Yesterday was a great day in our country. Millions of Americans participated in peaceful protests all over the country, including cities in Red States and even other countries. Millions. Hopefully, this signals the beginning of the early end of the Trump administration and the clowns he has appointed, with Republican Party complicity, to destroy the government and our international standing.
In reviewing the remarkably clever signs created by protesters around the country and marveling at the size of many of the crowds, I turned to the New York Times online, expecting to see the top headline and at least a photo from the huge turnout in New York City, despite bad weather. But, lo, what did my eyes behold but a photo of Donald Trump and, well, see for yourself:
If you skip the dog story and the “Analysis” whose title suggests everything is going to be ok, scroll down a screen, you see this:
A presidential seal and another photo of Trump dominate the page. In the lower left corner, you finally reach the report about the nationwide protests over Trump’s attempt to destroy the federal government.
Do the editors of the New York Times now thing a story about dogs in the workplace and talking about women’s cleavage there is more important? This presentation reminded me of how CNN had promoted Trump in the run-up to the 2016 election, showing constant pictures of podiums while waiting for Trump to appear. This is a Washington Post type presentation in the post-Bezos-ownership era.
The Times owes the world an explanation.



I read the NYT online but have not been keeping track of their bias. My observation has been that New Yorkers tend to make outsized allowances for the home team guy.
Yes, but he’s OUR wannabe dictator.
My mother’s father was a Long Island developer, e.g. Forest Hills. The company still does successful ventures. Their long-time president found Trump OK to deal with.
