Any Outlet focused on making money over anything else. Is definitionally untrustworthy. That doesn't mean they cannot publish decent things from time to time. It just means that you cannot trust what they publish to always be correct

Eh, you can trust them to always follow the money though.

"From time to time" is an extremely disingenuous assessment of the NYT's record for fact-checking and investigating. But yes, it cannot always be correct; you do need to be mindful if you ever start reading any source entirely uncritically.

That was less a particular assessment of the times, and more a generalization. But I agree.
