Letters from New York Times Employees During Strike
New York Slimes
Once a standard-bearer for exemplary journalism, The New York Times has now devolved into a propaganda machine that only serves one side of a story to promote an agenda. It seems far removed from the integrity and passion for objective truth that its founder, Adolph Ochs, once stood for with his motto, “All the news that’s fit to print.”
The Times’ current staff is criticized for not upholding the values of its founder, and instead, using the platform for biased reporting. The acorns have fallen far from the “Ochs” tree.
James Evans, Worcester, Mass.
Mayor Moron
Rudy Giuliani, a twice disbarred attorney who owes significant sums to women he defamed, is eying a return to the mayor’s office in New York. Criticized for his self-promotion and propaganda, Giuliani is compared unfavorably to the current mayor, suggesting that the current situation may not be as bad as it seems.
Louis J. Maione, Manhattan
Firing squads?
Concerns are raised about the interpretation of Donald Trump’s remarks about Liz Cheney and the use of firing squads. The imagery used could be taken as referring to a close-range firing squad scenario, raising issues of violence and inflammatory language.
Kimball Shinkoskey, Wood Cross, Utah
F train death
The selection of jury members in the homicide trial of Daniel Penny is questioned, with suggestions that subway commuters should serve on the jury due to the nature of the case involving a subway death. Statistics on subway-related assaults and murders are cited, highlighting the stressful commuting environment.
Marc D. Greenwood, Opelika, Ala.
Fair and just?
A discussion on the American political system and the principle of no one being above the law. The possibility of delaying sentencing for a convicted individual elected to a high office until after their term is completed is considered, balancing justice with the responsibilities of office.
Bruce Couchman, Ottawa, Canada
