Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley): Imperial propaganda outlet The New York Times is currently embroiled in a massive scandal over its reporting which alleges mass rapes on October 7 — and the scandal is being fueled in part by leaks from its own staff.
I can still picture myself reading the print Times as I rode the subway to high school at 16. Ludicrously, I was reasonably confident in the veracity of what I was reading. These days, I'm stunned if anything I see there connected with US foreign policy isn't already — or doesn't rapidly turn out to be — total rubbish. I have friends who still buy that printed version. And they don't even have a bird cage or a litter box to line, so I wonder what the hell they use it for.
The Empire of Lies is slowly but surely pivoting towards a 'Global War on Terror v2.0' footing so that the American people can be brainwashed to endorse War in West Asia once more. The problem is that the Empire's military cannot fight. Neither the Will, Readiness, nor Ability exists to prosecute such a Conflict... & there are too many other conflicts worldwide presently. 'Death by being overwhelmed by several crises' appears to be the manner of Death the Empire has chosen!

At the risk of earning “wet blanket status”— I agree 💯 that these leaks are important, but we are dealing with true psychopaths. Ivy League schools that allowed anti-Genocide protests on their campuses had their presidents publicly spanked in a televised kangaroo court by AIPAC-controlled congressmen. Then these presidents were removed from office and immediately replaced by rabid Zionists.
Given enough time, staff writers will either bow to pressure or be replaced by more Zio-friendly puppets. In fact, if and when AI is pready”, they'll only need a few ZioStaff writers to program the Israeli-apologist AI spewage!
I remain cautiously optimistic because these leaks by newly awakened staff are unprecedented. However, a cornered rat is still DANGEROUS. Zionists did not spend decades infiltrating our institutions only to walk away when their lies became exposed!
Israel is slaughtering babies and opening fire on starving people queued at flour trucks. Their soldiers are posting “revenge videos” that would make a Gestapo agent look away. These lunatics are not going to allow a few whistle blowers to spoil their fun. As I write this, rabid Zionists are interrogating employees at the NYT in an attempt to identify and punish the leakers. The few Muslims who work there are receiving “special attention“. The leaks are very encouraging and have wounded the enemy, but this WAR ain't over yet folks - not by a long shot!
Why is this shocking? The NYT is a ZioNazi mouthpiece, and the century-long publication by the Sulzberger family, obviously ZioNazis too, has inevitably ingrained the corporate culture at the rag paper of record.
We at NYT the paper of record have a long and proud record of printing all of the news that is fit to print..Now we are facing glaring accusations that because our top staff are Zionists we are biased against the Palestinians. This is blatant anti semitism and we report the struggles of the people of Israel as we see them and we report the terrorism of the Palestinians.It is true that our brave soldiers have had to kill some terrorists in Gaza and that few innocent civilians have sadly become collateral damage .When we can report that the brave and fearless IDF have finally cleared the Gazan scum out and located the rest to the wondrous empty spaces of Egypt we will resume our practice of fearless biased reporting .
Those people at the NYT must have not seen anything fishy going on at their establishment before this particular story. If they had and took action then, maybe this type of reporting would not become the rag's staple.
The New York Times is not alone in this. If you have been a regular reader or observer of any of this global cartel of mainstream propaganda outlets (
https://thetrustproject.org/. ) then over the years you will have seen a steady stream of real journalists replaced by government stenographers or outright propagandists.
John Pilger, in his later years, also noted the Guardian for example had thoroughly cleaned out real journalists from its newsroom and replaced them with court jesters.
This is a big scandal in the NYC but it’s going on everywhere, That’s why you cant read anything but garbage in all these media that are part of the dystopianly misnamed “Trust Project”.
@18:30, Max Blumenthal states that he was instrumental in breaking the story. I don't know, but considering he's a Jew, I think it important that he be given credit for (at least helping to) expose the story.
Just as the NYT intentionally chose a reporter with no qualifications other than the assurance that this reporter would produce the stories that the NYT wants printed, People Of Influence And Authority will have no problem finding willing servants.
For if the Establishment is good at nothing else, it is very good at determining whom to co-opt, whom to buy off, whom to neutralize, whom to ignore.
“Never ask a man his salary, a woman her age and Israel for evidence.”

Why is the rag The Intercept getting all the credit for de-bunking this story?
I’m pretty sure a lot of the credit should go to Max Blumenthal & Aaron Maté!

Nice to see the NYT hoisted with its own petard. A casualty of its own propaganda. Will heads roll?
Don't Uncork the Champagne Yet!

Well, they are working hard to replace people as quickly as possible. AI flown drones and ChatGPT journalists don’t have pesky moral qualms.

Fantastic article Caitlin Johnstone! Thank you so much for voicing and putting into words the thoughts and sentiments of so many of us.
Thank You!!

I don't claim to know "the truth". Blumenthal and Mate are excellent reporters and "They Greyzone" a useful web-site.
Just as the NYT intentionally chose a reporter with no qualifications other than the assurance that this reporter would produce the stories that the NYT wants printed, People Of Influence And Authority will have no problem finding willing servants.

Refer to it as Zaka-NYT.
Problem solved.
