They can't report the news, and they can't get technology right.
As most people have come to recognize, The New York Times is nothing more than a mouthpiece for the Left. Oh, they claim to be "journalists", but they've become obvious shills. They've been losing print readership in droves (though The Oregonian has them beat in that department), so they decided to implement a pay-wall: if you want to read their drivel, you have to "subscribe". And a lot of Leftists probably will. Self-righteously, of course. It's what they do.
The "pay wall" hasn't even gone live yet in the USA, though it's been tested in Canada - and predictably,failed. Four lines of CSS/Java shuts it down. The Times is fighting back. It won't work.
