William Lindsey :toad:<p>&quot;Much of Big Journalism, for example, turned their noses up at insider documents offered to them about JD Vance during last year’s presidential campaign, in part because the source was Iranian hackers; in some cases, they wrote about the hack but not the documents.</p><p>The Mamdani story, however, fell far short of the newsworthiness bar.&quot;</p><p><a href="https://toad.social/tags/ZohranMamdani" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ZohranMamdani</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/NewYorkTimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NewYorkTimes</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/JordanLasker" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>JordanLasker</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/WhiteSupremacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhiteSupremacy</span></a><br />/7</p>

William Lindsey :toad:<p>&quot;[The Zohran Mamdani story] came to the Times due to a widespread hack into Columbia’s databases, transmitted to the paper through an intermediary who was given anonymity by the paper. That source turns out to be Jordan Lasker, who – as the Guardian has reported – is a well-known and much criticized &#39;&#39;eugenicist&#39;, AKA white supremacist.&quot;</p><p>~ Margaret Sullivan </p><p><a href="https://toad.social/tags/ZohranMamdani" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ZohranMamdani</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/NewYorkTimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NewYorkTimes</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/JordanLasker" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>JordanLasker</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/WhiteSupremacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhiteSupremacy</span></a><br />/5</p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/jul/07/is-the-new-york-times-trying-to-wreck-zohran-mamdanis-mayoral-bid" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/commentisfree/</span><span class="invisible">2025/jul/07/is-the-new-york-times-trying-to-wreck-zohran-mamdanis-mayoral-bid</span></a></p>
