We know how tiny gets to read the NYT. How do the people who claim to read the NYT and the WaPo get around that pesky pay site deal? I don't read the WSJ because it's not free (3-4 articles are per month I think).
When you add in the complete distain for them (WaPo, NYT) as a source and total disregard for the information they contain (as shown by multiple posters on the site) leads me to believe y'all aren't being truthful about your sources.

I have that $4 a month deal. I'm not going to pay the $16 or $17 a month for it after the "teaser" rate expires.

I got censored a lot on the WAPO. This site truly is a breath of fresh air in comparison. Freedom of Speech is alive and thriving on eccie.
Anyway, I'm kind of inclined to sign up again using a different Email address and credit card and try to get the cheap rate. I won't do it now because I waste enough time here already.
I could be tempted to pay the full rate for the NYT. Not for their coverage of politics or their editorials, that's for sure. But when something's going on somewhere else in the world, their coverage is second to none, better than the WSJ. You could say the same about CNN, but these days it's so fixated on U.S. politics it has time for little else.
