Journalistic malpractice by omission @nytimes (Third Way edition)

 
Third Way prepares to throw away money in the general election just like AIPAC did in the primary.

Headline:  New York Times, 8/6/2026

“We are preparing for the next war that is coming,” said Jonathan Cowan, the president of Third Way, a leading centrist Democratic group, revealing to The New York Times a new $15 million effort between now and 2028 to discredit democratic socialism.

According to the Boston Globe:
As a 501(c)(4) social welfare organization and its sister 501(c)(3) think tank (the Third Way Institute), the group operates largely as a "dark money" nonprofit and does not publicly disclose its full donor list. However, investigative journalism, tax filings, and corporate disclosures have revealed that Third Way is primarily backed by Wall Street executives, billionaire philanthropic foundations, corporate lobbying firms, and tech leaders[emphasis added]

More like Democratic fat cats.

Not a peep from Shane about this.
