Is anyone surprised the NYTs seeked approval from progressives for a headline before printing it???


“NYT Changes Headline On Gov’t Shutdown To Lessen Blame On Dems For Impasse”

1:05 PM 01/20/2018, Chris White

The New York Times changed a headline in an article Saturday morning about the government shutdown that absolves Democrats of blame for the impasse.

The original version of the NYT headline on an article reporting the news reads: “Senate Democrats Block Bill to Keep Government Open Past Midnight, Shutdown Looms.”

The story went through various changes as negotiations on the budget deal broke down.

But a final version of the headline was published at 12:01 am and appears to dramatically downplay Democrats’ responsibility in the matter, according to an analysis The Daily Caller News Foundation conducted using NewsDiffs, a website that tracks changes made to high-performing articles.

The final version of the headline states: “Government Shuts Down as Bill to Extend Funding Is Blocked.” TheNYT altered the original article substantially as well. Editors nixed a sentence, for instance, noting that, “Senate Democrats blocked passage of a stopgap spending bill to keep the government open.”

Actually.......NO, you’re wrong.

However, that was not the point of the post....the point was the alleged free press cleared their headline with a political party!

If Democrats v**ed against it, and Republicans v**ed against it, how is that not bipartisan?

3 or 4 people do not speak for the entire “team” in any case. Now, I was surprised the Dems didn’t finangle it so it was the GOP non-v**ers that caused the shutdown.......THAT was a blow by team Chuck. If they had, it would have been accurate to say the GOP caused it as part of a bipartisan effort.

Big fcuk up by Chuck.
