Former New York Times Writer Says Paper ‘Living In Fear Of Online Mob’

Former New York Times opinion editor Bari Weiss says America’s “paper of record” is making editorial decisions that alienate “half of the country” because it fears being canceled by an irate mob.

Weiss, who resigned in July after former Editorial Page editor James Bennet was fired amid criticism for running an op-ed by Republican Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), said Twitter has become the paper’s “ultimate editor.”
