The publisher of the New York Times, A.G. Sulzberger, penned an op-ed last week that ran under the headline, “With Talk of ‘Treason,’ Trump Crosses a Line.” Sulzberger wrote about the escalating war the president is waging against the press. “First it was the ‘failing New York Times.’ Then ‘fake news.’ Then ‘enemy of the people.’ President Trump’s escalating attacks on the New York Times have paralleled his broader barrage on American media. He’s gone from misrepresenting our business, to assaulting our integrity, to demonizing our journalists with a phrase that’s been used by generations of demagogues.”
