Has anyone reminded the NYT that Donnie Drumpf is being whomped by a crooked, sickly, bigoted, girl?

Thanks, great article!
I hope this gets wide circulation.
The NYTimes continues its 25th year of being the leader in purveying Clinton paranoia and disinformation.

Ms Rees: Have you conveyed this very legitimate criticism to the editorial board of the Times?

Nope. Dowd yes, but I don’t see it in the daily reporting.

Ridiculous.

I cannot even articulate how pissed off this makes me. While these ā€˜journalists’ are so obsessed with the ā€˜Clinton Machine’ and all the BS going back decades they will chase after any lie that drops from Trump’s mouth and neglect any legitimate news and/or wrong doing from anywhere else. MoDo has always had a problem and quite frankly, I am amazed she is still a columnist…do they get tenure or something? They may be the ā€˜paper of record’ and ā€˜the grey lady’ but I have been reading other publications for months now. They are untrustworthy.

The NYT seems to think that journalistic excellence is measured by the poundage of the Sunday edition,
not the journalistic content.

It’s a shame how far it has fallen into darkness, such that the aptly named ā€œgreyā€ lady is just a mere shadow of its former greatness. It’s a cloudy day indeed.

Yeah, I saw most of those tweets – I didn’t think highly of their political coverage in the first place, but now have pretty much given up on it. Their CDS is beyond treatment. Times’ Clinton reporting is consistently NYPosty under some journalistic disguise.

They are obsessed with casting anything about Hillary, no matter what it is, in a negative light, and nothing other than their deep vitriol against her seems able to explain this pattern.

IMO, DOWD’s obsession with HILLLARY is unhealthy…she has been on this track for years…in fact, she is getting rather predictable and boring…I used to read the TIMES on line… but the same old crap got tiresome… maybe its because I don’t live in NY…but DOWD’S constant rants against HILLARY began to sound rather school-girlish…8th GRADE stuff.

Maureen Dowd will never forgive Bill Clinton for NOT taking a pass at her, and blames Hillary for her being passed over for the pudgy chick in the steno-pool.
Her MASSIVE EGO was bruised and she just can’t let it go.

NYT has been much more critical of Trump: hands down.

Reminds me of an old colleague who always talked about ā€œtrapsā€ and ā€œflagsā€. He’d dictate emails to his assistant who would type them out in Outlook. He’d then have him print the email and fax it recipient rather than actually do the email part.

To be fair (and balanced, so to speak), the NYT’s writers of late were mentored by Snoopy…

That they allow the likes of Maureen Dowd to opine…tells all.
That woman has had a picture of Hillary in her toilet bowl and has been practicing shitting on her for 25 years

This twitter-storm speaks for me.

ETA: It’s a long twitter-storm thread (a series of 28? tweets), but worth reading all.

A lot of that Sunday ā€œpoundageā€ is junk for the very, very wealthy – fashion, real-estate, etc.

Trump sucks the air out of the room and the NYT breaks wind.

The New York Times is not the enemy.

Last time I remember them going at it like this was when they spent the 2000 election cycle giving Al Gore the business, bending over backward to prove to God-knows-who that they weren’t the ā€˜liberal media’.
