The New York Times committed a major faux pas on Saturday that would likely bury a right of center news outlet.
The newspaper tweeted what was seen by many as a racist assertion that black and Latino students rarely excel in math, before deleting it for being “poorly phrased.”
Unfortunately for The Times, the internet is forever.
Whoops, NYT. pic.twitter.com/jS3YOS7jbz

The Times’ liberal allies will give them a pass here, but social media users weren’t so generous to the newspaper that just added honky-hating Sarah Jeong to its editorial board.
Keep in mind, despite what your lying eyes may tell you, the liberal media narrative insists that the racists are on the right.

Looks like the mask slipped at the New York Times. Disgraceful. https://t.co/3lc9UPTbo0

No surprise here, just The New York Slimes caught yet again, trying beyond their ability to be a voice for world equality but failing miserably gosh damn it, when that old democratic, racist hatred creeps up on them like a recurring cancer that can never be completely healed.

Once you hire your first racist, it’s downhill from there.

No. Sarah will keep her job. A white republican male will be fired.If they can find one.

They meant what they said the first time. Deep down, liberals are the rock-solid racists. They see everything through the prism of skin color.

A racist is someone who only sees the world through the lens of race. Way to prove the point, NYT.
