Bari Weiss left the NYT in 2020 and wrote a highly critical diatribe of the paper and how its editorial staff refused to publish conservative viewpoints. I don’t recall, but she may have been responsible for the Times publishing the controversial Tom Cotton opinion in which he called for the Insurrection Act to be invoked and the military sent in to cities with George Floyd protests, which were mostly peaceful until right-wing actors like the Bugaloo Bois would show up to start the violence. The article below includes the controversy over the Cotton article.

“Weiss joined The New York Times as a staff editor and writer for the Opinion section in 2017. She quickly gained attention for her provocative takes on topics like campus politics and cultural appropriation. Her tenure at the Times was contentious, with some colleagues accusing her of promoting conservative views.

In July 2020, Weiss resigned from the newspaper in a public letter that went viral. She cited a "hostile work environment" and claimed she faced bullying from coworkers. Her departure sparked debates about ideological diversity in media and cancel culture.”
