Leftists are in firm control at The New York Times: Goodwin

By Thomas A. Smith

In a lecture at Hillsdale College last year about the erosion of standards at The New York Times, I borrowed a memorable exchange from Ernest Hemingway s novel The Sun Also Rises.

How did you go bankrupt? Bill asks. Two ways, Mike responds. Gradually and then suddenly.

For the Times, suddenly has arrived. Its standards are now bankrupt.

The revolt of the paper s newsroom over the publication of Sen. Tom Cotton s op-ed and the craven surrender of management marks the end of any semblance of basic fairness. The gradual metamorphosis of the Times from a great newspaper into a leftist propaganda sheet is complete.
