Modern Journalism.

One thing I learned doing video journalism is that at the end of the day, the readers decide what they want the news to cover. I made a number of videos that I thought were "important". Relevant people talking about objectively important issues (often foreign policy related), etc.

But no matter how well done or how important the subject, website visitors only clicked on what they wanted and that was almost always the most sensational and least broadly important type of stories -- usually political and/or celebrity gossip, to put a finer point on it.

The NYT has now dipped its toes into discussing Biden's age and overall mental fitness just a few times -- something the rest of us have been talking about for years, but which the NYT readership doesn't want to hear anything about. Each time, it's gotten beaten up by its own readers (including prominent morons like Shi) threatening to cancel their subscriptions because they have the audacity to address an important issue they don't want to talk about.

I've seen a bunch of these fools claim that NYT is "pushing Trump" and that it has become a "right wing" publication.

Your brain has to be absolute mush to believe any of that, but these people are loud and obnoxious, and I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of folks inside the NYT newsroom are just as deluded, so I'm assuming NYT will get the message and stop running any negative stories about Biden ever.

Cause that's what modern "journalism" looks like: Shilling for a Democrat while exclusively focusing critical reporting on his opponent.
