Philadephia Enquirer, The Guardian, Miami Herald, Salt Lake City Trib...there are others that still have integrity.

I just want to to say avoid The Atlantic and New York Times also, just for the transphobic garbage that they've been publishing alone.

Same here with LATimes for same reasons. Last paper dropped yesterday, buh bye

Same a while back. I was still playing their free crossword but I don't even want to give him ad revue at this point. Also have migrated all my subscribe and save stuff to Chewy and other sites.

Welcome to the club. I ditched them last year.

I gave them enough rope. Sad to see the paper in this state

It was a hard decision. Used to work in newspapers. Love them. But no. Ditched the NYT, too. Subscribed to The Atlantic. It’s pretty good.

I've got The Atlantic and NYT still. It'll be hard to ditch The Old Gray Lady, but I might have to

I did. Cancelled both Wapo and NYT. Kept the Atlantic and signed up for the New Republic and PN. Independant media is worth knowing

I did same, cancelled Wapo & NYT during the election. It’s only gotten worse since and I’m glad I did it. I kept Atlantic and have a few good substacks.

They seem to be mending their ways.
