Even as NYT chief Joe Kahn was clamping down on the newsroom, he offered praise to then-President Joe Biden for backing Israel’s genocide.

Halfway through a meandering question on Gaza, Healy said: “Some critics say we’re mouthpieces for Hamas.” Wait, what?

Only a handful of zealots fit this bill, and maybe the most conspicuous example—the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (CAMERA)—has a familial tie to Kahn.

Was Healy gaslighting readers? I wondered. Or was he about to disclose Kahn’s tie to readers? (Spoiler: he didn’t; nor did Kahn.)
