She's not the only taste maker, amirite?

defenestration — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 04:22:03 -0800

NYT linked MeFi in their article "A Foodie With a Taste for the Surreal." It's about Thu Tran and Food Party, her brainchild. She's getting a show on IFC. [MeFi discussion] Following its arrival in New York, “Food Party” garnered endorsements from Web sites like metafilter.com and the Grub Street blog of New York magazine (nymag.com/daily/food), eventually attracting the attention of executives at IFC.

Down With DaShiv! Long Live DaShiv!

Dashiv is in town and the celebration has not ceased.

All hail DaShiv.

epimorph — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 22:28:54 -0800

NY Times: "DaShiv is a star, an internationally famous portrait photographer". The article also mentions ThePinkSuperhero and some guy named Matthew Haughey.

"All-Stars of the Clever Riposte"

MeFi's own " All-Stars of the Clever Riposte"

I come not to praise Caesar

mwhybark — Sat, 30 Jun 2007 21:54:43 -0800

NYT Mag on Wikipedia as Breaking News Source. Three years ago, MeFi was the place this stuff went down, in my web at any rate. I miss it, and prefer MetaFilter's style of developing breaking news to Wikipedia's. But I understand the orientation that led Matt away from it, and God knows it's more efficient than reading through an entire thread in the blue to figure out where things stand as of the time you loaded the page. Posting this here seems more in tune than in the blue, yes?

New York Times mention of Metafilter

xammerboy — Tue, 20 Feb 2007 20:26:53 -0800

The New York Times bases an article almost entirely on a Metafilter thread.

Mathowie now a member of the "Gray Lady"?

jourman2 — Wed, 14 Feb 2007 19:59:03 -0800

It seems our fearless leader has a little New York Times thing going on in tommorow's paper. Unless there's another Matthew Haughey who writes tech stuff.

NYT abortion article causes MeFi uproar, is largely retracted

jfuller — Tue, 02 Jan 2007 12:33:10 -0800

This New York Times article generated voluminous ranting in the blue in this thread. Critical portions of the article have been revealed as being rather, uh, Rathergate-ish and have been retracted by the Times.

The NYT quotes from Askme

ottereroticist — Wed, 06 Sep 2006 22:50:08 -0800

“So I snooped through his computer and found e-mails confirming that he’d dated and slept with at least one other girl”

Are we not supposed to talk about i/p?

delmoi — Sat, 10 Jun 2006 08:44:09 -0800

So are we not supposed to talk about Israel/Palestine at all now? this post was deleted, apparently because it was about the Israel/Palestine situation. It's a fairly straight-forward post to an NYT article. Is all news about the situation verboten or what?

NYT quoting MeFi without attribution

Slothrop — Thu, 25 May 2006 08:02:05 -0800

If anyone is interested, The New York Times is quoting Metafilter without attribution. They've got a story about young employees and blogging about work, and they've lifted some of Jessa Werner's comments in the FPP about her situation. Article here (it's on the second page).

NYT Viswanathan article mentions MeFi

ericb — Mon, 01 May 2006 08:29:26 -0800

MetaFilter cited in New York Times' article about Kaavya Viswanathan.

User Mentioned in NYT

Metafilter member Hoder, or as Laura Rozen puts it, the Iranian blog godfather, has an op-ed in the New York Times today: Democracy's Double Standard. Let's hear it for Hoder.

New York Times mention in article on Abramoff scandal

mediareport — Mon, 23 Jan 2006 19:29:14 -0800

Metafilter mention and a quote from Matt in today's NYT article about comments at blogs in the wake of the Washington Post/Abramoff/comments episode.

#1 reviews a browser and a picture frame in today's New York Times.

The NYT has given MeFi partial credit for popularizing Pac-Mondrian.

Fourmyle — Tue, 28 Dec 2004 09:48:36 -0800

Tired of links to the NY Times on Metafilter? Then perhaps you'll enjoy this Gray Lady link to Metafilter here on the gray. They've given MeFi partial credit for popularizing Pac-Mondrian (even though ifjuly's link only got six comments.) [via Slashdot Games.]

Crafting Good Posts Part XXMCIV: labelling

scarabic — Tue, 30 Nov 2004 21:59:46 -0800

Crafting Good Posts Part XXMCIV: labelling. Things to note when making a post: [QuickTime] = "this link has quicktime movie content," [NSFW] = "you may want to view this discretely," [NYT] = "this link requires a New York Times registration..."

What else do you wanna know up front? Let's go over it for our neoFites.

NYT quotes AskMe - I think

Prospero — Thu, 05 Feb 2004 06:02:08 -0800

Hey, doesn't the following quote from this article in today's NYT (reg. req., etc.) come from MeFi? Or AskMe? Searching isn't doing it for me.

"I like a lot of the names I see on spam e-mails because they're completely abstract, with little conception of culture or traditional sounds," said a posting by someone using the name Oissubke, a self-described fiction writer. "They jump out. They're memorable. They may not work for Grisham or Shakespeare, but they're ideal for my own writing style."

No more NYT posts, please!

woil — Fri, 05 Sep 2003 17:29:37 -0800

After the n^th post to a new york times (nytimes.com) site that requires a subscription, which was easily circumvented via searching google news for 3 of the words in the quoted article text from the post, I'm wondering if we can do anything programmatically to solve this. Perhaps search through the posted links, and if nytimes comes up without a partner section of the link, put a small note in red on the preview screen. Or at least add this and the comments we've previously made about posting to low bandwidth sites to the posting guidelines.

MeFi in NYT

walrus — Mon, 30 Jun 2003 06:21:59 -0800

MeFi gets a brief (inaccurate) mention in the Times article the (not so) secret diary of a blogger today. "Any of the 171,151 members can nominate a link, but only those voted good enough by the others make it to the front page". Still, at least the author of the piece got his own weblog as part of the research.

Metafilter referred to in the New York Times (again)

For those of you who keep track of this sort of thing: another Mefi reference in today's NYT - page 2 (registration required)

I don't know about you but it looks like the New York Times got wise to the NYT Random Login Generator which mr_crash_davis hipped us all to back in April. All of a sudden I got a log in prompt when I clicked on an article and all I'm getting now is an error message when I try to log on with it. And you?.

"A New Book Scratches At A Weblog Wound" (NYT)

rschram — Sun, 09 Jun 2002 21:56:33 -0800

(NYT) A New Book Scratches At A Weblog Wound
Should Bookblog, a project to collect 9/11-related blog entries (e.g. opinion on WoT events, not day-of reactions), exclude those veteran webloggers. Jason Kottke and others say no. I suppose I could have read a response on the Op-Ed page, but Ariel Sharon sent one in that week too. More here

What should be done to separate rational differences of opinion from hateful propaganda?

semmi — Sun, 12 May 2002 13:19:45 -0800

According to Friedman of NYT, "thanks to the Internet and satellite TV, the world is being wired together technologically, but not socially, politically or culturally. We are now seeing and hearing one another faster and better, but with no corresponding improvement in our ability to learn from, or understand, one another. So integration, at this stage, is producing more anger than anything else. As the writer George Packer recently noted in The Times Magazine, 'In some ways, global satellite TV and Internet access have actually made the world a less understanding, less tolerant place.'" In some ways, I tend to agree. What can be done? What should be done to separate rational differences of opinion from hateful propaganda?
