Max Blumenthal: Hell of a ‘Times’
Southern Poverty Law Center Intelligence Project executive director Mark Potok credits the Times with helping to fuel the nativism that has taken hold this year in Republican political campaigns. “The Times is a terrible little newspaper that unfortunately has vastly disproportionate influence on the right wing of the Republican Party,” Potok said. “The vast majority of people who read it don’t realize that this paper is in bed with bigots and white supremacists. The Times is a key part of the radical right’s apparatus in the United States.”
