Has the New York Times finally gone too far?
This is really … just awful.

There are plenty of images NYT could have used for this headline that didn’t involve Stephen Miller’s head on a spike. This is just in seriously bad taste, imagine if Breitbart or another more conservative outlet had posted an image of say Valerie Jarrett’s head on a spike.
Awful.
I'm taking a screenshot of this before someone at @nytimes with some sense and decency takes it down. Unreal. pic.twitter.com/Y8ObYETmgD

We also took a screencap of the tweet should NYT figure out this was inappropriate to post, but odds are they won’t because well … it’s the media. And these days they’re not exactly known for common sense.
@Coondawg68 @nytimes is that real!?

We checked more than five times before we could actually believe it was real ourselves.
@nytimes What the ever loving heck is wrong with you people? A spike? Really?

Psychos.
Just what are you trying to say here, @nytimes? https://t.co/DX8tRBR0TR

There are plenty of implications around the image and none of them are pleasant.
Apparently, ISIS has taken control of the New York Times. https://t.co/7KO8aBw682

@nytimes I think that guy is a clown, but that picture seems inappropriate for NYT to be tweeting out.

Fair point. Even if you’re not a fan of Miller, you should be able to recognize that this is just not ok.

Ha!
@Coondawg68 @nytimes that is crazy. Are there any limits to their insanity?

The answer is no, there are sadly no limits to their insanity and this garbage proves it.
