I think that making the whole experience one medium or the other, all text or all video, is a relic of platforms that only supported one medium, newsprint and TV. Yes, some stories will demand so much of one or the other that maybe using all video or text makes sense, but clearly that's not what's happening.

If the NYT wants to tell stories as effectively as possible, they should be using the most effective tools as needed. Their priorities seem to be elsewhere.
