Social Media Guidelines for the Times Newsroom

For those who do not have the context, senior figures at The Times were caught on camera talking about ties to people associated with the Democrat Party and talking about working closely with an individual at YouTube to favorably curate their front page. This individual also discussed a close personal relationship with former FBI Director James Comey.

If you want to watch the videos for yourself, look up "Project Veritas", and you can see the footage that likely prompted this post.

I doubt that that undercover string precipitated this policy, which no doubt took longer than a week to formulate. For starters, the thing you mentioned was chat taped during an undercover sting, of which social media guidelines would not govern.
