>The NYT is in no way far left. It's a fairly centrist, vaguely middle-right publication. They have the occasional leftist essay, but far more often their op-eds are very strangely right-wing.

I don't know what this site is or why it should be treated as authoritative, but putting Jacobin and NYT Opinion on the same plane seems pretty divorced from reality.
I wouldn't say so. They're both definitely center-left, though they may not be to the same extremes. Here's the creds on AllSides: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AllSides

NYT is center-left: https://www.allsides.com/news-source/new-york-times

Jacobian is further left than that: https://www.allsides.com/news-source/jacobin-media-bias
