    Bullshit. When this garbage gets posted it is absolutely fair to point out the lefts overwhelming hypocrisy when it came to their giving obama a pass for every word that came out of his mouth and doing the exact opposite with trump.

    The left looks like partisan hacks when they do this.

    Keep it up though, it's absolutely what we expect.

    Just look at the seats they've lost since the 2010 mid-terms. They just keep shooting themselves in the foot, then wonder why it hurts.

    People having something in the head called brain in the left ... and blinded follower with switched off brain if still having this organ in the right. Glad to see that people with brain are in the USA still a majority!

    Cmon. Haha. I think some click bait leftists that sleep with IVs of lefty socialism hooked into their arm actually thought that picture on the right was Trumps inauguration. It's not haha. It has been debunked a thousand times.

    I think it's like some national quilting day event or something.

    As to the OP. The NYT after getting slammed for undisputable biased and false reporting during the election? Made a half hearted attempt for what? A month? To come back to the light... Then something just snapped inside that organization and they have just gone bat ***** crazy. 100% given themselves over to the dark side. The New York Times.

    I actually feel bad. That paper in decades past if you thought American Journalism? Or news? That's the name anyone in the world thought.

    Now? Reduced to the level of a click bait gossip rag.

    Usual righty reaction of rating uncomfortable facts down with bla bla bla and wild accusations against the left, because no facts to disproof it ... aside Spicers new term of "this is an alternative truth"?

    Unfortunately that's not true, actually I don't want it to be true I want them to get their act together. The NYT is an American icon.

    NYT stock is selling @ $18 and is up 35% from beginning of year. Digital advertising and that pay wall. IE click bait subscriptions.

    In its most recent earnings report, the Times said print advertising revenue fell nearly 18% in the first quarter, while digital ad revenue increased by nearly 19% and accounted for more than 38% of the company’s total ad revenue.

    The Times recently named its former head of advertising and subscription revenue, Meredith Kopit Levien, as the company’s chief operating officer. Kopit Levien is charged with streamlining and accelerating the operations of the rapidly growing digital businesses.

    Meredith Leviens Bio. Talk about come from nothing. Kiss the NYTs arse goodbye America as you know it. She's a click bait used car salesman. She has neither journalism credentials or leadership credentials to be at that level.. She does have click bait cred.

    Levien was born Meredith Kopit and raised in metropolitan Richmond, Virginia.[1] She graduated from the University of Virginia[2] where she majored in rhetoric and worked at the college newspaper, The Cavalier Daily.[3] After school, she worked at The Advisory Board Company, a think tank founded by David G. Bradley and then for the digital agency i33/AppNet. After Bradley bought Atlantic Media (publisher of The Atlantic magazine), he rehired her in 2003, and she sold advertising eventually working her way up to associate publisher.[3]

    You guys have fun with this stupid thread haha. Have you seen the Russian collusion wheels falling off? President Trump when he took office said he wasn't going to hold grudges. Now? I think you lefties are in for some legal shock and awe

    I'm not a righty I'm a patriotic Libertarian American. Your a foreigner. I could give a rats arse what you think. Your opinions are shallow, self serving, socialist, begging drivel. Your opinions are 90% crying.

    I would get quite a chuckle if Putin invaded your country, Sigh but he can't since Euros are grab assing each other hiding in socialist bliss under NATO that I pay for.

    Oh yes ... and it came what I expected as answer! Hurray!

    I am a silly idiot of foreigner (who better should shut up) and who has no clue about things, because I am a lefty and self serving ... and yes, Russia will of course invade us next week or so and would have still done since 1990 when the USA would not be there!
    And you pay for NATO? I get a laugh... you are really so stupid to believe this BS?

    I really hoped for something better as this nonsense as reaction which shows the knowledge of a so called red neck in the USA!

    I said zero about you personally. I referred to your opinions. However.. If you want to talk about yourself in a negative way.. I think it's ok if I agree with you :)

    PF forums are full of euro socialists that jump on the bandwagon with our more progressive American lefties to rant their socialist, hate filled agendas. It amuses me the transparency of it all

    None of your and the leftists opinions can change what's happening in America MY country. We slowly as a group are coming more back to the middle away from Obamas identity driven, racist, divisive, globalism socialist progressive left politics.

    Yes I pay for NATO. I see the checks being written to protect a bunch of globalist socialists which is all Europe is now. It's public record. I don't live there and I don't care about Euros telling their children Putin is the monster under their bed.

    Chuckles @ the personal attack but in reality it's a compliment. My southern Texas upbringing with common sense being our backbone has gotten me a long way. There are some awfully wise rednecks. I'm not one but maybe someday.

    Very different.
    Trump reinvents history and lies about the truth all the time. Why can't you see this? He is very obvious.

    NATO countries other than USA don't need to pay more.

    USA should pay more for the fiascos in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, and Yemen. USA fomented the crisis in these countries and gave birth to ISIS.

    USA created Al Qaeda in 70s and 80s to commit terrorist acts against Russians and Afghans.

    USA is currently training arming and funding fighters in Syria who may eventually turn on USA like Al Qaeda did.

    USA should be funding all the war activities and financing the later reconstruction of these countries, and USA should be compensating Europe for the refugee influx.

    I agree. Shocked? Your speaking about the ME though and not Europe's paranoid preoccupation of thinking Putins peeking around every border.

    The only thing incorrect about your opinion there is who created Al Qaeda. It was the Sauds. However we the US have no problem using them too. It's distasteful to say the least. This below is a Saud official admitting it.

    He explained that Saudi support for Islamic extremism started in the early 1960s as a counter to Nasserism—the socialist political ideology that came out of the thinking of Egypt’s Gamal Abdel Nasser—which threatened Saudi Arabia and led to war between the two countries along the Yemen border. This tactic allowed them to successfully contain Nasserism, and the Saudis concluded that Islamism could be a powerful tool with broader utility.

    Why can't I see what (having already admitted Trump is a liar)? Obama lied his ass off about Obama Care.

    Frankly, when Trump lies about how many people attended his inauguration that's comically absurd.
    But when Obama lies about the true costs of Obama Care and how it's designed to fail those are the sort of consequential lies I care about.
    Because people have to live with premiums that have risen 140% since Obama Care took over. Who cares how many people showed
    up at his inauguration?

    The anti Trump hysteria, true hysteria, is reflected in your comments.

    Obama made it clear that the ACA would have to be upgraded. Anti Trump hysteria? More like decent people who don't want to see
    our country go to hell due the the incompetence of this president. Since he doesn't know what he doesn't know, he needs to surround himself with people who can properly advise him. He thinks he "knows more than the generals" and this tells the story in my view.

    He also
    made it clear the average Obama Care user would save (SAVE!) $2,500 per year...instead of premiums going up 140%, like they have.
    Your cover is weak, just like the so called Affordable Care plan.

    His claim that people could keep their own doctor under Obama Care....was Politifact's Lie of the Year!
    Don't try to pretend he hasn't been every bit the liar Trump is....and far more!


    His style may suck, I certainly don't like it, but so far in my estimation (judicial appointment, ditching the Paris Accord, putting brakes on Iran deal, Obama's gender based school decrees, etc.) he's surpassed my expectations by far (not that he doesn't have much more to do).

    Aside from hysterical democrats filling their underwear with crap in consternation how is our country "going to hell"?
    How ironic you attempt to deny leftist hysteria by posting yet more of the same.

    It's what happens when they get an ever increasing share of a shrinking market for liberal tripe. We call it a slow death.

    I must have read the numbers wrong, sorry. But $17.80 as of close of market today still represents stock that is 42% of what it was in 2001. I believe what your seeing is the last gasps of a dying business. Losing 40+% of it's value would have me saying "SELL!"

    Not even close. Trump is the best thing for America since apple pie. He's actually leading. Although I hope he doesn't get carpel tunnels from rescinding all of Bo Peeps EOs
