New York Post is a tabloid. Please don't cite them to support arguments about journalistic integrity.

NY Post is notoriously a sensational outlet with a loose relationship with truth. I don't think it should be posted on any serious news aggregator.

I do not have a NYTimes subscription, please consider not posting from this website.

My case it was CNN, not the New York Times, but I guess the lesson is to avoid sites that do this often if you want to be taken reliably here.

Posting NYT article isn't credible ... anymore.

The NY Post is trying to generate controversy and sell papers, not perform real journalism or prevent catastrophes.

New York Post is really not a suitable source for this site, is it?

bigphishy | karma 153 | avg karma 0.82 · | 2021-01-21 19:44:02+00:00

Wow, I don't mean to issue an ad-hominem attack... but I do not consider anything from NY Post legitimate, I'd even venture to say NY Post is a tabloid owned by News Corporation, and surprised that this is on HackerNews.

Wouldn't it be easy for you to post an example of the article being wrong, then? Otherwise it looks like you have a personal agenda against the new york times.

malvosenior | karma 4408 | avg karma 2.13 · | 2018-08-08 20:31:13+00:00

This is directly related to the article. The NYT is literally doing a 180 of what they were saying two days ago.

Also, you're not a mod so I don't see why you're trolling through a day old post to finger wag at people who don't agree with your politics.

Please avoid linking to the NYT. It's annoying and a hollow shell of its former self.

Interesting that a site published a copycat article of something that the New Yorker ran ten days earlier.

Something tells me that external media focus on the moderation of this site is going to be something we're all going to wind up regretting.

Is all of this coverage organic, or did someone hire a PR firm?

(none of the above is meant to imply that the mods here are not doing a good job.)

NYPost is a Murdoch-owned tabloid that should not be considered a reliable source for anything.

naturalethic | karma 7 | avg karma 0.04 · | 2014-09-02 15:12:08+00:00

Not the New York Times, so stop posting it.

egrwjlkjwrkl | karma 1 | avg karma 0.5 · | 2021-03-13 18:24:07+00:00

nytimes links should be banned - it is all liberal bullshit

mrintegrity | karma 446 | avg karma 4.69 · | 2023-12-28 15:54:32

Is there a better source for this? Nypost is one of the worst scandal generating clickbait sites out there

boneheadmed | karma 141 | avg karma 0.97 · | 2016-11-20 20:40:38

NYT = fake_news(newspaper)

Would you please stop posting complaints about the NYT? You've done it repeatedly. It has become tedious.
