If that is your meaning, I absolutely agree.

Simply realize that they NYT Opinion page is not news. It is propaganda.

Listen, I'm fully aware that they any postings are just opinions, if I choose something from them, some think that they contain a lot of propaganda, and partly they doing it, that I agree, but also "easy news" contains an indirect propaganda, and you will understand now, what I have said about this.

Right, former Soviet satelite If your ability to ases biased from non-biased media news and opinions is the same as your knowledge of history than you're the one talking nonsense on this thread

And it's tough in these opresive Slovenian regime I'm only allowed to publicly critisise my goverment 5000 times a day or less. Anything more than that and I get a verbal warning from a cop I'm so oppresed I want to emigrate to the nearest pub

So you resent people talking inaccurately about your country? Then perhaps you ought to see how that applies to you talk about ours.

The New York Times is biased. Their Opinion page is even more biased. Simple as. You can snivel and joke all you want but it isn't going to change that simple fact.

Send a letter to the author, not the vendor

The author, of the original post in this thread, was Vendor; and I do not question his motives, only the method.

If I were to routinely post opinion pieces from The Blaze, Breitbart, The Heritage Foundation blogs, etc. I would certainly not expect to be given a pass by the many members of this forum who may disagree with the posted opinions. (Not to mention I'd feel the need to take a hot shower afterward, despite what you may think)

As Vendor has stated, I believe, he retains the privilege to post as he wishes on this site, within the established rules.

He does not retain the privilege of being free from criticism from those who may disagree with his choice of source.

But Paul Krugman says we should spend our way out of this!
Frank Rich is a shill for the government in general.
Maureen Dowd is a beautiful redhead, unmarried fiftysomething, man hating and women-centric...You connect the dots
Bruni is a moron outright. The fella that resigned was way better.

Kinda work in NYC, this paper is always sitting on a train seat.

NEAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Change Vendors title to Subsim news and opinions man, that should keep some people happy Until Vendor makes a mistake and posts a weather forecast

And I'm off to the pub

So you resent people talking inaccurately about your country?

I see no resentment in the post, lots of ridicule though.

Can we all move on please....no rule violations have taken place and views and opinions are being debated at an acceptable level.

TIA

I have never denied that take constructive criticism, and there is no one who has these privileges.

Not especially. Their only value is as a counterpoint to the other major media outlets. If they say the answer is negative 5 and ABC/NBC/CBS/etc say it's positive 5 then you can pretty much bet the true answer is zero.
