The New York Times this week featured a profile of conservative and Twitchy favorite Ben Shapiro:
Ben Shapiro is a hero to millennial conservatives looking for an alternative to Trump and Trumpism https://t.co/XaXv9eXbXE

Very good profile of @benshapiro https://t.co/6EWUFnegkh

Why is the word "provocative", like the word "angry" largely used to describe conservatives? Are there no angry provocative liberals? I find @benshapiro to be astute and witty. https://t.co/MFi07SPQbs

Good NYT profile of @benshapiro, a v impt conservative voice, challenging the left in the right way – with logic & arguments. https://t.co/x9qSfvjXhA

Former Media Matters staffer Eric Boehlert was among the unamused on the Left:
NYT writes puff piece on a former Breitbart bottom feeder. number of critics, liberals, Dems quoted in piece: zero https://t.co/4mWyiCDU0L

Actress Debra Messing has seen enough:
And why I cancelled my subscription to @nytimes https://t.co/gRsnwM9T0w

Messing wasn’t alone in her reaction to exposure to differing opinions:
Same here! Total waste of my time, money, and an assault on my sense of common decency and reason.

Ditto.

Maybe the NY Times could get back in Messing’s good graces by comparing the NRA to murderous terrorist organizations.
