This is what liberal activism and real privilege look like, writes ZacharyFaria. This is how leftist activism destroys journalism from the inside.
Politico’s deep dive into the tensions between the Times and its billionaire owner lays it all bare. It opens by recounting how a reporter wrote a fairly basic crime write-up after criminals stole two luxury watches worth $19,000. Left-wing activists piled on the reporter, Jeong Park, calling the story a “press release” for law enforcement.
Politico further details the intrusions by Soon-Shiong, an uber-privileged Stanford graduate who served as an intern on the paper’s photo team before her billionaire father bought the paper. In 2020, in staff meetings, she “suggested the paper avoid using the word ‘looting’” when covering ... well, you know, looting. She felt the Times should not use the word when covering riots and looting related to race and added that the Times “could become more inclusive in hiring.
Soon-Shiong has been steeped in privilege for her entire life and has little to worry about when it comes to crime, which harms lower-income black and Hispanic people most. And her privileged liberalism has, sadly, seeped into the Times’s content, bringing with it mold and rot. The paper has since conveniently begun to endorse Soon-Shiong’s favored candidates for office.
