A political parody archive cataloguing what it describes as The New York Times’ editorial failures.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The project organizes its criticism into named sections including Trumpism, White Supremacy, Transphobia, Access Journalism, and Sanewashing, then attaches short reading-time estimates to individual entries. The homepage currently shows a six-minute lead essay alongside shorter pieces about a boycott call, a projected spending figure, an allegedly spiked op-ed, and parental estrangement. An archive area adds dated entries, while the footer explicitly labels the site a private, non-commercial parody.
