It's ridiculous. He doesn't have character and he doesn't have a strategy. And WTF is wrong with NYT? Desperate much?

Vanguard Group Inc, BlackRock Inc have controlling interest in the NYT, and since 2023 they have been leaning a heavy MAGA narrative - they want a Trump victory.

James is Eric Prince still involved? I know he changed BlackrockтАЩs name 2 or 3 times and sold most of it.

BlackRock, is an investment firm, Prince's Mercs were called "Blackwater" I made the same mistake, my financially savvy spouse corrected me.

Here's a blurb on the name changes.

"Academi, formerly known as Blackwater and Blackwater Worldwide, is an American private military contractor founded on December 26, 1997, by former Navy SEAL officer Erik Prince. It was renamed Xe Services in 2009, and was again renamed to Academi in 2011, after it was acquired by a group of private investors." from Wikipedia.

WTF is wrong with NYT? It's obvious. They are afraid of losing the eyes and ears of the few MAGA people, those that can read at least. They have to throw some bones to them to keep them on board, so they throw in some tasty morsels for them to eat up. They can't rely on just intelligent and sensible people to follow their content. Their new motto: "All the news that's fit to pimp!"

well, it's not only that, but the owners of the New York Times are usually millionaires and billionaires, and they want the tax breaks that DoTard promised to give them.

I think is more of the reason.
