Courant is effectively and officially a rag, now

It's very sad to see a Pulitzer-prize winning, two-century old newspaper turn into a dish rag, but the firing of the paper's consumer reporter for being an effective consumer reporter means that this has come to pass.

The bottom line is that after several days the newspaper has not credibly refuted the columnists charges, leading any neutral observer to conclude that the charge is essentially and substantially true.

Placing a marketing person in charge of the newsroom is a blunder of the first order. Sad.
