    The “great” part about how absolute shit NYT is, is how after the “great media consolidation” ~15 years ago when most of the major outlets were bought by billionaires the first thing they did was cut their investigation and research departments in favor of “copying” the NYT stories…

    They don’t care about quality, or content, they’re the typical business school jackass type that thinks “ThE BrAnD mEAnS eVeRyThInG!” As in: you’ll eat whatever I serve and you’ll keep doing it because of the name I bought.

    Same shit is happening with so called “AAA” game developers (Bethesda… Among others) except this isn’t fucking clothing. Gucci sells because people want the name. The Washington Post can go fuck themselves, no one but Bezos cares about the name.
