I am usin...Bullying? What are you a five year old?<br />I am using Daniel's own words to justify his always siding with the people that are ideologically aligned with the government he detests. That simple.<br />Even in his criticism of the New York Times in this post he softens the critique by saying "I am sorry, but the NYT is totally missing the boat, is not getting the moment."<br />Missing the boat??? Pinch Sulzberger the publisher of TNYT, Jill Abramson the Executive Editor and all the way down the line are ideological anti american leftists that do not miss the boat EVER. Every word they write is calibrated to do the most damage to their opposition or to prop up their socialist/communist anti american fellow travelers. Do you think they don't know UNASUR is a leftist tool, just like the UN is? This is the newspaper that supported Stalin; whose correspondent in Moscow in the 40s Walter Duranty was deliberately sending erroneous reports on the Ukraine famine and starvation to preserve the image of the communist ideology. Do you think they would lift a finger to help the opposition of a leftist anti american regime, not in a million years. Misinformed my foot! The New York Times is the most despicable of the "culturally superior" newspapers.Roberto Carlosnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-69183496745624475122014-03-21T02:39:42.566+01:002014-03-21T02:39:42.566+01:00ROBERTO...your comment was stupid, mean spirited a...ROBERTO...your comment was stupid, mean spirited and unnecessary. criticize Daniel for his choice of papers, but leave his personal life alone. bullying in any form is reprehensible. mad mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-19740382934601012892014-03-21T01:38:32.451+01:002014-03-21T01:38:32.451+01:00But Milonga you left out that The New York Times i...But Milonga you left out that The New York Times is all in (no pun intended) for gay rights.

And people are really intimidated of saying the D word (dictatorship) referring to Maduro since your government labels itself left-wing and graciously donates some gas for winter use in NYC via the Kennedys and so on. Should they be called fascist for using such word. It´s the world upside down "el mundo al revés". Or maybe even your government pays to write such editorials, one never knows nowadays.

I remember reading Simon Romero's "balanced" accounts of yesteryear, but to think that in 2014 some of our worst fears back then are now becoming reality ie due process - thrown out the window and upcoming food rationing cards to name a couple.<br /><br />In any event, I ask myself the same question you posed earlier "Does the NYT editorial board read other newspapers?" or is it perhaps that the Ukraine crisis simply overshadows ours, maybe it's the missing Malaysia Air jet liner Flight 370 dominating headlines.<br /><br />Fellow reader feel free to reach out to the editorial board and enlighten them by contacting them at:<br /><br />http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/opinion/editorialboard.html?action=click&contentCollection=Opinion&module=Byline&region=Header&pgtype=article<br /><br />I would start with Madame Terry Tang, Deputy Editorial Page Editor, before Prof. Amy Chua gets to her. Lastly, if any of you have oversight over any print media advertising, do as Daniel suggests and put your money on the better bet, The Washington Post. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
