"Punch had taken over the role from his brother-in-law, and would eventually hand it off to his son, 'Pinch' (Arthur Jr.), in 1992, who passed it down to his son, A.G. Sulzberger, in 2018. So the man in charge of the the DealBook Summit was the grandson of the man who tried to hire Jeffrey Epstein, with zero journalism experience, to work for the New York Times."

"But before he did, Epstein was offered one more deal.
According to a 2014 unpublished draft from Michael Wolff found in the latest Epstein files, Jeffrey Epstein was recruited by none other than Arthur Ochs 'Punch' Sulzberger, publisher of the New York Times."

"Sometime around 1976, just after Jeffrey Epstein was fired by the Dalton School for poor performance as a math and physics teacher, he was offered a job at Bear Stearns, a major investment firm that would later collapse in the 2008 Financial Crisis. He’d caught the eye of Dalton father, Ace Greenberg, who brought Epstein into the fold of high finance."

"Her allegations would later be made public by attorney Alan Dershowitz, when he unsealed her original statement in his defamation case against her (after also being accused by Giuffre)."
Despite knowing this, and with Leonard protesting, New York Times featured Ehud Barak at its prestigious DealBook Summit this month. Why?
Leonard writes,

Virginia Choked said that the unnamed prime minister seemed to take pleasure in seeing her fear for her life; she came away from his rape of her bleeding from her mouth, vagina, and anus.
"Virginia Giuffre did not expressly name Ehud Barak in her memoir as the 'well-known prime minister,' but did in court filings from sometime prior to 2015."

Ellie Leonard's powerful statement on Virginia Giuffre, Jeffrey Epstein, and the role of the New York Times in dealing with this story is downright painful to read. She provides strong reasons to conclude that Ehud Barak was the "well-known Prime Minister" who Virginia Giuffre says raped her more savagely than anyone had done before.

A.G. Sulzberger: A Free People Need a Free Press – The New York Times
Opinion, May 13, 2025
Credit…Will Matsuda for The New York TimesMr. Sulzberger is the publisher of The New York Times.
This essay was originally delivered as a talk at the Kellogg Institute at the University of Notre Dame’s Keough School of Global Affairs on Tuesday.
The role of a free and independent press in a healthy democracy is under direct attack, with increasingly aggressive efforts to curtail and punish independent journalism. I don’t believe it’s an overstatement to say that this anti-press campaign threatens the special formula that has made the American model so successful for nearly 250 years.
A free people need a free press.
Across the world, we’ve seen democracy in retreat. And for aspiring strongmen seeking to undermine the laws and norms and institutions that underpin a healthy democracy, the free press is usually one of the first targets. It’s no secret why. Once you’ve constrained the ability of journalists to provide independent information to the public about those in power, it becomes far easier to act with impunity.
From its beginning, our nation has recognized journalism as an essential ingredient for democratic self-governance. The founding fathers enshrined this insight in the First Amendment, making the press the only profession explicitly protected in the Constitution. The generations of presidents, lawmakers and Supreme Court justices that followed largely championed and defended press freedoms.
Behind their support was a bipartisan recognition that the press plays a crucial role in our success as a nation. Three roles, actually, each of which also maps precisely to current challenges undermining the nation’s civic health:

The anti-press playbook is being used in this country — and it could not come at a more difficult time for the American press.

Here's an idea. Instead of referencing the New York Times when you see some sort of sanewashing or fluffery, write AG Sulzberger's New York Times. When you see straight up administration propaganda from the Washington Post identify it as from Jeff Bezos' WaPo. Same for John Malone's CNN. People are responsible for this ongoing information warfare, they should own it.
Nazis are not Conservatives. You cannot appease Nazis, nor report what Nazis want to read without tanking truth and journalism. You’re welcome, AG Sulzberger.

"If Trump wins in part because the public was insufficiently alarmed by the press coverage of the 2024 election, the people who run the Times will have the extremely dubious distinction of having gotten Trump elected twice."
