I think I can explain it to you, Joey. The New York Times was once the nation's most prominent and trustworthy source of News. For years the quality of the journalism has steadily declined and it has been reduced to a tabloid rag which no longer cares about journalistic standards but is desperate to sell newspapers. Therefore, they now have to manufacture stories in order to print something shocking in hopes to sell papers. Newspapers are fading fast in this country as the competition form online resources makes less people rely on sources like the Times. I still believe that the sport of horse racing will be around long after the Times is gone.
