The New York Times has made far less money off their leftist newspaper the New York Times, the paper responsible for leaking national security secrets on an almost daily basis. The NYT president claims the fall is because "Our third-quarter results reflect the continued weakness in the print advertising marketplace."
Maybe, just MAYBE it's because people are sick and tired of reading a newspaper that lambasts president Bush on a daily basis. Maybe it's because people are sick and tired of reading a newspaper that digs into our national security secrets, and then reveals them to terrorists and everyone else. Maybe people are sick of reading the articles that display an openly liberal bias every single day.
Maybe people are getting their news from other sources, New-media like the Blogs or Talk Radio. I'm not surprised the NYT profit dropped - in fact, I'm surprised it didn't drop more. The NYT is, at this point, worthless for giving what it's supposed to - the news. If you're a nutso leftist, looking to find "experts" to qualify your wacko assumptions, the NYT is your paper. If, like most people, you're a self-respecting American, who trusts in the greatness of our nation and wants to see us make the world a safer place, then you probably won't like the NYT.
Though I have to say the NYT isn't ALL bad.
The crosswords are pretty decent.
