New York Times



The New York Times (a.k.a The Gray Lady, or the NYT) is a newspaper that represents the highest standard of journalism today. The paper has been given one hundred eight Pulitzer Prizes, more than any other newspaper.

The NYT has a Liberal Bias. The last Republican in a presidential race the editor endorsed was Dwight D. Eisenhower. The paper also supports the LGBT rights movement, the Affordable Care Act, gun control, and a woman's right to determine her own health care.

Investigative Reporting
The paper's investigative reporting led to the end of the power of the corrupt Tammany Hall. The paper has also investigated New Jersey halfway houses, WalMart , and toxins in Chinese products; the third one won them a Pulitzer Prize.

Donald Trump
Donald Trump apparently wishes to purchase the New York Times from the Sulzburger family. This scenario is highly unlikely. The family has taken action to prevent random people from having to much control over it just by owning a ton of stock. In addition, Arthur Ochs Sulzburger, the papers publisher, actually laughed when a reporter mentioned it to him.
