Does anybody out there still bother to read the laughingstock, fake-news New York Times ? Sheeesh! This silly, ultra-liberal rag has been polluting newsstands for as long as I can remember. With mountains of fake news, and sourceless “reports”, gullible liberals continue to waste their money.
I first came to realize what a joke the Times was (and still is) back in 1979, during the infamous (and quite funny) Times-National Enquirer feud. Some Times writers had been ridiculing the National Enquirer, berating it as nothing but sensationalist trash. But after the Times printed this >> “The oil shortage is a hoax”, and stated it was according to an unknown soured, the Enquirer made the Times eat their words.
The Enquirer also reported the quote, but stated it as >> according to Senator Howard Metzenbaum (D-Ohio), head of the Senate Energy Committee.
Egg on Times’ face then. Egg on their face now. The Times is now reporting that Vice President Pence is seeking a 2020 run for the presidency. Only 1 problem. Pence isn’t and he emphatically denounced the Times fake-news declaration as “absurd” and “offensive” (ABC News). Pence further called the Times “report”, categorically FALSE, and disgraceful”. Compounding the criticism, White House aide, Kelly Anne Conway called the Times “story” >> “fiction” and “a fabrication.”
Looks like the Times takes their readership for granted. Will they believe anything the Times prints ? I suggest an experiment. Have the Times print that it has been determined that the earth is actually flat. Then check to see how many Times readers go along.
