Interesting note; the NYT profile linked in this article (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/07/us/defund-police-seattle-...) was by Nellie Bowles. She left NYT in Nov 2021 and revealed that she was bullied to leave. Articles that went against the NYT grain like these probably were the main cause. BTW, a similar bullying is underway on the topic of trans care, see this letter by NYT staff targeting a small group of journalists: https://nytletter.com/
That letter sure does like to smear gender critical folks, or even just those concerned about standards of medical care, as "anti-trans hate groups" and "far right hate groups". No wonder the NYT told them thanks but no thanks.
Interesting fact about Bowles that’s relevant to HN: Years ago she did a profile of Jessica Livingston that ticked pg off: https://www.vox.com/platform/amp/2014/8/21/11630108/ycs-jess...
