JTN: New York Times military journalist David Philipps called out his employer in a since-deleted tweet that said the paper would have protected the identity of the Pentagon leaker had he given the information to the Times.
“The NYT worked feverishly to find the identity of the guy leaking TS docs on Discord. Ironically, if they same guy had leaked to the NYT, we’d be working feverishly to conceal it,” Philipps tweeted Friday with a link to his paper’s story about Jack Teixeira, a 21-year-old Massachusetts Air National Guardsman who faces charges under the Espionage Act for allegedly leaking sensitive Pentagon documents online.
The following day, Philipps tweeted: “I just deleted a tweet that lacked nuance. Much more nuance coming soon.” Many users responded with screenshots of the reporter’s deleted tweet calling out the paper. MORE

David “Captain Obvious” Philipps validates what we all know to be the case. The NYT is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Party.
