if I told you that the New York Times hired a recently graduated college student with only a couple prior articles written on the subject of food and cooking to be their lead on the ground "reporter" on the "mass rape" hoax they fabricated, would you believe it? That's Adam Sella

here's a guy with a BA in literature and philosophy, focusing his entire work on food and cooking, and the New York Times suddenly after October 7 picks him to be their lead intrepid investigative on the ground "reporter" together with his relative Anat Schwartz. What the fuck

Adam Sella has zero reporting experience and expertise in general and specifically on the topic of sexual violence. Literally none. He just graduated from college. He writes about cooking. He's a wannabe Bourdain, and the NYT made him one of their lead "reporters" overnight. WTF

but it's much worse than that. And this is why the NYT desperately wants to scapegoat Anat Schwartz. She made public and explicit her and Adam Sella's intentions: They set out to fabricate atrocity propaganda "because it is important for Israel":

this is like a bad comedy movie. Two totally unexperienced randos who no one has ever heard of, and who are related to one another, team up to travel around Israel to concoct the biggest hoax in the New York Times' history since Judith Miller. And it worked. They got published

and we know that at least one of them also served in Israeli military intelligence (). And then you get Jeffrey Gettleman, the Pulitzer-prize winner, to take the hoax fabricated by this absurd duo, writes it up, and says "I don't do evidence, I do stories."

this isn't just about Anat Schwartz. That's what the NYT desperately wants it to be about. Just focus on her social media etiquette, we'll maybe even cut her loose, but we'll keep the hoaxes Adam Sella, Jeffrey Gettleman and Anat Schwartz collaboratively fabricated in place

no, that's not how it works. You can't just hire a random fucking food writer straight out of college, who then does the core "reporting" with his relative, both with zero experience and explicitly admitting they set out to do propaganda, and keep it up

there is only one thing the New York Times must do immediately, and every day it doesn't it further destroys its reputation: Fire Adam Sella, Jeffrey Gettleman and Anat Schwartz, retract their hoax articles, and profusely apologize for the damage you did. That's the bare minimum

btw just as an aside, can you imagine the New York Times hiring a Palestinian version of Adam Sella or Anat Schwartz to be their lead writer on Israel? Just a rando straight out of college, zero experience, focused on cooking, interior design. Hey, you're now our main expert.

you can't imagine it. And it's not just Palestinians. Anyone with a Muslim background. That's not hypothetical. That has actually happened. The New York Times has warned and told people that they cannot report about Israel/Palestine because they can't be "neutral and objective"

you're Palestinian? Decades of reporting experience? Awards? Expertise on the subject? No, sorry, you can't possibly be objective. We at the New York Times have standards.

Read our latest groundbreaking reporting by this recently graduated food writer and his rando uncle's wife

oh and his uncle's wife served in Israeli military intelligence, both have made public that they intentionally set out to fabricate propaganda "because it's important for Israel" and they're of course committed Zionists who believe Palestinians are sub-human. It's groundbreaking!

it's so unbelievably absurd. Just try to imagine it. You apply for the New York Times' spot to be one of their lead "reporters" on the subject of sexual violence. "What is your experience and expertise?", they ask. You say: "I've written a bit on food and cooking."

Hired.

it's unfathomable how blatantly irresponsible and shameless and depraved the New York Times editors who commissioned and oversaw all this are. The Israeli regime is right now citing this grotesque hoax in their UN reports. Retract it immediately and fire them you shameless ghouls

but wait, it gets more insane. The New York Times allowed Adam Sella just last week, after the original hoax he co-wrote with his uncle's wife and Jeffrey Gettleman was widely debunked months ago, to write up a piece by himself, to launder his own hoax via an Israeli regime front

this report, which the Israel regime submitted to the UN under the innocuous name of "Crisis-Rape Group", repeats verbatim the debunked claims Adam Sella himself fabricated, detailed in the thread below

HE IS LAUNDERING HIS OWN HOAX ON THE NYT FRONT PAGE

the New York Time has given free rein to a recently graduated comparative literature college student and aspiring food writer to not just fabricate a genocidal atrocity propaganda hoax, but then to keep laundering it after it was debunked. This is fucking insane. WHAT THE FUCK

if you work at the New York Times and you're reading this you must be embarrassed beyond belief, right? You see how monumentally fucked up this is, right? It's not just an insult to basic journalistic integrity and ethics, it's an insult to your own professional honor and dignity

I can't imagine just accepting this. I would be too ashamed to look at myself in the mirror. It doesn't just severely damage the reputation of the New York Times, it damages journalism as a profession. It damages you, directly. This is not normal, and you know it. Do something.

for the original debunking of the atrocity propaganda hoax Adam Sella, Anat Schwartz and Jeffrey Gettleman intentionally fabricated:
