fuck you very much NYT - I'd rather spend the next four year listening to Jon Stewart, at least I can pretend that he really is just a comedian.
