The Washington Post’s cartoon team has taken a measure of revenge on the newspaper’s decision to avoid making a formal presidential endorsement with a dark formless image clearly designed to skewer the “Democracy Dies in Darkness” slogan that the outlet adopted during billionaire Jeff Bezos’s ownership.
The image was published hours after it was revealed that Bezos, who has owned the paper since 2012, had pulled the plug on a prepared endorsement of Kamala Harris over Donald Trump in the 5 November election.
The cartoon commentary was created by Pulitzer prize-winning illustrator Ann Telnaes, who is known for her incisive political representations.
I lost respect for the NYT after their How Hamas weaponized sexual violence story turned out to be a much of hearsay featuring a writer who liked a post calling Palestinians human animals
Not just hearsay, written by an ex IDF soldier without any journalistic experience.
Nobody should support NYT financially. It is a disservice to journalism.
I’m fine with right wingers in my media honestly. I need to see their arguments anyway. I don’t want to be blind to what the far right is talking about.
But with that being said, the NYT has a lot of questionable stories. Beyond just right wing trash that I honestly am cool with.
You may be interested in The Righting then. It’s an aggregate for centrists/leftists to read what the right wing is writing. The creator often has short columns as well.
