That doesn't seem hypocritical to me. I don't think Arthur C. Brooks has any control over who buys equity in the NY Times.

Yes if you can't keep the lights on without accepting money from shady sources then maybe they should get off their moral high horse? >I don't think Arthur C. Brooks has any control over who buys equity in the NY Times. Surely no one forced them to accept "loans" stolen from Mexicans [1] 1. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-new-york-times-warrants-carlos-slim-idUSKBN0KN2M820150114 http://www.reuters.com/article/us-new-york-times-warrants-ca...
- simplify 10y agoThe term "moral high horse" refers to someone who is elevating themselves above you in effort to show/feel superiority. I did not get that tone from the article at all. If anything, it seems you are trying to "pull him down" in effort to invalidate his noble suggestions.
- dominotw 10y agonoone is trying to pull anyone down. Don't you see the lack of self awareness of waxing eloquent about " people in need " while accepting money stolen from them at the same time.
