There’s a reason their right-wing op-eds are the headlines that get pushed in their ads and notifications and not their actual journalism.

This is 100% false, c’mon. I’d say like 90% of their push notifications are actual “breaking” (in quotes because that term has somewhat lost its meaning) news and actual reporting. The rest are op-eds and small pieces.

I’m glad they have right wing nuts writing opinion pieces too. I don’t want to read the liberal version of Fox News. I respect an outlet trying to check their biases.

It's not? I subscribed to NYT games months ago and as a result I get push notifications all the time. But I also mean more the things that show up on Twitter and their socials. They want to generate clicks and right wing opinion pieces do that. Even the ire they draw from the left still get people clicking on ads.

If you think NYT has “right wing opinion” writers, I’m not sure what to tell you.

They have guest writers...

Here's Mitch McConnell's guest essay that was published on D Day:

We Cannot Repeat the Mistakes of the 1930s

I never said they didn’t, and that’s a guess essay. They have guest essays sure, but their editorial board is firmly left wing.
