I also have this rock that keeps away tigers, if you're interested.

But be that as it may, let's sum up:
The claim is they've doxxed someone before. You weakly attempt to support the claim by showing an example of them not doxxing someone.
In conclusion: The claim is unsupported and can safely be dismissed. Bravo.

Or we can believe there is some grand conspiracy to tarnish the reputation of the NYT!

Grand conspiracy to tarnish their reputation? Probably not. Attempt by Tucker Carlson to distract from the sexual harassment in which he is named? Much more plausible.

Tuckers own lawyer argued last month in court that the claims on his show should not be treated with the same credibility as what the NYT says.

It's weird that you think you're on to a winner by arguing that if we believe that Tucker Carlson engaged in workplace sexual harassment then we must, necessarily, also believe his conveniently timed claims that the NYT were about to dox him.

You are right now trying to tarnish the reputation of the NYT.
No, I don't think you're a conspiracy theorist.
I think you're just engaged in political debate with the aim of "tarnishing the reputation of the NYT"

When you finally admit that you're failing, are you going to go find a third example of NYT doxxing someone?

Or is two enough? One weak (slate star codex), and one almost non-existent (something TC said). We're supposed to just give in and admit the NYT is a shitty paper?

You don't like the stories NYT prints, and it's not hard to guess why.

Just don't read it then.

-Except Tucker Carlson and Fox (who totally have done this) say they were.

And we should all just take them at their word?

If only there had been a poll attached ...

[ ]I believe Tucker Carlson
[ ]I'm not sure about Tucker Carlson
[X]I don't believe Tucker Carlson

[ ]I believe the NYT
[X]I'm not sure about the NYT
[ ]I don't believe the NYT

Then I wouldn't have posted in the thread at all!

Your conclusion don't follow from your premise. You're now claiming that because [x], we can conclude the NYT is shitty because [Y]. There is no link between the two so your argument is fatally flawed.

That said, while I won't contest your claim that Bari Weiss was a shitty person, I will ask why you think that NY Times explanation demonstrates anything? Ithink it's pretty reasonable:
The president and some of his supporters have attacked the credibility of the whistle-blower, who has presented information that has touched off a landmark impeachment proceeding. The president himself has called the whistle-blower’s account a “political hack job.”

We decided to publish limited information about the whistle-blower — including the fact that he works for a nonpolitical agency and that his complaint is based on an intimate knowledge and understanding of the White House — because we wanted to provide information to readers that allows them to make their own judgments about whether or not he is credible.

Legitimate reasons for giving more information - and notably not doxxing anyone or identifying them.

Ansarre wrote:Or we can believe there is some grand conspiracy to tarnish the reputation of the NYT!

There's no "grand conspiracy", but there seems to be a cultural drive to tear down the credibility of the NYT. Interesting that you're trying to do so based on what they didn't do.

You don't even need to believe the accusations. They exist, and Carlson, innocent or guilty, would have reason to distract people from that.
