NY Times Senior Editor Carolyn Ryan is a hating, baiting hack.

We​ ​respect the passion of Sanders ​supporters. But I ​think ​they may be overlooking much of the coverage that we have provided​. In an election with some 20 candidates, Bernie Sanders, by my back-of-the-envelope estimate, has received more attention from The New York Times than all but ​​a few ​contenders: Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump and possibly Jeb Bush.

He has averaged less than one NY Times news article per week! The Time made no mention whatsoever of the more than 70,000 supporters Sanders drew in 3 days on his recent West Coast swing.

​We ​have captured — better than any news outlet — the remarkable ​reach Mr. Sanders has online with his followers​ and ​​the new ways he is reaching them. We just ran a story about the extraordinary ​efforts of web developers and tech people who — in their off hours — are building ​the ​machinery for the Bernie Sanders campaign.​

One decent article all month.

​We highlighted his small donor fundraising​. In the age of the super​-PAC​, ​the fact that his average contribution is $31.30 is impressive.

Where was this highlighted?

​We also have delved into his biography, his days as an alternative journalist in Vermont and his Brooklyn boyhood. We published a lengthy front page story ​comparing and ​contrasting Mr. Sanders with another Vermont political insurgent, Howard Dean.

Both of these articles were hit pieces.

We were among the first to identify the challenges for Mr. Sanders with African-American voters, and sent a reporter to South Carolina to capture how he was shifting his message to address that challenge.

This narrative was floated to derail Sanders' momentum.

We also captured the particularly strong response older voters were having to the message being offered by Mr. Sanders.

In a May article whose headline and text implied that Sanders' message was resonating only with other senior citizens.

​​We have ​reported on his views on Wall Street — his call for reinstating Glass-Steagall and ​breaking up the big banks. And we wrote about his call to raise the minimum wage to $15.

This was in an article discussing all 5 Democratic candidates appearing at an even in Iowa, and the main point of the article was how Sanders was "inching closer to attacking Hillary Clinton."

We also examined the potential ​impact​ of the expansive government programs both he and Mrs. Clinton are proposing — including his idea to make college tuition-free and implement a single payer health care system.

This is their so-called "analysis":

​The Sanders campaign stands out, in my experience, for its fervent energy and organization. But one of the​ strategies of ​Sanders supporters is to ​relentless​ly​ agitat​e ​for more ​​favorable​ coverage​ ​from The Times and other outlets. We are mindful of their critiques and listen to ​their concerns, and often point out stories to them that they have overlooked.But ultimately we have to use our journalistic judgment​ and serve a broad readership​, by cover​ing​ the entire field of candidates, and not ma​k​e decisions in response to lobbying campaigns. I’m puzzled by the tone complaints and I cannot say that I agree with them.

No issues for you! Only a steady diet of Trump and Hillary.

1. The NYT headline: "Bold fixes mean high price tags."

But if a candidate wants to dramatically boost war spending, not a peep about the 'price tag.'

I guess the people don't matter, but profits do.

2. She sounds defensive. Good, they have to be pushed to do their jobs and apparently

the PEOPLE are doing just that now.

Anyhow, they are not as relevant anymore especially since they disgraced themselves during the run-up to the Iraq War, and since the people now have an alternative, and much more reliable media from which to find facts rather the infotainment provided by the MSM.

3. They've been doing better in the past week or so.

Going by the comments to their articles, most of their readership are Bernie supporters.

4. I don't know about that. On the day that Sanders vaulted

ahead of Clinton in Iowa, here is the only article from the NY Times that so much as mantioned him:
