Even if it’s true that Urbina scammed all those musicians (he claims he didn’t make any money which is believable considering how little an online stream pays), it has nothing to do with the NYTimes considering the actions in question were after he left the newspaper and started his own company.
If anything, the NYTimes itself is a victim of the scam (and definitely bad IT practice) since the musicians claim he sent the mails from his NYT address even thiugh he wasn’t employed by them anymore.
