If the NYT had any balls at all just fire all those who signed onto this letter. That would put a quick end to it.

That's the only thing that's going to stop all this cancel culture. Just destroy them openly and notoriously. From NFL players, to dudes on girls' swim teams to angry black professors screaming for the murder of all whites. Just cut them off.

So-called "Advocacy Journalism" is a virus carried by nearly all so-called journalists these days. It wasn't always so. Ron Fournier really opened the floodgates when he took over the AP. Before the 2000s, you could spot the bias but it took a little work because it was camouflaged in the language. You could tell whose side the journalists were on but they felt obliged to be at least somewhat accurate in reporting the other side. Now they are full-fledged partisan hacks channeling their inner Joy, Mika, or Rachel. The worst part is that it infects local papers, radio, and even tv. You visit Conservativesville, USA and open the paper or turn on the local news and you'll read or hear the same Commie crap you'd read or hear in NYC, DC, or San Francisco because it is largely being pulled from the AP or the network TV and radio feeds. That is one reason why half the country still believes Russia was in the tank for Trump for example. They have simply never been exposed to the truth on so many things. Even people who should know more don't. Recall how Tim Ryan had to be told by a FoxNews town hall audience that six cops weren't murdered in the Capitol on January 6. Or to continue the hit parade, "Hands up, Don't Shoot." As Ann mentioned again recently, "George Floyd: Model Citizen." I could go on and on. These "journalists" today all got their degrees from the Joseph Goebbels School of Journalism, and they majored in far-left activism.
