So the New York Times waited 15 days before he left office to admit the economy was strong under President Joe Biden? Amazing 💩, really. 🙄 - ThreadSky

Too little. Too late.

don-shea.bsky.social•53 days ago

That’s why I canceled them. It felt great, too.

stevebigd.bsky.social•56 days ago

It's about frigging time.

bubbettepettigree.bsky.social•57 days ago

I will unsubscribe once again for good.

tmack.bsky.social•53 days ago

MSM sucks!

mynahleague.bsky.social•58 days ago

Dem campaign messaging never reached voters because legacy media editors made political decisions, and not based on informing their readers or the electorate.

mxburbank.bsky.social•58 days ago

My only regret in cancelling my NYT sub is that I could only do it once.

nachoyourbizness.bsky.social•58 days ago

And WaPo! And the LA Times!

mxburbank.bsky.social•58 days ago

I was never subscribed to the LA Times, but I spent a good deal of my life reading the NYT and WaPo every day. It's a personal tragedy (and evidence of a national one) that I felt I had no choice but to cancel both subscriptions.

peacenluv1.bsky.social•58 days ago

He’s an idiot and I refuse to say his name any longer!

esqueer.net•58 days ago

Ask the media will switch into positivity mode when Trump takes office. One of the most brazen gaslighting attempts I've ever seen.

irish-norgie.bsky.social•58 days ago

Yeah. Screw the New York Times too!

resistsaj.bsky.social•57 days ago

He'll take credit for the economy come Jan 20 and his MSM buddies will push the narrative. It's how the GOP always operates. They did it for him in 2017 and blamed Biden when he killed hundreds of thousands of people with Covid.

brownyloxz.bsky.social•58 days ago

ericsadventures.bsky.social•58 days ago

yup besides the huge deficit and him being elected think it's going to really tough to improve on the economic numbers.

cjsturgis.bsky.social•58 days ago

I can't stand them or wapo. I don't watch CNN or MSNBC. I don't know what to watch for news anymore but I know what not to watch.

lillianorlando.bsky.social•58 days ago

Read instead.

cjsturgis.bsky.social•58 days ago

What would you suggest?

angrywhitelady.bsky.social•58 days ago

NPR, AP, Reuters, BBC, PBS

cjsturgis.bsky.social•58 days ago

Thank you

nachoyourbizness.bsky.social•58 days ago

Support substack journalist like Scott Dworkin, Seth Abramson, Marc Elias, and many others.
I have subscibed to the Guardian & Rolling Stone.
Pro Publica is great. Mother Jones. The Philadelphia Enquirer endorsed Kamala.

resistsaj.bsky.social•57 days ago

Mother Jones is a rag now.

tsunami65.bsky.social•56 days ago

Trump doesn't actually see the US as a disaster, but he needs to pretend it's a disaster so he can attack Biden and the Dems.

agentbigfoot.bsky.social•58 days ago

It is a disaster.

A nation of idiots.

ethics.bsky.social•53 days ago

The NYT has had that stance since last year. If you didn't see it, it doesn't mean they didn't.

tonybolognamacnchz.bsky.social•58 days ago

They just do what they are told and not in the best interests of the country!

corkiememtelong.bsky.social•53 days ago

He never really “saw” the US economy as a disaster. He just told that fairy tale to his Trumpists. He knows that people working two jobs at subsidence wages do not have time or means to fact check his lies.Trump lies, people die. It’s still as true today as it was in 2018-19.

sissy2step.bsky.social•57 days ago

And STILL lead the story with the Dumpster 's name⁉️👹🤬👹

bmcaymanian.algo.xyz•57 days ago

I hate them so much.

chrisdjackson.bsky.social•58 days ago

Good article, but it's amazing the media, including the NYT continually gave voters the impression the economy was terrible by always focusing on bad news.

The media failed to fairly cover Joe Biden and in effect, failed this nation into authoritarianism.

oldmanchalmers.bsky.social•58 days ago

Or given that the corporations wanted Trump to win, this is to be expected.

1drive.bsky.social•57 days ago

It just begs to wonder, was the "whole" of the nytimes head in a "hole" or did incoming president
musk, ooopppsss trump (either one = PINO) agree to let them smell what comes out of the buttocks so they would not report on a good US Biden economy that would segue into the next presidency?

susanmcgraw88.bsky.social•57 days ago

The NYT and WAPO are now enemies of democracy and the USA...misleading the public is not journalism...it's subversion of the truth. Unsubscribed to both.

debbie156.bsky.social•57 days ago

That’s true. Biden’s economic recovery was nothing short of stellar. I will always be grateful that he was POTUS after Covid.

virginiadark.bsky.social•58 days ago

Deliberately.

katzilla01.bsky.social•57 days ago

Agree Chris!

ellilanderson.bsky.social•58 days ago

A well-informed public is essential for self-governance and participation in democracy. The media is failing the citizens of the United States.

daisylee13.bsky.social•58 days ago

Hundred percent agree

drssb.bsky.social•58 days ago

Amen.

casaotomi.bsky.social•58 days ago

My go to graphic for this.
Sigh

nachoyourbizness.bsky.social•58 days ago

This is why I'm supporting people like Scott Dworkin, Marc Elias, Seth Abramson.
&
Rolling Stone
The Guardian
ProPublica
Mother Jones...

teebo63.bsky.social•58 days ago

More than failing they are adding to the misinformation. Just. Report. The. News. I don’t need their opinion.

saskiago4.bsky.social•58 days ago

And stop repeating whatever Trump says and acting like it's news instead of nonsense. The stenography from our formerly revered news organizations is infuriating.

Trump Sees the U.S. as a ‘Disaster.’ The Numbers Tell a Different Story. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/05/us/politics/trump-us-disaster-numbers.html?smid=nytcore-android-share

raulszighelboim.bsky.social•58 days ago

“Trump sees the US as a Disaster. %Reality% tells a different story.”

Even when right, the NYT is wrong.

susanmcgraw88.bsky.social•57 days ago

Look at his serpent eyes...they never make you feel as though he has good intentions...they are the eyes of an EVIL individual. Plotting, planning, conniving...until he is stopped. Right always wins in the end...when you have no scruples you're bound to fail.

No doubt, a lot of history has been diluted by gaslighting peeps 🐥 Soon they will forget the lies they’ve told and will have to make up another & another & another….

debbie156.bsky.social•57 days ago

Trump lies over & over.

ta1943.bsky.social•58 days ago

But that’s not what he wants his MAGS think (term used loosely)😒 He’s going to save them from all of the horrible Dem deeds😡

evilfranchise.bsky.social•57 days ago

Everything is 20% more costly under #SenileJoe.

sharkloverchick.bsky.social•57 days ago

It’s disgusting that tax cuts are more important the NYT than conducting fair and accurate journalism. Apparently they’re even more to them than his threats to weaponize the DOJ against journalists. The NYT is a lost cause along with all the rest of the corporate media.

kipwilliams.bsky.social•56 days ago

They can double their Brave Contrarian article count now, since it won't much matter for a while.

I'd subscribe to just that part of the NYT. A real timesaver.

rhonnie-72.bsky.social•44 days ago

Only idiot voters are unconvinced.

tatianar312.bsky.social•57 days ago

I refuse to view anything from the NYT, but I suppose it's safe for them to report accurate information now that their guy will be assuming office this month.

loryd.bsky.social•57 days ago

Infuriating

casualverse.bsky.social•57 days ago

Anything not involving trump crusty cheetoh ass is bad.

mkn68.bsky.social•57 days ago

We have been abandoned by media, many of the courts, SCOTUS, and every Republican, along with a few Dems too. This is a major part of why the left feels so bereft and impotent

newpath.bsky.social•58 days ago

No, Trump does not see the economy as a disaster he lies that it is. And NYT will not make that distinction.

christinan.bsky.social•58 days ago

"Better late than never" definitely does not apply in this situation 😐

zimjay.bsky.social•57 days ago

Sorry you expected better.
