New York Times Invites Reader Questions on Its Journalism, Promising 0 Off-Limits Topics
1 articles · Updated · The New York Times · Jul 16
Summary
The New York Times asked readers to submit questions about how its journalism works, saying the effort is meant to increase clarity and transparency.
Editors and reporters across the newsroom will try to answer as many questions as possible, with suggested topics including bias checks, AI use, anonymous sources, Iran reporting and political polling.
The paper said nothing is off the table and pledged not to publish any part of a submission without first contacting the reader and hearing back.
The outreach frames the newsroom’s reporting process itself as the subject, inviting public scrutiny of how The Times gathers, verifies and presents news.
