Nothing suprising in this but good to see a former editor for them come out and admit it.

There really needs to be a congressional investigtion into the media and how it operates against America....spinning, lying, and covering up the truth.

Our msm is lilttle more than a huge propaganda operation. Gobbels would really admire them.

LOL! Why does there need to be any such investigation?

And whining about the msm when citing Fox is rather deliciously ironic.

No...just reveals your lack of proper perspective...even a liar occasionally tells the truth...that is the worst thing about a liar...sometimes telling the truth.

The NYT is “anti-Trump” because Trump is objectively awful and his supporters are troglodytes.

An absurd claim from Fox News’s Howard Kurtz

https://www.washingtonpost.com/blog...claim-from-fox-newss-howard-kurtz/?noredirect

https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/fox-news/

Comments made by a disgruntled fired former NYT employee quoted from the linked article provided in the OP:

Abramson is candid in acknowledging her faults. When then-publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr. was considering promoting her to the top job, he told her over lunch at Le Bernadin: “Everyone knows there’s a good Jill and a bad Jill. The big question for me is which one we’ll see if you become executive editor.”

She admitted to him that “I could be self-righteous when I felt unheard, I interrupted, I didn’t listen enough.”

It was a heated battle with Baquet that led to her ouster in 2014. He was furious upon learning that she was trying to trying to recruit another top journalist—Abramson says an executive ordered her to keep it secret—who would share the managing editor’s title.

The incoming House has a lot more interest in the existing 17 investigations revolving around Chump than delving into perceived bias by the New York Times.

The bias is the reason for the investigations. Are you one of those that has to have everything explained?

You care more about your fantasy investigations than the real ones surrounding this horrible President.

Nah. It just reveals that you have no grasp of reality.

You still cannot explain why any such investigation would be necessary.

The msm has become the enemy of the people.....what more of a reason is needed?

I am seeing quickly this is the type of board with posters who require someone to lead them around by the nose or else they fall in the ditch.
