“That’s because The New York Times has become, for all intents and purposes, an unregistered lobbying firm for far-left politicians.” Musk replied.
A bombshell report Saturday afternoon documenting Twitter censorship by The Post and Democratic pressure to cover Hunter Biden’s laptop ahead of the 2020 presidential election was absent from the Times website, as well as from the website of its main competitor, the Washington Post.
