The New York Times has, several days after Breitbart News first exposed politics editor Tom Wright-Piersanti’s racist and antisemitic comments on Twitter, admitted the comments were in fact racist and antisemitic.
A piece the New York Times released on Sunday, which described a broader operation of loosely organized supporters of President Donald Trump fighting back against the media with aggressive new tactics, was the first time the newspaper in its own pages addressed the scandal regarding Wright-Piersanti. In the piece, the Times reveals that it considers the tweets racist and antisemitic. Before this piece, the Times had only described the content as a “violation†of its standards–and Wright-Piersanti had only described the content as “offensive.†Now, for the first time on Sunday–three days after Breitbart News broke the story on Thursday–the Times admitted they were both racist and antisemitic.
The Times piece, authored by Jeremy Peters and Ken Vogel, said:
The operation’s tactics were on display last week, seemingly in response to two pieces in The Times that angered Mr. Trump’s allies. The paper’s editorial board published an editorial on Wednesday accusing Mr. Trump of fomenting anti-Semitism, and the newsroom published a profile on Thursday morning of Ms. Grisham, the new White House press secretary, which included unflattering details about her employment history.
One person involved in the effort said the pro-Trump forces, aware ahead of time about the coverage of Ms. Grisham, were prepared to respond. Early Thursday morning, soon after the profile appeared online, Breitbart News published an article that documented anti-Semitic and racist tweets written a decade ago by Tom Wright-Piersanti, who was in college at the time and has since become an editor on the Times’ politics desk. The Times said it was reviewing the matter and considered the posts “a clear violation of our standards.â€

Fun to see which way this goes. Will he have grown with the job or is his past behavior unacceptable?
Stay tuned.

NYT is horrified, just horrified, that the same tactics they use against conservative journalists are being used against leftist "journalists."

I am morally opposed to doxing, but it is nice to see the left get a taste of it's own medicine.
Edited for spelling since I have stumpy fingers.

Next editor likely Whoopi Goldberg. A three-for.
A black with a Jewish name could never be racist or anti-semantic or sexist, could she?

Joy Behar is the same thing except not Black. Be(on,in,around) Har(mountain) is a Hebrew name. It means literally in Hebrew 'on the mountain'. Joy Behar is a fake Jewish name of Josephine Occhiuto, a Roman Catholic from Brooklyn. Don't know what it is about The View and fake Jewish names, but it seems to be a thing for some reason.

Wasn't her first husband named Behar?

And of course they deflect from their racist editor by playing the victim card.
Lib media outlets like the MY Times made the rules for this game...now they're pissed they are being used against them.

What are the odds Tom Wright-Piersanti will get a wrist-slap from a hand wearing boxing gloves? If that much.
And the NYT is howling at a "conspiracy" to tell truths the NYT doesn't want told. :silly: !
