Sorry to say it but this is absolutely true. The surest way to register your discontent with the focus and quality of the NYT's journalism is to disengage from the publication's biggest revenue driver.

The Office. Not a single episode even by accident!
Inspired by a post I just saw in which someone admitted they hadn’t seen a single episode of Friends nor the film Love Actually… what cultural hole do you have that’s a bit weird for your generation?
