As Twitchy reported, the New York Times originally wrote a headline for Tuesday’s front page that read, ‘Trump Urges Unity vs. Racism.’ Because you know, that’s what he actually did and that would be reporting the news BUUUUUUT our delicate, good-natured, unbiased friends on the Left just couldn’t deal with it …
They threw a fit.
An embarrassing one, even for them.
And NYT caved.
Have we mentioned how damn dumb everything is lately? Because if we haven’t … it really is dumb.

We’d like to say this is unreal but sadly … it’s just not.

And Lord KNOWS they don’t want to upset the shriekiest of the shrieky.
Here’s a tremendous example of why the public doesn’t trust the media.@nytimes Print Editor put out their 1st edition featuring a truthful headline > Democrats complain as it isn’t cohesive to their narrative > NYTimes buckles and frames it negatively for 2nd edition. pic.twitter.com/sUrBJ1wSam

Tremendous and not in a good way.
‘Assailing Hate But Not Guns’.
So ridiculous. Nutless, ridiculous, cowards.
So the left bullied the @nytimes into changing a headline they politically didn’t like, but they’re worried about Trump threatening press freedom by calling Jim Acosta names. K.

Welp, at least the New York Times has officially admitted they are not an actual news outlet.
Hey, we’ve known for a while now but with their actions around this headline, at least they aren’t pretending anymore.
