The family that owns The New York Times were slaveholders: Goodwin

It’s far worse than I thought. In addition to the many links between the family that owns The New York Times and the Civil War Confederacy, new evidence shows that members of the extended family were slaveholders.

Last Sunday, I recounted that Bertha Levy Ochs, the mother of Times patriarch Adolph S. Ochs, supported the South and slavery. She was caught smuggling medicine to Confederates in a baby carriage and her brother Oscar joined the rebel army.

I have since learned that, according to a family history, Oscar Levy fought alongside two Mississippi cousins, meaning at least three members of Bertha’s family fought for secession.

Adolph Ochs’ own “Southern sympathies” were reflected in the content of the Chattanooga Times, the first newspaper he owned, and then The New York Times. The latter published an editorial in 1900 saying the Democratic Party, which Ochs supported, “may justly insist that the evils of negro suffrage were wantonly inflicted on them.”

Six years later, the Times published a glowing profile of Confederate President Jefferson Davis on the 100th anniversary of his birth, calling him “the great Southern leader.”

The the NY Times ,,, right in the middle of the 1619 Project ,,, avid supporters of BLM ,,, denigrating the United States for being racist and mean spirited ,,, was born of slaveowners and is owned by their descendants.

Like Bari, this will be made to disappear.

A great quote from this piece:

I will forever be grateful to the lessons I learned during my 16 years there. But it was a different paper then, one where standards of fairness were enforced and reporters’ biases were left on the cutting-room floor.


Now the standards are on the cutting-room floor, with every story dominated by reporters’ opinions. The result is a daily train wreck that bears little resemblance to the traditions of what used to be a great newspaper, trusted because it was impartial.

I have little personal knowledge of where the NYTime came from and the standards they held dear, but this quote certainly paints an accurate picture of that rag today.

 

Whoopsie. Time to cancel them. Hope all the woke leftists working there will throw themselves on the sword and do the moral thing and be consistent in their hate of slavery and all those involved.

 

The New York Times needs to be toppled.

 

Oh well if any of this stuff is actually true all that I can say is that even the best of families have black sheep.

 

Yep. If Democrats didn't have double standards, they'd have no standards at all.

 

No.
Imploded.

 

The paper was also a cheerleader for Hitler.

The New York Times needs dismantled & put in a museum where it belongs.

Obviously.

 

Not sure that the owners of the NYT who endorse Democrats for public office, care about slavery, since the Democratic Party is the slave party, the segregation party, the black codes party, etc...

 

WHY IS THE NEW YORK TIMES SUCH A CESSPIT OF OFFICIALLY TOLERATED HATE? NY Times writer Wajahat Ali makes eyebrow-raising claim about ‘many’ White GOP voters.

 

It gets worse:

Cancel the New York Times.

Time for these hypocrites to self-immolate.
