Lets put our thinking caps on & start believing this new truth, since the New York Times has spoken.


This is an op-ed. This "NYT tries to arbitrate truth" trope is so tired, especially when it's usually used on opinion pieces.


It’s also the opinion of a linguistics professor at Columbia, so this really is just someone opining on his field, not making an autoritative declaration. And he probably didn’t write the headline. People need to stop looking so much at which brand is publishing something and focus on the byline.
