The New York Post is a disreputable Murdoch newspaper, and does not justify the extraordinary claims with extraordinary evidence. I couldn't use the Post in high school newspaper citations.

It does certainly verge on being a tabloid at times.
While I don’t know that it’s a reputable source, neither is the NYT, or public health for that matter, when it comes to matters with clear elements of race. When you sign an open letter saying that police violence is as much a public health threat to Blacks as the pandemic, you’ve lost all credibility. I don’t know that we even posses the capacity to know the truth anymore.

I don’t think any daily mainstream publication right now has any bankable reputation. They have all had major omissions and errors or outright falsehoods in the last few years. So, singling out the NY Post, is only going half way. They all are guilty of pushing agendas with questionable supporting arguments.

Regardless of the source, the arguments seem pretty convincing. The politics are thick, but the facts still seem to speak for themselves. Does anyone have a solid point-by-point refutation? Preferably NOT in the form of a podcast?
