Michael Tae Sweeney: Makes you think! Way fewer stories about email servers this year despite Trump having far worse lapses of email open records protocol and stealing classified docs! Wonder why it stopped mattering all of a sudden! bsky.app/profile/dodg...

Full court press - the Times can make a story last when they want it too, similar to how every conservative - even the "moderates" start rowing in the same direction when theres a supreme court confirmation fight.

It's been days and eight of nine links at the top of the NYT right now are about the same thing

Yup bsky.app/profile/kcm7...

Claudine Gay redux.

Email redux

Which has generated more New York Times app push notifications and front page headlines? Hillary Clinton NOT getting indicted for mishandling classified documents or Donald Trump actually getting indicted for mishandling classified documents? Why would that be the case?

Voters were constantly complaining that there were not enough stories about proper citation formatting in papers authored by Ivy League university administrators and the Times listened bsky.app/profile/dodg...

The worst part is their excuse is “voters don’t care” (because they’re not making it the top story)

At the same time the Saudis gave Trump's son in law $2,000,000,000 and started making huge production cuts that spiked the price of oil under Biden! but hey that's not as interesting as Clinton's email server apparently bsky.app/profile/grud...

Trump stealing top secrets and literally showing them to randos AND MEETING WITH THE SAUDIS with them in his possession haven’t generated 1% the ink of the remote possibility of any of that happening

NYT lacks juice too. This would have been total doom for a Democrat twenty years ago

And unthinkable that the Philadelphia Inquirer would put them on blast within 24 hours. Why anyone thinks their opinions should matter defies logic. (Except for Jamelle Bouie who is great)

Just after he & his son-in-law gave the Saudi government top-secret defense tech and outsourced U.S. defense production jobs to there. www.nytimes.com/2019/06/07/u...

this is 100% true but (and this isn't exculpatory at all) the media world in '24 is wildly different than in '16 and so is the NYT ability to drive the national news conversation, imo

Both are still less than the relentless updates on every accusation against Claudine Gay.

The worst part is their excuse is “voters don’t care” (because they’re not making it the top story)

How are they supposed to care when they don't know about it?

Could do servers! to Eric Adams too, amazingly

But his emails pls! www.foxnews.com/us/fbi-probe...

FBI probes NYC Mayor Eric Adams' use of private email addresses, trips to China: reportwww.foxnews.com FBI probe comes months after agency seized mayor's electronic devices

why would the "New York Times" write about *checks notes* New York?

I'm not sure anything will ever annoy me more than their "we're a NATIONAL newspaper, we couldn't at all be bothered to look into something as provincial as the most obvious criminal fraudster who just won NY-03 before the election" routine

When Harry Met Sally but every time we re-encounter the NYT it is worse
