Look, I’ve unsubscribed and resubscribe to the NYT a dozen times in the last few years. I, too, have been a target of the “ if you had any ethics you would quit” ire when I worked at Deadspin. But journalism jobs are few and far between these days, and there are very few “good” media owners.
Jonas@rasherdk.bsky.social · 9mo agoYou're not very principled if you're working for the NYT at this point. Or at least, it's the wrong damn principles.
