Ted Cruz has been critical of the New York Times for a good long while, and with good reason. Especially when you look at their most recent train wreck in attempting to take Kavanaugh down AGAIN. It’s almost like they are on some strange quest to self destruct.

Ted called attention to their ‘stunning correction’ in the Kavanaugh piece and blasted 2020 Democratic candidates for using the story to push for impeachment:

READ stunning NYT CORRECTION. If a high-school freshman did this on a school paper, he’d get an F. This is an outfit that has won multiple Pulitzers; presumably they know how to be actual journalists. It’s almost as if the reporters, editors, publisher have a political agenda…. https://t.co/8YrwOJJTQE — Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) September 16, 2019

He’d get an F.

HA HA HA HA HA

And right? It is almost like they have a political agenda.

The correction, written by NYT, reads: “the female student declined to be interviewed & friends say that SHE DOES NOT RECALL the incident. That information has been added to the article.” Please, somebody, try to give an explanation for omitting that central fact other than bias. — Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) September 16, 2019

That narrative wasn’t going to write and support itself, Ted.

Duh.

Given the NYT “correction,” what are the odds that any of the 2020 Dem presidentials who relied on the NYT story to call for impeaching Kavanaugh (at last count, Warren, Sanders, Harris, Castro, O'Rourke & Booker) will modify or retract their own partisan position? ZERO. — Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) September 16, 2019

The odds are ZERO.

Zilch.

Zip.

Nada.

None.

Don’t be surprised if they actually double down and pretend they didn’t see this ‘note.’

Something strange is afoot at the Circle K.

Is that a correction…or a retraction? It's hard to see a difference. — Charles Bellows (@charles_bellows) September 16, 2019

It was ultimately more of a ‘clarification’ but really they should’ve just retracted the whole thing considering the basis of the entire story was all but debunked.

It’s not really all that stunning. — The Failing CornPop Times (@FormerNewspaper) September 16, 2019

Sad but true.
