NY Times is a great publication lol

The New York Times pushed fabricated evidence in the run up to the Iraq war. A year later, the newspaper apologized for its inaccurate, one-sided coverage.

The U.S. and the New York Times pretended that Syria's government was responsible for the chemical weapons attack … but that claim was debunked, and even the New York Times was forced to retract itseveral months later. (The alternative media, including Pulitzer prize winning reporter Seymour Hersh, has also pointed out that it was the Syrians rebels ? with the help of the Turkish government ? did it).

Then the U.S. and the New York Times pretended that they had proof that Russian soldiers were the mysterious "masked men" seizing government buildings in Russia. But a couple of days later, they were forced reporting from the alternative media ? especially Robert Parry, winner of the George Polk Award for National Reporting ? into retracting that claim, and admitting that their "proof" was almost as flimsy as proof of Saddam's "weapons of mass destruction".

It seems like the alternative media is forcing the New York Times to retract half-baked, pro-war, propaganda claims more and more quickly.

Good lowered, guy. If you think the NYT has a pro- war agenda, then you've really gone off the libertarian deep end.

Maybe not great, but an excellent publication. NYT and WSJ are basically doing the bulk of the digging for news in the US. Most other cable and print media react to the news reported by these organizations. One leans left and one lean right, but they do an excellent job getting g information out to us.

So you think the Syrian government had nothing to do with the gassing innocent victims? If so, why did it have such a store of WMD?

And, what, are the Russians really the peacemakers in Ukraine?

There's a place for you right next to Edward Snowden in Moscow.

Did you read the article about the guys in green in Ukraine? Piece seemed like it gave some pretty solid evidence including photographs where people were identified and matched to photos of other recent conflicts in which Russian security/intel forces have been involved.
