Wow,
@nytimes how much did they pay you for this ad made to look like news? -
“But most deals won’t be worth your money, and the ones that are will most likely be hard to catch ”
-
The Times can do great work. But this is still an ad. "Throughout Monday and Tuesday, Wirecutter, a New York Times company that reviews and recommends products, is helping you highlight the best deals through its website..."
-
An ad doesn’t critique the product, which Wirecutter’s reporting does This is reporting on consumer products, which is not advertising.
-
This piece is telling me what products to buy from a specific retailer. That it is also telling me what products not to buy at that retailer is helpful, but so what. Whatever their intention, they look and sound--to me-- like a shill for Amazon.
-
Some of my friends make the same point when newspapers write about protest marches- that the newspaper is advocating for overturning the elected government. Everyone sees newspaper coverage through their own advocacy lens.
-
You're right about that. My lenses are anti-corporate, especially anti-BIG-corporate, perhaps to a fault.
-
You know how I feel about our consumer culture, too. So much waste and so little meaning.

Thanks NYT, but I'd rather make sure Amazon pays their workers a livable wage. Maybe report on that?

Okay, I ended up with a whole article but you only mention 3 items. Seems to be trying to guide us into another path. It would be better to ask to follow the Twitter account you mentioned that's it.
