“Everyone understands how bad the world would be without journalists because we haven’t had any for decades.”
—Fox News court jester Greg Gutfeld, justly mocking the whines of the Washington Post’s ridiculous Taylor Lorenz about the lay-offs in her profession, if it can be called that any more.
The rest of his rant is amusing and well-deserved, but that single sentence is enough to accurately describe the failure of Lorenz’s colleagues and peers, and the total lack of self-awareness displayed by this inexplicably employed hack, who, in a typical outburst last month, proclaimed that “Anyone who’s worked as a journalist at the [New York Times] knows that journalists there are absolutely allowed to loudly espouse political opinions, you just have to espouse the *right* political opinions. Right wing opinions are fine, left wing opinions are not.”
Ethics Alarms 
Might have flipped that last bit about “…right wing opinons are fine, left wing opinions are not.” But maybe NYT is super conservative?
Apparently. Th Washington Post employs a culture reporter who is delusional, or lies routinely. She’s the epidtome of teh situation Gutfeld was taking about.
Yikes… In what universe does an worker in an industry with a lead balloon demand curve think that it is an opportune time to go on strike?
Clearly it is an industry that accurately observes, documents, and disseminates the operations of a society!
“Right wing opinions are fine, left wing opinions are not.”
Sheesh
I had to double check that it was actually Taylor Lorenz who wrote that.
Well, I guess it was in between sobbing about being attacked by mean online trolls for having doxed someone’s identity in her paper. Boo hoo.
This woman really lives in a delusional world of her own. I cannot imagine there are too many people who would write such a thing about the NYT.
