NYeT! Carlos Slim Edition

clipped from pajamasmedia.com SLATE: The Story The New York Times Won’t Touch. A little more than a year ago, when the Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim increased his stake in the New York Times Company (NYT), I wrote “I pity the Times Mexico bureau chief who has to tiptoe through who is and isn’t out of favor with the paper’s new sugar daddy.” Now we have a very clear example of how the Times treats Slim within its pages; it’s not pretty, and the journalistic compromise can be seen well beyond Mexico. All the news that fits our sponsors’ needs.
