I'm among the hundreds of people laid off by The Post. This comes six months after hearing in a national meeting that race coverage drives subscriptions. This wasn't a financial decision, it was an ideological one.

Charlie Kirk’s positions were actually fairly moderate. And yet they killed him for them and celebrated the murder. If you or your loved ones held those beliefs, they would do the same to you without remorse.

The Times was denounced by its own writers as well as pundits because it reported news that was deemed harmful to the Democrats, specifically Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani. It was a catastrophically triggering event for many on the left...

Y’all have made me come back to X just to make clear that those sharing this screenshot and pretending it’s about Mamdani are either intentionally engaging in misinformation or are inexcusably gullible. I haven’t worn my hair like this in three years. This tweet is five years

New polling from @DataProgress confirms a strong inverse relationship between news consumption and support for Trump. Those who paid "a great deal" of attention to political news were Harris +6 while those who paid "none at all" went +19 points for Trump https://t.co/JqJU2ecYey
