Florida fund sues New York Times for records concerning editorial standards
The petition says the board failed to monitor editorial standards as shareholders cite 72 acknowledged errors and a whistleblower’s repeated complaints.
- On Tuesday, shareholders led by The State Board of Administration of Florida and the National Center for Public Policy Research sued The New York Times, alleging the company failed to prevent false reporting and anti-Israel bias.
- A November 2023 whistleblower report detailed concerns about editorial standards, including the hiring of a freelancer who said he "supports the Palestinian struggle against occupation" and praised Hitler, which shareholders claim The Company ignored.
- Evidence includes 26 slides presented to a standards editor detailing rejected pro-Israel footage, alongside the 2025 article "Gazans Are Dying of Starvation," which omitted pre-existing health conditions for a child, Mohammed, that Getty Images noted.
- A spokesperson for The Times told The Epoch Times the lawsuit has "no merit" and was brought for an "improper purpose," characterizing it as an attempt to chill journalism protected by the First Amendment.
- The 48-page filing alleges the Board failed its obligation to monitor internal controls, claiming journalistic standards were "weaponized" to serve unchecked editors' personal agendas without proper Board-level oversight.
