One could have dismissed it as a joke, but these statements are also emblematic of the deep, systemic racism rampant in journalism out there; it cannot even see the horrific lens of neo-colonialism and Hinduophobia through which it views and judges India.
But let's move beyond rhetoric and look at the @nytimes' actual coverage.
So far, more than two years on, neither the NY Times nor its apologists, like @oneillyatescbc, have responded, much less rebutted this analysis of the NYT's coverage of India.

Or leave aside the NYT's track record of racist and Hinduphobic coverage of India for a moment.
Even its domestic coverage is highly partisan, intolerant of dissenting voices, condemning dissenters with anti-Semitic slurs.

 When Rajendra Prasad died in 1963, Jawaharlal Nehru wrote to President Radhakrishnan expressing his inability to attend Rajendra Prasad’s funeral in Patna. Nehru counselled Radhakrishnan not to go to Patna.
Dr. S. Radhakrishnan ignored the advice and went.

 Lady Edwina Mountbatten died in 1960 and was buried at sea. Nehru had the Indian Navy frigate INS Trishul escort the HMS Wakeful and cast a wreath.
