I'll take the bait. It's 2020, is the NYT still considered highly reputable? Or is it just a "loveable brand name" at this point?

In summary, it is still well regarded for accuracy and thoroughness by its peers. Popular opinion is still high relative to its peers but has lowered. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_New_York_Times#Reputation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_New_York_Times#Reputation The WP article also links to the paper of record article. Papers of record can be important even if they are disliked because of the sources they have access to, and the extent to which they influence stories by reporting on them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newspaper_of_record https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newspaper_of_record
