Do you think there exist any circumstances in which the NYT would say anything against the liberal narrative? Specifically, if there was incontrovertible evidence of government waste uncovered by DOGE, or anything else where there were facts and evidence but stating them would make the president look good, would NYT report it? Or would they ignore it? Or, just a theory here, maybe they would minimize it? You know, get the views from the story but apply a treatment to reduce values, like say, dollar values? Could they ever be capable of such a thing?
- watwut 2y agoDOGE uncovered its own waste and incompetence, that is about it.
- Frankion 2y agoWhere is this huge waste though? Musk said they will clean up, I only have seen false information, wrong numbers and the removal of a few millions of aid which is something the biggest economy on the planet should easily be able to afford. If condoms against HIV is the biggest win so far, the question would be if it's valid to disrupt millions of lives and destroying/ignoring the separation of power in a / the biggest democracy we nlknow.

- skepticATX 2y agoThey'd absolutely report on it. I consume news from many different conservative and liberal sources. NYT newsroom is still one of the best and while bias can't be completely eliminated, they are fair. The opinion section of course leans to the left, and I find little value in it, but that has no bearing on the newsroom.
- aredox 2y agoThe NYT has decades of qualification in uncovering government waste from all administrations. Their greatest failure - the fake pretense that led to the second US-Iraq war - occured in favor of a Republican administration.
- lawn 2y ago> Do you think there exist any circumstances in which the NYT would say anything against the liberal narrative? Get real. NYT has promoted Trump bullshit lies for years.
