Disaster NYT Editor: “Just Because You Killed Bin Laden Doesn’t Mean You’re Not a P***Y” - Another journo assmad


Uhhhh — Yeah, one of them said that on Twitter. And it was deleted not too long after.

But in between, the following exchange was overheard by a NYT staffer who was reviewing the latest notes sent by Andrew Weissmann for Adam Goldman to include in his next story:

NYT Colleague : “Do you realize you just told the Navy SEAL who killed Bin Laden he’s a p***y and that he hasn’t sacrificed enough for his country?”

Dan Saltzstein: “No I didn’t. I told some selfish moron named Robert O’Neill he was a p***ssy and he should put his mask on and sacrifice a a little comfort for his country.”

NYT Colleague: “Is there someplace you can stay tonight so no on will know where you are? We’ll see about getting you a fake passport tomorrow to get you out of the country. Maybe we can get you a shack belonging to Carlos in Apatzigan.”

Dan Saltzstein: [Googling] “OH MY GOD, what have I done? I’ll call Ben Rhodes, he’ll know what to do. Maybe he can get me into Iran. He’s got the home numbers of all the Mullahs.”

Yeah — Dan Saltztein, Deputy Editor of the NYT, called retired Navy SEAL Robert O’Niell, who killed Bin Laden, a “p***y”, and said he should wear a mask during his plane flight because he hadn’t sacrificed enough for his country.

O’Neill put up a picture of himself on Twitter, on his own account, seated on an airplane and not wearing a mask. Under the picture he wrote “I’m not a p***y”. That Tweet was later deleted — O’Neill said his wife, who was with him on the flight, saw it and deleted it on his account.

But before she did so, Saltzstein saw O’Neill’s Tweet, and in “All-World” face-plant fashion he Tweeted this reply:

So, using my extensive linguistic training in deciphering exchanges of comments and information between parties communicating by wire or electronic device, after careful analysis of the statement and response, I’ve deduced the following from the information provided:

O’Neill makes an affirmative declarative statement: “I’m not a p***y.”

Saltzstein’s response includes the phrase “…you might just be…”.

My Conclusion: Saltzstein called O’Neill a “p***y”.

Prior to leaving for the airport to catch Carlos Slim’s private jet to Michoacan, Saltzstein deleted his original tweet about O’Neill and sent out the following message:

Yeah — it was all about violating your own private rule, and you actually “honor” O’Neill rather than think he’s a “p***y”. Not because the Tweet revealed you to be clueless moron — well, you were the Travel Editor of the NYT once, so you got that going for you.

O’Neill’s basic bio is probably pretty well understood – or maybe not understood at all. But he’s not a guy who just put in a few years, had a moment of brilliance and then got out to fame and glory.

O’Neill joined the Navy right out of high school in 1995. He grew up in Montana, where he learned to shoot at a young age. Originally he wanted to join the Marines as a sniper, but a Navy recruiter (the Marine recruiter was out to lunch) convinced him he could be a sniper as a Navy SEAL.

After going through SEAL team selection and training, he was assigned to SEAL Team 2 in Virginia Beach, Virginia, in 1997. In 2001 he moved to SEAL Team 4, where he remained until 2004. At that point he joined SEAL Team 6 — formally known as DEVGRU, where assignment comes only by way of invitation. Candidates for selection undergo a completely new series of tests and screenings, and must have already been deployed on operational assignments — no rookie SEALs on DEVGRU. It is, for lack of a better description, the SEAL All-Star team.

O’Neill departed the Navy in 2012 after 16 years of service — short of the time necessary for a full military pension. But he spent 15 of those years on SEAL teams, and reportedly engaged in more than 400 missions all over the world. He left the Navy as an E-8 — Senior Chief Petty Officer. While I’m sure SEALs get supplemental pay by virtue of their assignment, the standard pay range for an E-8 non-commissioned officer is $53,000 to $76,000.

I wonder what the pay range is or a Deputy Editor of the NYT? Regardless, I’m sure that will go further for him in Mexico than it does in New York.

But I hope Slim’s jet doesn’t have Netflix — or at least not the final episode of Season 3 of “OZARK.”

Dan – it’s just a TV show. Carlos isn’t really like that.

Rob O'Neill seems like a douchebag, but I'd side with him over some Journalist™️ any day.
 
Imagine this: It’s 3 am on a tuesday, you’re fast asleep next to your beautiful wife and your children are sleeping soundly in the other room. Suddenly you get a call that boils down to “WAKE THE FUCK UP NIGGER ITS OSAMA KILLING TIME” and within 12 hours or so you and your unit of the most highly trained soldiers in the country are on the guy who did 9/11s doorstep. Adrenaline pumping, you and the boys bust down the door and you put a round in that camel fuckers forehead. Your country has been avenged.

Then a decade or so later some NYT jew who’s never done anything that could be classified as brave or courageous calls you a pussy LMAO
 
Look, if Covid wasn’t so easily spread, I would be entirely fine with people choosing to roll the dice on catching it themselves. The problem with people not complying with such measures as we have to reduce spread - such as masks - is that you can, quite innocently and unknowingly, spread it to a bunch of other folks before you realise you yourself are sick.

The masks are for the protection of others, not yourself.

Im totally in favor of wearing a mask because i like to accommodate people and its not much of an issue for me personally. The problem lies in that it start with a mask, then lockdown, then what? We start literally nailing shut doors like in china? People have personal responsibility. This mean a responsibility to themselves. If you are at risk, stay the fuck home and let others works and enjoy live. Thats not THEIR responsibility to make YOU safe.

The social contract that is called civilization and government is a fine balance that must be respected or it becomes oppressive. If you delegate all your responsibility to the government, then that government will necessitate more power and more monopoly on violence to enforce its responsibility. Let people make decision for themselves.

And before someone claim im a doomer and slippery slope is a falacy, we literally went in like 2 decades from normalizing gay marriage to the fiasco that LGBTQ has become. Within another decade pedophilia is gonna become normalized. There are ways to protect from a pandemic (thats been way overblown) that does not necessitate drastic measures like shutting down the economy and sadly this shit start at forcing people to wear mask.

See, you and I have just exchanged our opposing views on this in a totally respectful and thoughtful way.

Which is what this NYT clown should have done with a military hero of his country, instead of this Twitter mindset of trying to find a GOTCHAAAAA in 280 characters.

You can’t have a meaningful reasoned opinion about anything in 280 characters, so essentially the Twitterati have abandoned reasoned opinions in favour of shrieking catchy sound bites into the ether. It is a cancerous change in our shared public discourse.
 
This is the guy who called him a pussy

Plot twist, he catches coronavirus.
Further plot twist, he feels tired for a few days and gets over it.
Hey! I'll have you know there is a 0.005% someone young and healthy could die from this thing!
Its basically a death sentence.
Plus, there is no proof that this virus DOESN'T have magical powers that other Coronaviruses don't. We just dont know!
 
Americans are using masks much like an African tribesman uses modern tools. You can explain that this hoe is the key to quicker crop planting, but instead of using it he'll use it as a ceremonial staff of authority as he watches people digging by hand. He doesn't understand HOW to use the thing properly, nor does he have any interest.

It's merely a magical, spiritual totem who's possession prevents calamity.

They say "masks are vital" but have no info on what materials are needed, care in wearing, rotation over time, sanitation, aseptic handling technique, or appropriate use. You end up with a nation of pious witchcraft believers dangling them over their triple chins and huffing and puffing away like usual. So yes, largely in effect, it is theater. (not to mention the CDC explicitly told citizens NOT to wear masks, trying to alleviate their short sighted planning. Great move, backtracking on shit so quickly)

I'm in heaven though, wherever I go I can finally be completely faceless without worrying about people thinking I'm robbing them.

I didn't know they could stack soy that high.

He looks like someone just told him that not only is his wife's bull going to anally master him, but she bought a big dog to get in on the action too.

I mean, this motherfucker looks exactly like I expect a journalist to look.

Weak, soft, pampered, and made of vaginal secretions left behind on panty liners left in a bus station bathroom.
 
>Calling someone a pussy for not wearing a mask
That makes no sense. Wouldn't you be less of a pussy for not wearing a mask because you're telling CoronaChan to go fuck herself by taking on the "airborn" virus head-on? By wearing a mask, you are technically afraid of breathing in something.
Masks don't actually protect you, they protect others from your germs, that's the going logic. This fool must have thought the guy was legitimately afraid of being suffocated by the mask or some shit, or just mindlessly flung the insult he thought would work on him.
