There's also an issue of trust. I had an NYT subscription. NYT has always (more than) leaned left, but never in such a biased manner as in recent past. Their coverage (or lack of it) of Bernie's campaign for example.
So with a subscription, I'm not really subscribing to a rigorous and diplomatic institution that is helping me develop into a more knowledgeable person, or indeed, filling any useful role in my life. Instead, I'd be subscribing to further some numpty's propaganda pieces. And that would make me feel gross.
- dhimes 10y agoWell substitute a more trusted source for you than NYT and we still have a problem to solve. I don't read NYT much, but Bernie was left of Hillary, FWIW- so I would have expected them to cover him more than her if they leaned heavily left. But whatevs; neither here nor there.
