In a First, The New York Times to Advertise During Academy Awards


I've been asking if the news media was planning to go on the offensive now that we've been supplanted on the right by purveyors of fake news -- no, I'm not referring to news that conservatives just don't like, I'm talking about actual "fake news" -- and Donald Trump has branded us the enemy of the people.
