I want to be wrong - The New York Times is probably done because of the Baldoni vs Lively/NYT lawsuit, marking an end to the 4th estate. It started with Hulk Hogan vs Gawker, and now we’re witnessing the end of the NYT. From 2016 to 2025, it has taken just 9 years. This is my opinion ONLY.

As a Jewish person I'm horrified, but I want folks to see what they voted for.
