"The NYT is on Marco Rubio’s case. The paper reported he’s had 4 traffic tickets in 17 years! Not only that, he used an $800,000 book advance to pay off $100,000 in student loans and buy an $80,000 fishing boat – or a “luxury speed boat”. All this packed into not one, but two stories. The second story appeared on Wednesday’s front page under the headline Rubio Career Bedeviled by Financial Struggles.
"The editors seem unaware that Rubio’s financial struggles are the same struggles bedeviling a lot of normal people. Jon Stewart is on The Times’ case.
"Meanwhile a picture directly above the Rubio story, in the print edition, features the financial struggles of former House Speaker Dennis Hastert. Hastert’s struggles aren’t so much like those of normal people. He’s accused of agreeing to pay $3.5 million in blackmail. Paying blackmail isn’t illegal, but using your own cash to do it is, if you withdraw over $10,000. Hastert tried to avoid that by taking out less than 10 grand more often. Apparently that’s illegal too." . . .
Marco Rubio vs. The New York Times
...Those little New York Times articles (hit pieces) about Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and his main squeeze, Jeanette Rubio, receiving 17 traffic infractions, as well as living a lavish, Miami Vice-style life in West Miami, Florida, continue to be clowned by other members of the media.
"The Rubios are far from wealthy. This I know because Rubio still owes me $2 for a valet tip I loaned him in 2010.
"The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart piled on Hillary Clinton’s press shop, better known as The New York Times, mocking them for trying to cast a bad light over the Rubios for paying off student loans, owning a offshore fishing boat, and getting those annoying traffic tickets."
NBC Hypes Rubio ‘Under Fire’ for ‘Money Troubles’
"On Wednesday, NBC’s Today seized on two New York Times hit pieces against Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio, as national correspondent Peter Alexander proclaimed: “He is one of the Republicans' fastest rising stars, just 44, the youngest presidential candidate in the field. But this morning, new scrutiny is focused on Florida Senator Marco Rubio's financial struggles and spending habits.”
"The headline on screen throughout the two-and-half-minute report declared: “Rubio Fights Back Over Finances; Candidate’s Money Troubles Under Fire in New Report' ”
Conservatives howl in rage at NYT for reporting Rubio’s traffic tickets — while ‘ignoring’ Hillary Clinton
