NY Times hires journalist with controversial views to cover Israel-Hamas conflict.
The New York Times Hires Hitler-Loving Journalist to Cover Hamas-Israel War
Imagine this: the once-respected New York Times, a newspaper that despises Donald Trump because of his alleged similarities to Hitler, has actually hired a journalist who openly praises Adolf Hitler. I know, it sounds unbelievable, but it’s true!
The real-life New York Times, which used to be a reputable newspaper, has hired Soliman Hijjy, a freelance videographer who posted pro-Hitler messages on Facebook and even shared a photo of himself with a caption glorifying the Holocaust. And get this, Hijjy is now covering the Hamas-Israel War for the Times.
Now, let’s provide some historical context here. Israel is a country predominantly inhabited by Jews, and as we all know, Hitler wasn’t exactly a fan of Jews. But despite this glaring conflict of interest, Times Editor-in-Chief Blithering Prevarication the Third defended the decision, claiming that they took actions to address their concerns about Hijjy’s problematic social media posts.
What these actions were, we can only speculate. Perhaps they involved an exorcism-like ritual with Holy Water and green slime. Who knows? But the Times remains committed to maintaining their “highest journalistic standards” for someone who is in harmony with Hitler and the Holocaust.
Trust in the Media Hits an All-Time Low
In other news, Gallup’s annual poll on trust in the media reveals that a record high 39% of Americans have absolutely no trust in the media, while another 29% have very little trust. However, among Democrats, 58% still trust the media, despite their questionable track record.
On a more positive note, a whopping 98% of those who share Hijjy’s admiration for Hitler trust the New York Times’ coverage of the Israel-Hamas war. Although, it’s worth noting that two percent of them believe the Times is too tough on Hamas, but let’s not dwell on that.
So, there you have it. The New York Times, once a respected newspaper, has made a baffling decision that further erodes trust in the media. It’s a strange world we live in.

How does the decision to hire a journalist with controversial viewpoints impact the New York Times’ commitment to unbiased reporting and journalistic ethics?
Sion to hire Hijjy, claiming that it was important to have diverse perspectives in reporting. He argued that hiring a journalist with a controversial viewpoint would bring a different angle to the coverage of the conflict, allowing readers to hear a wider range of voices.
However, this decision raises serious questions about the integrity and credibility of the New York Times. How can a newspaper that claims to be committed to unbiased reporting and journalistic ethics hire someone who openly praises a mass murderer responsible for one of the greatest atrocities in human history?
It is not a matter of diversity of perspectives, but rather a matter of basic journalistic values. Hitler’s ideology was based on hate, racism, and genocide. Hiring someone who sympathizes with such a figure not only undermines the principles of journalism but also dishonors the memories of the millions of people who suffered and perished under Hitler’s regime.
The New York Times has long positioned itself as a champion of truth and justice. It has been at the forefront of exposing corruption, advocating for civil rights, and speaking truth to power. But with this hiring decision, the newspaper is betraying its own principles and betraying the trust of its readers.
The role of journalism is to inform, educate, and provide objective analysis. It is the duty of journalists to hold power to account, to seek the truth, and to present it to the public. By hiring a journalist who openly supports Hitler, the New York Times is not only compromising its own credibility but also failing in its responsibility to provide accurate and impartial reporting.
One can only wonder what the motivations behind this decision were. Was it a deliberate attempt to provoke controversy and gain attention? Or was it simply a lapse in judgment and a failure to properly vet the journalist before hiring? Whatever the reason, the consequences are damaging.
The credibility of the New York Times is now in question. Readers will inevitably wonder about the biases and agendas of the journalists and editors at the newspaper. Can they trust the reporting? Can they rely on the information presented? The hiring of Hijjy undermines the newspaper’s reputation and puts a stain on its history.
The New York Times must rectify this mistake immediately. The decision to hire a Hitler-loving journalist is not a mere error in judgment, but a betrayal of journalistic ethics. It is a disgrace to the profession and an insult to the victims of Hitler’s atrocities.
Journalism is a powerful tool that can shape public opinion, influence policy, and hold those in power accountable. It is essential that journalists uphold the highest standards of integrity, honesty, and accuracy. The New York Times must reevaluate its hiring practices, reaffirm its commitment to truth and impartiality, and make amends for this grave error.
In the face of growing misinformation and the erosion of public trust in media, it is more crucial than ever for newspapers like the New York Times to demonstrate their unwavering dedication to journalistic integrity. Hiring a Hitler-loving journalist is a step in the wrong direction, and it is imperative that the newspaper takes immediate action to restore its credibility and regain the trust of its readers.
