NY times is New York City. They do cover the whole metro region and obviously the whole world, but I don't think they have a dedicated Long Island desk or anything like that. They also don't routinely cover anything north or west of Westchester.

- TedDoesntTalk 4y ago> The NYTimes is America's preeminent newspaper I think you’re about 30 years too late for that comment.
- LarryMullins 4y agoWhat newspaper do you think has overtaken it, the Washington Post or the Wallstreet Journal? Those three are the big ones, particularly the first two. They're America's de facto newspapers of record.
- throwayyy479087 4y agoUsed to be true. WSJ wears that crown now.
- dragonwriter 4y ago> The NYTimes is America’s preeminent newspaper, But does that mean anything? Newspapers (as a class) aren’t where people get news anymore. Also, by what measure? By this trust rating: https://today.yougov.com/topics/politics/articles-reports/2022/04/05/trust-media-2022-where-americans-get-news-poll https://today.yougov.com/topics/politics/articles-reports/20... the Times is below the Wall Street Journal, the WaPo, and the Guardian, and barely above USA Today.
- tootie 4y agoBeing trusted or respected doesn't mean they uncover absolutely everything that's ever happened before everyone else. They break tons of news but they aren't going to run a background check on the literally thousands of candidates for office every cycle.
