I’ve been skeptical about the idea that there is an actual rightward turn underway at the NYT, and assumed their recent baffling editorial decisions were a result of the usual tepid liberal both sides-ism. Today I’m canceling my subscription.
You can also use your Seattle Public Library card to get 3 free days of full access at a time by redeeming a code provided on the SPL web site, in case you need to get back in and grab another recipe.
If you have one of those extensions or apps that parse the recipe schema, it can pull out the recipe even with the blocking popup on-screen!
Here’s the first free iOS app I saw in the store, after I pasted in the URL:
I cancelled a while ago, and the frequency of "please come back" emails I'm still getting is noticeably higher from them than anything else I've ever stopped subscribing to.
I mean, holy buckets.
“If my vote isn’t the one that pushes my preferred candidate over the finish line, then I don’t want to vote and it’s just a big waste of time”
What a thin skin & overly self absorbed wanker
Yeah, this is what made me cancel a few years ago and I have seen the NYT for exactly what they are ever since. But I'm still glad for each person who catches on, however belatedly.
Because for a lot of people who consider themselves "allies", it's easier to believe their priors about how "liberal" orgs couldn't possibly be bigoted garbage, especially when the orgs frame their hate as just asking questions.
The "allies" are also deeply infected with bothsidesism.
I actually canceled a while ago but would dip in if someone had a gift link or something to something I wanted to read. Now I’m classifying them with garbage tabloids I can safely ignore
They’re a profit making entity. It was always rightwing to some extent. Of course they’ll pull any lever they can to keep their taxes down and increase their profit.
I canceled when they were perilously close to revealing the Ukraine whistleblower as articles of impeachment were being drafted.
If you ever need access, maybe your local library has 72 hour digital passes? I bookmarked the URL for my local when someone shares an NYT article.
I can't decide if it's a shame what has happened to journalism or if it's never really been what we thought it was and the current climate has just blown back the curtain
lol. Scrolling through 10 BIDEN IS OLD!! “News” pieces and “10 reasons Biden should drop out” opinion pieces only to find that headline, read the piece and find it to be the most solipsistic bullshit in history with no actual argument was what tipped me over the edge too. Cancelled (except games)
welcome to the pack.
i held off because it was costing me $0 per month but even at that, i realized that engagement is only counted as support so i gtfo
