The New York Times Is In Trouble

We have noted here and elsewhere Sarah Palin’s libel case against the New York Times. In a June 14 editorial, the Times accused Palin of being responsible for Jared Loughner’s murder of six people in Tucson, Arizona. Since then, the Times has issued two corrections to the editorial.

The New York Slimes put on a blindfold, then got behind the wheel and hit the gas, shouting its party line BS into the public address system mounted on the roof.  When it goes up for sale, the buyer will have to be some leftist nitwit like Bezos, or the failed management won't sell.

They won't have a choice by that time.
They'll HAVE to sell.

The rag has been being propped up by someone or several for ages. About time they decided to cut their losses.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
