Paul Graham on Twitter: "I don't think the NYT is trying to destroy it. They just need someone to pick a fight with in order to generate outrage clicks. These fights are good for both their businesses, just like beefs between rappers.… https://t.co/sq9x0RZqH0"

  Think there's a distinction between the NYT as a company with financial incentives and some of the staff as an organized internal lobby with ideological/ personal ones and it seems very unclear where decision making sits. Though on beef => click there may be aligned motives

  Does it really look like Sulzberger is in control? Eg: 150 unionized NYT staff request removal of colleague because management’s punishment wasn’t harsh enough. Total subversion of union protections.

  Damn, I have to admit I ABSOLUTELY fall for this trap most of the time. Substack and NYT are often playing the same game. I wonder if they all get together for drinks and laugh at the plebs that fall for it. #wwe #media
