Remember, the Ochs-Sulzbergers profited from covering up the Holodomor when it was happening — the intentional starvation of millions of Ukrainians by Stalin. They won a Pulitzer Prize for lying about a genocide. And they've admitted it. t.co/mIvNn9eORY

The fact that the Ochs-Sulzbergers have now reinvented themselves as cheerleaders for Ukraine (!) after literally abetting the Holodomor is like Julius Streicher turning himself into a champion of Israel. The level of brazen fraud is off the charts.

If companies are paying reparations for the Holocaust, as they should, what should the New York Times Company pay for the Holodomor? Well, we can liquidate NYTCO. And send the $4.8B to Ukraine. It's a drop in the bucket for millions dead. But Ukraine certainly needs the money!

Why is Ukraine today *still* fighting for independence from Russia? Because the Ochs-Sulzbergers who own the New York Times Company helped Stalin crush Ukraine. And just as there's continuity from Stalin to Putin, there's continuity of NYT ownership.

Amidst all the Ukraine coverage...did you hear about this from NYT? No, because they're an *unreliable narrator*. But it's well documented. Movies have been made. And all of the lies of Duranty, the Ochs-Sulzberger employee, were well known at the time.

Think about the scope of this. The NYT abetted the genocide of millions. They won a Pulitzer for it. The Ochs-Sulzbergers made money too. Decades later, they briefly admit it. No penalty. Out of the news cycle. And today...cheerleaders for Ukraine!

They took responsibility...how? Did they return the Pulitzer? Pay reparations? Did they send a dollar of aid to Ukraine? Did they publish a front pager on their own role in Ukraine's subjugation? And what's the statute of limitations on genocide denial?

They didn't just "cover an important story badly"! They won a Pulitzer for covering up genocide. They made money from printing lies. And they attacked those like Gareth Jones who got the story right. From @AshleyRindsberg's book: t.co/ytIwTzFBEe t.co/Y5XK00XU3c
