New York Times fires back after Trump threat

27. Who said anything about hating the NYT?

Of course the NYT needs Trump. He sells subscriptions and they want access. This isn’t about hating the news paper. Given the sad state of journalism, it’s actually one of the better newspapers out there.

I know the lawsuit against CBS is “real”, but it’s also performative on the part of CBS and it’s more about preserving capital, rather than fighting for journalistic ethics or whatever other bullshit. In the end both the NYT and CBS will settle and more or less on Trump’s terms.
