From a New York magazine story by Shawn McCreesh headlined “Everybody Wants a Raise at the New York Times”:
As much of the media industry sank beneath the digital waves in the last decade, the New York Times became something like Noah’s ark. If you could get aboard, you could ride out the storm and even be proud of the work you were doing along the way. Après le déluge, it’s emerged as the biggest news website in America, bigger than the websites of CNN, Fox, and its historic rival, the Washington Post. Two weeks ago, the Times seemed to rub it in with a story about how the Post can’t get its reporters back into the newsroom and is losing subscribers while “two of The Post’s top competitors — The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal — have added subscriptions since Mr. Trump left office.”
