Reply to comment by thisismynewacct in ‘Whitewashing a Pogrom’: Jews Assail New York Times for New Failure in Crown Heights Riot Recap by arrogant_ambassador

I don’t think misrepresenting the crown heights riots has anything to do with Hasidic education.

You’re right which is why it was odd that the author of your article brought it up as some way to paint the Times

There’s a clear bias here concerning the way the times covers Hasidic education, but that doesn’t mean the article is without merit.

The NYtimes frequently does exposes about corruption in the local education system and municipal government, how is doing the same about hasidism bias?

I think they were saying the article has a bias against the Times, but the article still has merit.

  1. I think “misrepresenting” is too strong of a word when it comes to the riots.

  2. The author is clearly upset about the recent very accurate coverage of the corruption in many Hasidic schools receiving state, city, and federal funds.

I don’t think it is. It was definitely more one sided in terms of Black people assaulting Jewish people.
