Maybe the New York Times should end. Sucks anymore and can’t be trusted anyway.

WTF is wrong with you people

nyt: Fascism is Good Actually

Every single person I’ve ever met named ‘Wesley’ has been a little bitch. Adds up.

This is an attempt at satire, right?

I'm thinking the recent failures of the WP and NYT mean they should end, too.

@nytpitchbot.bsky.social sure you've seen but just in case. i know you've got a backlog but this is a doosey.

Demise you say? How did it end???? Should SNL end the same way? You know, curry favor to baby skinned autocrats who can't take a joke? Is that what writers and critics think about all day? Voltaire would be proud. GFTO @nytimes.com

just get rid of Morris

Feckless clickbait. Nice try TMZ Times.

How the fuck do you manage passive language here too? Are you people insane?!

Post your favourite SNL sketches here

Giving tongue to a gay dude didn't save his job.

our columnist "what if more state media" sounds great bro

In times like these, write an article pretending Colbert was cancelled for any reason other than Trump, and advocate for shutting ANY comedic show, is like signing a certificate for ASSHOLE. Geez.

Wtaf is wrong with you?

Maybe Trump should punish the NY Times out of business. That would be hilarious! 😂

It's like you guys have a competition over who can write the shittiest, most ass-kissing-to-oligarchs, contrived tripe. The NYT is on the National Enquirer tier now. Lower actually, since the Enquirer doesn't try to put on airs like you quisling shitbags.

Another day, another deluge of the dumbest hot-take pseudointellectual slop NYT can manufacture... #BOYCOTTNYT

Well your critic is fucking moron.

Get absolutely fucked. Your puzzles ain't worth your bullshit articles. You dimwitted fucks are a week out from: "Spaghetti strap tank tops: were they actually the cause of rape?" Gain some fucking integrity. Or shame. Fuck you.

can you think of any other media once regarded as a cultural institution that might’ve overstayed its welcome and maybe we’d be better off without, the New York Times

Yeah, just stop airing people who don't lick Trump's boots 24/7, everything will be great 😒

Hey New York Times, speaking of long-running franchises that need to end soon…

i struggle to see how the people who push this shit are human beings. you're irredeemable

Uh...

what an odd thing to say

What the fuck is this bullshit?

Seriously??? WTF???

Why do I follow the pitchbot when the real headlines are funnier

👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾

Maybe… just hear me out… maybe it’s time to end the @nytimes.com as they consistently drop the fucken ball

The New York Times is such a rag.

After 174 years the New York Times should look at winding down operations. No longer concerned with the truth, or informing the populace about important issues, the Gray Lady has run its course.

What the fuck is this dumb shit

I won't be sad when the NYT is shuttered for displeasing the führer.

What the fuck is wrong with you people.

Is Wesley the name of your AI? Cuz I'm not sure how a human could write this, what with their vision being obscured by Trump's soggy, pockmarked taint.

Yeah, and the NHL would have to cancel its entire existence, which I think is a bit more drastic than just the broadcast 😊

If my team is already eliminated then yes

What the fuck are you guys even talking about??

Embarrassing that you would post this, honestly.

NYT is diet fascism

Honestly I think it's time your dipshit publication bit the dust

And the bad takes never stop coming. NYT the call is coming from inside the house—the joke *is* you.

The same whiny MAGA cult that brought you terms like snowflake and cancel culture were so upset by the intelligent satire & humor of Stephen Colbert that they bought a network and silenced a true First Amendment rights artist to please the uber sensitive Mango Mussolini youtube.com/watch?v=yTe5...

Why is this even a question?

Late night has been doing more hard hitting news content, and with more integrity, than NYT has in decades. bsky.app/profile/smoo...

I believe that the quality of SNL is the same as it always was. I think people have a nostalgy bias. Let's say there was 10 good sketches by season. That's 510 compare to 10. Obliviously, people will think that it was better before.

Is this a bit

I feel sorry for whoever runs your social media. They must cringe with embarrassment.

man, you guys are weird

With local newspapers shuttering, maybe it’s time for a major newspaper to follow suit?

I thought this was the pitchbot account, but it’s the real NYT. What a dumb headline and article. Maybe people should stop laughing altogether?

No. Dumbass Dump-ass kissers. We needed Colbert. We need SNL. Jost's Hegseth alone is worth it. They've been more pointed in their jabs this season.

I’ve lost all faith in the NYT after subscribing for years

Well I know a newspaper that's way past it's prime too

Some newspaper met its demise this week. Maybe it’s time for the New York Times to go too. By Wesley Morris.

What a stupid take.

Fuck off

I’d be ok with no more NYT

Is Jeff Bezos destroying the wrong paper/journal/outlet?

Every goddamn day you fools publish something that pushes me more to cancel the subscription. I swear to god if I wasn’t a journalism major 20 years ago who dreamed of being a reporter, that trigger woulda been pulled years ago.

The New York Times has been around for 174 years. Just saying.

Who writes this garbage?

I really wish you bastards would just disappear.

Sweet child

Perhaps everyone at the nyt should simply eat a huge pile of shit

Would you please fuck off

Why not cancel every show that criticizes trump? Seriously, why not? Your paper is fascist swill.

JFC with the @nytimes.com

Hey, real quick: what the fuck are you talking about?

Are you all brain dead?

JFC

You guys suck so damn much

Just when i thought you guys couldn’t find a dumber fucking take you completely reach hell and dig through the sub basement @nytpitchbot.bsky.social

Y'all are a bunch of Nazi loving idiots.

Wesley Morris is a fucking idiot.

Just say the cancellation was politically motivated and wrong.

"our board of censors says the topic you want to hear about is touchy at the new kremlin, sooo how about SNL, sure sucks don't it?"

Why? SNL is hilarious

What the fucking hell is wrong with you people

Fuck you

Yall managed to "When did you stop beating your wife?" the government bullying networks to cancel speech.

Absolutely breathtaking to end up on this as your takeaway and not the obvious and relevant one

I just watched the full ~55 minutes. I'm impressed by how much Morris and Zinoman have analyzed comedy sketch shows. I'm a bit surprised that in their historical dig they failed to reference "Fridays" or "MAD TV" (e.g., the former gave us Larry David and Michael Richards; the latter Alex Borstein)

gfy

Why would you even write this?

Are 51 Year Olds Too Old To Find Things Funny Anymore? Our Wesley Morris takes a deep dive into his Netflix queue to find out. New York Times, plumbing depths again, I see.....

You’ll give anyone a platform these days. Sad.

Please take this as seriously as I mean it - what the fuck is wrong with you?

The cancellation of comedy programs is a sign that society is going to have a lot of crying to do soon.

Why does the NYT still exist? You aren't a real newspaper.

Sloppy excuses for the Trump Administration's interference with the free press will not get him to stop calling the Times fake news. Have a modicum of self-respect, please.

So, Wesley? You're making the argument that SNL should be forced off the air to serve a political end, as well? Because given Larry Ellison's well known involvement with CBS, this is the only way such a statement could be interpreted.....

You would think a Grantland alumn would be more aware

Is Wesley Morris living under a rock? Does your critic really think Colbert's cancellation was a business-driven one and not based on literally everything else going on with CBS for the past year?

That’s a dumb take on the end of a comedy show under a fascist regime in the UNITED STATES of AMERICA.

So comedy is illegal?

The transphobic NYT with a bad take? Lol classic

This is so idiotic that I’m not going to waste my time watching the video - bullshit clickbait half assed crap

No one cares what Weasle thinks. SNL is forever. GTFO.

What a dork-ass premise for an article. Really sad for you guys.

🖕

What a bunch of stupid kunts. How about we cancel NYT instead?

My 10 year old dog was just killed by the president. Therefore, your 12 year old cat should have to be killed as well

I can think of a newspaper to cancel

Laughably bad "take" on pretty much every level. WTF, @nytimes.com???

Incredible as it may seem, NYT was once respected.

"A show is ending due to censurship, what else should be cut next?" is not the best take for a newpapaer, but an okay one for a propaganda outlet... your choise I guess.

It's shit takes like this that led me to cancel my subscription.

Your paper is over

lol this is fantastic! "While we're at it, we should go ahead and burn these other books too!"

I wonder if NY Times knows that convoluted questions are neither journalism nor headlines? Do you think they know? Are questions in a clickbait article relevant when the article itself is not? Look at me! I did three unanswered questions! I’m officially talented enough to write for the NY Times!

Articles like this are why no one takes you seriously anymore. At all. Anywhere.

My lord!! Are you serious here? SNL is great, my 20 year old kids watch with their friends - HOWEVER the point here being - he’s off the air due to an edict by the president!! Censorship. Full blown… you’re the “free press” - and this is your take??

The NY Times is older than both those shows combined. Maybe you should give it up
