A large enough number of people believe(d) it that the editorial board of one of the biggest newspapers of record deemed it worthy of publication. This isn’t some random blog link, it’s the New York Times.
- hotpotamus 4y agoInterestingly, I suspect that the people who take the most issue with "defund the police" would also not see the NY Times as such an authoritative source as you seem to. Nevertheless, the editors published the article with a byline of an individual author. Typically if they wanted to publish an opinion intended to speak for the entire organization, they would sign it as "The Editors" or something to that effect. Even then you'd have a survey of what, a few dozen journalists?
