How on Earth can News NOT be political? It’s inherently political by it’s very nature. It’s foolish to think one can report on a fundamentally political event from an apolitical standpoint. Asking news to be apolitical would be like asking musicians to make “silent music”.

There's Twitter for politics, and that's not entirely what I meant. Let me rephrase.
News should not be biased towards one political ideology, at least in America. Unfortunately, that is how it is, considering the 1st amendment.

Despite what you may think about his politics this is clearly a denouncable deed by the NYT. You don't have the right to silence your political opponents. What do you think?
EDIT:NYT has gone back on their decision to publish Tucker Carlson's home address after much backlash and also allege that they were never going to publish it.
That’s horrible. Hey libbies! How would you like it is a Fox News reporter gave out addresses of people that worked in CNN, NYT, etc. I think you would go absolutely bonkers.

You really can’t keep people from wanting to be a moron. All you can do is know the details and challenge the falsehoods. People with closed minds and preconceptions are not going to be swayed by edits suggesting the op may not be true.

They have done that. Also, not a liberal, and I oppose doxxing in general. Others being hypocrites doesn’t mean you should defend something bad.

First amendment or not, humans, as flawed beings, will never be free of bias. The same is true for the press. No news can ever be entirely unbiased.

CNN's Tucker Carlson thought he was having a bit of fun when, during a "Crossfire" segment in which he defended telemarketers, he was asked for his home number but recited the number of the Fox News Washington bureau instead. Fox retaliated by posting Carlson's unlisted Virginia number on its Web site.
After his wife was deluged with obscene calls, Carlson says, he went to Fox's Capitol Hill bureau Friday to complain, and was told his number would be taken down if he apologized on the air. Fox spokeswoman Irena Briganti says Carlson was "completely irresponsible" and that the bureau was "inundated" with "vicious phone calls. . . . CNN threw the first punch here. Correcting his mistake was good journalism."
Carlson, who apologized on "Crossfire" but also criticized Fox's form of retaliation, now says: "They're a mean, sick group of people. Don't harass my wife and kids. Even the Mafia doesn't do that."

Fox News did give out the private home phone number of a CNN reporter. Tucker Carlson. He had given out the number of their Washington bureau as a joke, back when he worked in CNN. So they put his unlisted home number online until the harassment he and his family received forced him to apologise.
You may also be interested in knowing that Tucker Carlson made up this story about the NYT being about to publish his address. They've denied his claims and there's no evidence.The Black Forrest wrote:

Well? Phone numbers are something you can change. It’s a bother sure. It’s better then your home address being given out.
Carlson is a pig. Still.....he doesn’t deserve to be trolled at home.

That is patently impossible. No person can be "non-ideological". A news organization will inevitably be "ideological" by virtue of being the product of specific social, economic and cultural conditions that it cannot escape.

I would have to agree with you on that atleast no news channel nor a person can be completely non-biased but talking about the NYT ofcourse they would deny that they were never going to post his address they have a huge incentive to do so.
