NYT to call for Plane control?
The NYT thinks airplanes were responsible for the thousands of deaths on 9-11.

They tweeted that "airplanes took aim" at the twin tower.

Sure, they've since updated it. But you know they actually think the tool is actually the cause of crime rather than the person brandishing the tool.

Nah, it was just "some people did something" on 9/11/01 (and 9/11/12).

You know very well their tweet was crafted to avoid the perception of offending certain demographics.

I assume regardless of ideology we could all agree that altering message to prevent offense demonstrates further erosion of journalistic integrity.
