1. The newspaper that gave us the Iraq war and the Hillary email scandal

The New York Times has never been on the side of democracy or truth. Don't be fooled.

2. THe newspaper that supported Hitler and berated Martin L King. nt

3. I don't understand the NYT anymore. Thinking of switching to the WaPo.

The huge story from last night, Mattis' statement, has already dropped off the front page. It's now hidden in Live Updates, and then you have to find the little link in that blurb to find the actual story, and then in that story is the link to his letter. It's almost like they are trying to hide it.

Plus I'm sick of Maggie Haberman.

4. WP is a far better newspaper and has done some real good for the country.

It is owned by Bezos, but he leaves it alone (as long as the reporters don't try to investigate his Amazon warehouses)

5. Another reason I am glad I dropped them for the WP
