The American Thinker: The New York Times Against the Jews
This is a serious accusation, but I've been appalled by the Times's defense of anti-Semites. Worse still, the rise of anti-semitism all over the world has come into being along a similar rise of pro-Islam apologetics. There are a lot of people going down this dirty road. As for the rest, I'll let Ed Lasky make the case: The New York Times and the Jews
The New York Times narcissistically regards itself as the patron saint of minorities. The paper shifts into attack mode whenever it sees the slightest and most ephemeral whiff of prejudice against blacks, women, or immigrants - especially Muslims. Private golf clubs, college sports teams, corporations, the Patriot Act, all have been tarred by the Times in their quest to abolish prejudice.Yet the New York Times seems to take the opposite approach when dealing with one particular minority: Jews. The Times' method of dealing with anti-Semitism ranges across a very narrow and disheartening spectrum: indifference, whitewashing, defense and promotion of its practitioners, and finally, and most repugnantly, the paper itself seems to occasionally engage in anti-Semitism.

What else is new.
If, which I doubt, Islamists turn the U.S. into the Caliphate of America. It will be the journalists of the New York Times that will be marched to their death.

Or if ann coulter gets her way and the next wingnut terrorist hits there rather than at a federal building.
