NYT Mocks PizzaGate as Impossible, But Its CEO Covered up Jimmy Savile Scandal for years
Is the New York Times really the correct outlet for an impartial investigation into an elite pedo ring?
The CEO of the fabled grey lady is none other than Mark Thompson, the former BBC director.
Mark Thompson "lied" during the Jimmy Savile investigation, and is at least partly to blame for allowing a monster like Savile to operate within the BBC for so long "undetected".

15 years ago, anyone who alleged that the BBC was covering up widespread child was dismissed as crazy.
Why such an insane overreaction by the government and media, if it's just a dumb, baseless fake scandal for the gullible? The internet is full of wild claims. Religion even fuller.
#fakenews over reaction
The New York Times reporter who sold the world on Saddam's Weapons of Mass Destruction, Judith Miller, is now pushing the “Russian election hack” lie
Via Wikipedia
Miller became embroiled in controversy after her coverage of Iraq’s Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) program both before and after the 2003 invasion was discovered to have been based on the inaccurate information in the intelligence investigations, particularly those stories that were based on sourcing from the now-disgraced Ahmed Chalabi. The New York Times later determined that a number of stories she had written for the paper were inaccurate. According to commentator Ken Silverstein, Miller’s Iraq reporting “effectively ended her career as a respectable journalist.” Miller acknowledged in The Wall Street Journal on April 4, 2015 that some of her Times coverage was inaccurate, although she had relied on sources she had used numerous times in the past, including those who supplied information for her reporting that had previously won a Pulitzer Prize. She further stated that policymakers and intelligence analysts had relied on the same sources as hers, and that at the time there was broad consensus that Iraq had stockpiles of WMD.
Miller was later involved in the Plame Affair, in which the status of Valerie Plame as a member of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) became widely known. When asked to name her sources, Miller invoked reporter’s privilege and refused to reveal her sources in the Central Intelligence Agency leak and spent 85 days in jail protecting her source, Scooter Libby. Miller later was forced to resign from her job at the New York Times in November 2005. Later, she was a contributor to the Fox News Channel and a fellow at the conservative Manhattan Institute.
