“I all alone beweep my outcast state blame the NYTimes for my fuck-up…”

Laura Ingraham Salutes Hair Furer Donald Trump

Yup, Il Douche strikes again:

President Trump, the subject of protests and lawsuits over his new ban on refugees from seven Middle East countries, took to social media on Sunday to defend his policy as a counter-terrorism measure (and attack The New York Times).

But my favorite part is:

The new president has also criticized news coverage of his administration — particularly The New York Times, recipient of a critical Trump tweet for two days running.

“Somebody with aptitude and conviction should buy the FAKE NEWS and failing @nytimes and either run it correctly or let it fold with dignity!” Trump tweeted.

In a response to a Trump attack Saturday, the Times issued a “fact check” saying that “subscribers & audience at all-time highs. Supporting independent journalism matters.”

While the Times is right (supporting indie journalism does matter), I’ve never thought of the NYTimes as indie anything.
