What went wrong at the New York Times? | Xtra Magazi...

"The people steering the transphobic coverage at the Times may not believe themselves to be bigots. That’s the entire problem: if they are able to believe this, it is only because they failed upward. This is what happens when people with privilege refuse to take feedback from the marginalized communities they report on."

It's become the Nepo Times. So many spouses of and children of editors and other reporters. This reduces accountability. Take just one lousy columnist, Bret Stephens. previously he was married to the Times Book Review editor, now he's married to a Times music critic.
