That bastion of journalistic integrity. A pillar of truth and honesty. How would the country survive without its sharp insight, integrity and forthright elucidation.

Hard to tell if it's a well timed stroke by workers trying for financial gain or a planned smoke screen of electronic news by the company. Either way just a bit more chaos in this whole mess.

 

[Mr.W.]

This is a well planned maneuver. Still, I couldn't care less; that rag peddles lies with the best, and with apparent impunity.

 

[Gofer]

Bet their 100 readers are upset…

Amen, Sld !
Almost exactly what I was thinking…

You think there are that many people who can still read living in NYC?

 

[NMEDGE]

Screw them. Nothing but a bunch of commies!

 

[Old_Me]

well i for one and very concerned about this...

every morning the young lady that delivers the many different newspapers to the CVS store i go to each morning, will be getting there much earlier now, since she will not have to wait for the NYT stack.

that means, i can get my local paper sooner, get out of CVS faster, doing more early morning errands, and getting an extra nap each day, until the strike is over..

so what that means for me is, when the strike is settled........i'll get 1 less nap in.....

terrible, just terrible news........(pun intended)

That rag still in print form on newsprint paper?

It is not entirely useless - it can have a dual use as hamster/gerbil cage padding.

Why would you want to torture hamsters and gerbils like that? What kind of person are you? I bet you secretly turn people with squirrels into the authorities! (Just a joke, don't have me banned please)

I haven't read a newspaper in about 25 years...I admit to being a conservative cretin.

 

[mikep]

I work in academia and “the times” is revered as printing gospel truth. The faces i get when someone references “the gray lady” i simply say, “oh that rag?”

I think you're safe. It's so the rodents can rip it up and chew it then use it for it's best use of all!

What we must look like to other governments in other countries of this world.
Talk about a laughing stock.
