Clara Jeffery /

Peter Sterne /
@petersterne: Semafor's @maxwelltani reports on an internal NYT meeting, in which the paper's leaders dismiss liberal criticism, double down on the “Screams Without Words” article and argue that younger journalists lack appreciation for independent journalism. https://www.semafor.com/...

Jamesetta Williams /
@jalexa1218: Great reporting by @maxwelltani but difficutl to read. In fact, most of the criticism from the left is actually good faith commentary by smart readers. Coverage of Biden vs Trump's age is the perfect ex of undeniable double standards. It's frustrating that Kahn refuses to see it.

Josh Schwerin /
