  1. If you're trying to make a case for him having a distinguished and successful career so far, you've done that. Thanks.
  2. If only, or mainly, NY Times Journalists got an award, you'd have a better point. But that's far from the case. Not just that, there are lots of journalists at the NY Times.
  3. It's undoubted that you posted it. That isn't the issue. Relevance is. I've produced 3 eminent news organizations that have no problem with hiring reporters who worked for Al Jazeera. That's what relevant evidence looks like.
  4. According the latest polls tens fo millions of people will vote for her. None of them trust her? As for the comminity'ts trust in me, you've done a survey of everyone?. But leave it to you to make a personal baseless comment. As for you, on the one hand you claim not to be a supporter of Trump, but your comments far back show no criticism of him at all but a torrent of criticism of Harris. And you call me untrustworthy? It is to laugh.
  5. Please. Either you're confessing that you posted an irrelevant piece of datu about a journalist, or you have some reason for thinking that having once been employed by Al Jazeera is relevant. But you offer no explanation why. And given that highly respected and scrupulous organizations like the NY Times, The Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal, hire reporters that once worked for Al Jazeera, it's no wonder that you don't want to get into it.
  6. I'm claiming it's not disqualifying to be a journalist who once worked for Al Jazeera. At least the New York Times doesn't think so. The Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal also employ journalists who once worked for Al Jazeera.
  7. Thanks for asserting that the article is biased. And thanks for not providing any analysis to show where the bias is located. The war is over?
  8. And I know that the New York Times hired him. Do you think that Times doesn't know what it's about when it hires people? That if he incompetently or dishonestly reported the news that they would have hired him? And I see you've got no answer for the fact that his co-author is a winner of a George Polk Award. You think she had no say in that article?
  9. Really, there was a chair of Marxian Economics? And as the Times article noted, a colleague of his noted that he steadily moved away from that. Not only that, but he headed a successful reform of the Jamaican economic system. Unless you believe that Marxism works, it's dubious that the reforms were based on Marxism.
  10. I guess you know better than the New York Times how to judge who's a reliable journalist. And he was one of two. The other having won a George Polk Award. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Polk_Awards
  11. And the only evidence you provided was their names. So, if a report comes from someone with a surname that indicates they are Jewish, would that be valid evidence that the report is not to be trusted? Or would it be anti-semitism?
  12. Maria Abi-Habib Maria Abi-Habib is an investigative correspondent based in Mexico City, which she uses as a base to cover Latin America. In 2022, she won the George Polk award and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for her work in Haiti. https://archive.ph/3632N#selection-217.0-232.0 "With more than a decade of experience, I began my career at Al Jazeera English, covering the Middle East region. I then worked at Al Arabiya and The National, where my roles as a roving reporter and editor took me to more than a dozen countries across the Middle East including Saudi Arabia, Syria, Libya, Lebanon and Jordan." https://www.nytimes.com/by/ismaeel-naar What's even worse, is that now he works for the New York Times. We know what Fox News says about them.
  13. Given how even more hated Israel has become in Saudi Arabia by the locals, it's dubious. MbS is now explicitly demanding a 2 state solution before relations can be regularized.
  14. Since you can't find anything wrong with their reporting, you go after their ethnicity instead. You've got nothing. Well, not nothing. You've got bigotry. Lots and lots of bigotry.
  15. Despite what right-wingers claim, Harris' father wasn't a professor Marxist Economics. "Both in essays and in the classroom, Dr. Harris argued that market economies should be inclusive rather than monopolistic. Some of his scholarly papers analyzed Marxist economic thinking, but by the early 1990s, “he had become more realistic, because he’d learned along the way,” said Anne Krueger, a conservative economist and fellow Stanford professor at the time. “He certainly had more faith in government than some of us did. But among the people I knew as Marxian economists, he was not there.” https://archive.ph/uB5eZ Not only that, but he retired early after Jamaica asked him to help reform their economy.
  16. on the other hand... A Mideast Shift Is Underway, Without Israel A year ago, Saudi Arabia was preparing to recognize Israel in a normalization deal that would have fundamentally reshaped the Middle East and further isolated Iran and its allies while barely lifting a finger to advance Palestinian statehood. Now, that deal is further away than ever, even after the killing of the Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar, which has been widely seized upon as a potential opening for a peace deal. Instead, Saudi Arabia is warming relations with its traditional archenemy, Iran, while insisting that any diplomatic pact now hinges on Israel’s acceptance of a Palestinian state, a remarkable turnaround for the kingdom. https://archive.ph/DYldd#selection-4711.0-4715.179

  18. I just noticed this comment of yours. I actually hope you are being untrustworthy here. Otherwise, what it suggests about your competence is sad. Here's some of what I got when I typed in the information https://www.google.com/search?q=mcdonalds+alameda+central+ave&oq=mcdonalds+alameda+central+ave&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIJCAEQIRgKGKAB0gEJMTQ1ODNqMGo3qAIIsAIB&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

  20. Now if only there was such a thing as google maps to assist you in your search.
  21. Not really, it was in the first article that I cited.. But for some reason, archive.today cut off much of the article.
  22. Because saying that she worked at the McDonalds on Central Ave in Alameda isn't specific enough?
  23. It must be the very distant past. I visited your profile and went back many pages. Lots of negative comments about Harris but none about Trump. Not one. You're not fooling anybody. And this comment of yours shows just how low you'll go: It is the only job outside of government that has been verified by more than one source.
