Dozens of writer, critics, production staff and editors tweeted the same message in a show of anger and unity:"Running this puts Black @NYTimes staff in danger."newsroom is in open rebellion over an op-ed the newspaper's opinion section published Wednesday that called for the army to be deployed into American cities to crush nationwide protests over police brutality and systemic racism.
In reaction to the op-ed, written by Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton and titled "Send in the Troops," dozens of staffers began tweeting out the same message on Twitter Wednesday evening in an open show of anger and solidarity. The message, which contained a picture of the op-ed headline along with the caption "Running this puts Black @NYTimes staff in danger," has gone viral and has been co-opted by journalists at other publications and freelancers as well as other Twitter users.
they lost more subscribers in one day then ever before. I ain't going back. Maggie can kiss all my 🍑
It's better we know what Cotton thinks because he will be running for president one day. A very dangerous and evil person.
It was awful! Stupid Old White Man speaking.👿
So dig up his sleletons and bomb the hell of of him with facts
You'll never see a red-carpeted platform giving to a Lilly livered libs on alternative media. This is why MSM gets trashed and also putting their journalists in peril on the field...
It therefore has become a totalitarian media. Shame on the freedom killer anarcho-socialist « journalists »!
Here lies the once free press. Put to death by militant unrest. Snowflakes all, what a mess. Freedoms gone, but the don’t care, Honest debate they cannot bare
new york times total trash
A pretense to airing alternate views, in reality giving it oxygen.
Good to see the NYT has come out and shown how partisan and one sided they are. No room for other views in the 'free press'. I admire the honesty of this biased 'journalists '
The Left is collapsing before our eyes. They’ve hit the self-destruction button

Yeah think we were all a little surprised with that one.
I don't agree with the op-ed at all, but free speech is not confined to speech you find acceptable but not that from others you disagree with. That is the problem today. Nobody is willing to listen to the other side of an issue.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That would be like declaring war do we need anymore chaos as a nation? No. I once had dreams to be a writer or editor for the Times. Not anymore....
Email the editor (james.bennetnytimes.com) and demand his resignation.
God forbid there is a difference of opinion printed! What will happen NYT please do not kowtow to people afraid to publish an opinion.
While I completely disagree with the notion or concept of any sovereign nation ever turning its own military against its citizenry I do think we as a civil society can hear opposing viewpoints. As insane as it may be. It shows that we are more tolerant and just how crazy they are
They should fire every single person that has a problem with it. It's what the majority of the country wants.
It's a misquote. He said send in the clowns, a reference to his favorite song.
THE CYCLE NEVER CHANGES - VIOLENCE DOESN'T MATTER - PEACEFUL MATTERS ITS THE ONLY KEY AND MARTIN LUTHER KING BELIEVED IN IT WHICH PROPELLED HIM BEYOND HIS TIME Like all other visionary leaders Its your moment to protest if need be peacefully for your key to change - Be a key man
No. I agree. Let the blue cities burn. They voted blue in the cities. They got their blue wave. Now ride the wave baby!!
Good.
Surprising there has not been a lot more unrest. 30 million suddenly unemployed in the USA (and how many in the world?) hope folk get outraged at economic system that throws them onto the scrap heap mere weeks after a crisis. If it’s so weak then we need a better system!
The Park Slope Paper of deanbaquet, cliffordlevy and billdeblasio pal benyt needs an open rebellion every few years.
