How many modern day “conservatives” would read the NYT? They started leaving Fox News when they called the election fairly and their journalists started saying that claims of “election fraud” were unfounded. Heck they started calling RedState a sellout until RedState kicked out the NeverTrumpers even people with conservative bona fides.

I’m sure the left would turn against NYT if they started publishing about the silliness of mask mandates in 2022.



I hear many conservatives cite the NY Times conservative op-ed writers. Also, I saw an article, maybe in the Atlantic, a few years ago where they asked various leaders what they read. All the conservatives read the NYT.


I bet they were all traditional Bush/Romney/McCain conservatives and not Trump/MAGA “conservatives” who have overtaken the Republican Party.
