Unclear to me why Reuters articles seem officially blessed on HN in the face of superior reporting from NYT or WaPo, etc.
I guess the original reason for preferring Reuters or AP was, avoiding a paywall, but now of course, Reuters has a paywall.
So I would opine that the traditional flagging/downvoting of NYT links for this kind of story, in favor of Reuters, should cease.
