"Quality" .. perhaps in the non-political areas. But when it comes to being objective, they are just an extension of the White House Propaganda department. Their coverage of Lois Lerner, for example has been exceedingly light. Their lack of in-depth Benghazi reporting is also ridiculous. They spend more ink writing about Goodnight Moon than they do about the Nidal Hassan terrorism case. I'm not asking the Times to agree with me.. just cover the news from a fair and balanced perspective. There is little or no diversity in that newsroom. It's all some variation of the N.E. white liberal viewpoint. It's almost like they look with disdain on any ideas that aren't following the party line. It's the US version of Pravda. Though, I do love there coverage on non-political, non-national security issues. I would pay to subscribe to the Cooking section for sure.
