Yesterday, 1,400 protests were held to protest the Trump whose headlines fill this page. But to the #BrokenTimes this morning, they are a buried BTW. It has plenty of photos; none here. This is what they call "news judgment." To the Times, we are not news.

As his destruction unfurled, why did the #BrokenTimes choose to show Trump in a five-day-old photo at the White House, supposedly presidential, when he has instead been golfing with Saudis in Mar-a-Lago? That's a rhetorical question.

1. Hopefully, more people will...

... STOP sending money to The New York Times!

[Trueblue Texan]

8. I cancelled my subscription months before the election.

Cancelled my subscription to the post after "Bonesaw Bezos" became a Trump sycophant. Never send another dime to either of them. Have significantly decreased my Amazon purchases, but they still have me tethered. Trying to break free and chisel their hold on me every opportunity.

11. About the Washington Post

I have a year subscription to them paid for by a friend. Not about to cancel that.

2. Here is the front page of the NYT for Sunday, April 6, 2025.

The demonstrations are below the fold, but they made the front page.

And good morning.

[Dennis Donovan]

4. Thanks!

Yeah, still below the fold. Good morning!

[choie]

5. Great - it how many people read the hard copy

version compared to the online version. Either way, it should have been a fucking headline story.

[Farmer-Rick]

13. Tagging Teslas With Swastikas: Hate Crime or Attack on Musk?

What a very stupid headline. It's more like an opinion piece title than reporting on over 1,000 protests against Trump and his drug monkey.

Why bring Tesla in at all? It was a protest of more than a drug monkey gone wild in our federal government. But you would never know it from that stupid title.

Oh well, Trump could never have succeeded without the full cooperation of the corporate media.

[chia]

14. Below the fold, and the story is on page 18.

[Clouds Passing]

16. Talk about subliminal messaging...

Making it appear as if the protesters are tagging muck’s nazicars with swastlas. NYT is so dirty.

[Dennis Donovan]

3. The pic they should've gone with:

This is the image the #BrokenTimes could have run with its story, if it were not trying to fluff the Führer. It's the picture the AP ran:

7. Online, the "front page," or splash page, is the first thing you see when

you go to the site.

https://www.nytimes.com/

I’m on a phone with a small screen. Nothing about the demonstrations shows up right away.

[AllyCat]

6. And who was it here that clapped back at me for calling

Them the New Nazi Times?

This paper is awful.

[wolfie001]

9. The pic of the lying sack of shite with his tiny fist is very Hitlerian

NYT's fail once again. What a nasty eco-system they work in. Pushing anti-Democratic sewage. Not by accident obviously. They just play along so they'll be invited to fancy cocktail parties and free tickets to ritzy events. Maybe get a free Tesla truck here and there. We'd never know. They wouldn't admit anything.



p.s.- Also: "The blow may not be fatal." Always a bit of hope to satisfy the RW loonies.

[Paladin]

10. Why would ANY DEMOCRAT expect any better from the NY Times?

Or any other member of the Mainstream Media? They insured trump's return to the White House, just as surely as Elon Musk did. Absolutely unforgivable....

[Magoo48]

12. Who reads that rag? MSM, bought, paid for, and heavily censored.

[chia]

15. With few exceptions, legacy media has failed us. The irony is the right still screams about "the MSM."

[mahatmakanejeeves]

17. And the only mention of it on the actual print front page is just an image with a caption

To put more emphasis on this: Hundreds of thousands of Americans in at least 1400 cities and towns across the country, including in heavily Republican areas that never protest, protested Trump and Musk and their 401Ks being wiped out yesterday, and it’s NOT a main front page story in the Times.

And the only mention of it on the actual print front page is just an image with a caption telling people they need to turn to page 18 to read about it. Not worthy of a front page story, apparently.

18. It's a ssd day when both NYT and Fox don't tell Americans what's happening on their streets and in their towns.

Both are promoting the oligarchy, just the NYT is usually more circumspect than this and tells the truth more often.
