May 2018

Do they show any details about that story that helped get Trump elected “FBI sees no ties to Russia?” Would be interesting to know who was the source. NY FBI officers?

I love the NYT and I consider it the paper of record. But they have many problems - cowed by bothsidesism, a poor opinion page editor who has hired mediocrities like Stephens and Weiss, and the lack of a public editor who can challenge them on errors.

It would be great if the series covered anything about the public editor, what she did about the Russia (and Clinton Cash) stories that helped Trump, and why she was fired.
