What does the NYT have to do with this?

grzm • Jan 26, 2017 • View on HN

I'd like to read more about this. Do you have references describing the NYT behavior in this case? Or examples?

RaduTyrsina • Aug 9, 2012 • View on HN

Sure, that's NY Times after all!

Posting NYT article isn't credible ... anymore.

SuperKlaus • Jun 3, 2015 • View on HN

Not sure why this gets downvoted - the NYT has a terrible track record reporting about issues like this so it's a fair point.

tree3 • Dec 3, 2019 • View on HN

Any reason why you singled out the NYT specifically?

stronglikedan • Dec 27, 2023 • View on HN

It's the New York Times. That's what they do.
