It's pretty grimly funny seeing this in the NYT, days after the banner, page-spanning headline blaring "Israel strike kills hundreds in hospital, Palestinians say" https://twitter.com/ShaykhSulaiman/status/171442640676182856.... It appears that every one of the first six words is a lie, and a misfired rocket from Islamic Jihad killed dozens of people in the hospital's parking lot. And then the tepid followup: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/18/business/media/hospital-b...: "After Hospital Blast, Headlines Shift With Changing Claims: The fast-moving events highlighted the difficulty of covering the war between Israel and Hamas." OSINT Twitter accounts were more judicious and ultimately more accurate way faster.
The NYT is fine if one wants a particular slant to the news, and it may be that social media companies think many people don't. Their cooking vertical for recipes is really good, though.
And this comment is ignoring the way the NYT and other legacy media have been attacking the tech industry since Nov. 2016.
