New York Times social media guidelines prohibit expression suggesting partiality on things like ICE, execution of foreigners in fishing boats, or whether law is a thing.
However, tipping off notorious serial pedophiles about other reporters is absolutely fine.

Jeffrey Epstein [jeevacation@gmail.com]
He is digging around again -- not clear if its another book/or expanded paperback version. Was asking me all sorts of questions about why you hired Ken Starr. I told him I had no idea - I think he is doing some Trump-related digging too.
Anyway, for what its worth...

"Convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein" is a phrase that first appeared in newspapers in March 2011 and appeared regularly from that point onward. it is INCONCEIVABLE to me that this many people were still associating with him!!

As much as I dislike coal companies, the people who run them, and the devastation their mines have wrought, especially in Appalachia, I have the utmost respect for the people who work underground and hope this story has a good ending. Nobody deserves to die in darkness like that.
Crews are pumping about 6,000 gallons of water a minute from the Rolling Thunder Mine. After a wall holding back an unknown pocket of water was compromised, 17 miners made it out safely.

The chaos adds to the stress. Young adults I spoke to while reporting named the uncertainty around SNAP and the back-and-forth as part of what was taking such a heavy toll—not knowing what to prioritize, or how to plan. Even as benefits begin to go out, that kind of uncertainty is devastating.

Now he's back with a vengeance—and the online right can't stop fighting over whether to condemn him or welcome him. My story: wapo.st/4nJbt4M
