The New York Times was under fire for headlining its story on violence against Hindus in Bangladesh after ex-PM Sheikh Hasina fled the country as ‘revenge attacks’. The American newspaper course-corrected after backlash on social media. After backlash NYT removed ‘revenge attacks’ and changed title from "Hindus in Bangladesh Face Revenge Attacks After Prime Minister’s Exit" to "Hindus in Bangladesh Face Attacks After Prime Minister’s Exit".

The section "Controversies" should ideally present a summary of what is in "List of The New York Times controversies" using neutral language. I propose to move the existing content to the article "List of The New York Times controversies", and to keep only a summary here. Here is a possible one:
I find it disturbing that the Wall Street journal wiki has a “political views” section while the New York Times does not. Voluminous sources indicate a strong left leaning bias for the times and this should be expressly indicated in the times wiki 72.31.18.94 (talk) 15:13, 24 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
