Well, about 6% of Americans live in the NYC metro area. And many who don’t follow the NYT. So maybe it’s not that unexpected.

- hindsightbias 2y agoNew York City metropolitan region (metro region) is home to 23.5 million US population: 333M 23.5/333 = 0.0705
- aspenmayer 2y agoSo it's actually just over 7%? What are you trying to say?
- hindsightbias 2y agoThat the article is about nothing. 7% = 7%.
- aspenmayer 2y agoI don’t know why you think that but I don’t dispute that you found the article devoid of novelty or meaning. That aside, can you comment on the size or impact of NYT’s workforce relative to their proportion among journalists in USA or elsewhere? I don’t always agree with their framing, reporting, or the subjects thereof, but they do still publish a physical newspaper, which is a rarity these days, and one I do appreciate more than many of its peers simply for that reason. Alongside Wall Street Journal and Financial Times, it’s a harder sell, but it’s nice to have such horses for courses.
