Arthur Gregg Sulzberger, publisher of New York Times, hits back at accusations of treason by US President Donald Trump
Writing in the Wall Street Journal and not his own newspaper, Arthur Sulzberger warned there was"no more serious charge a commander in chief can make against an independent news organization".
"He’s gone from misrepresenting our business, to assaulting our integrity, to demonizing our journalists," the publisher wrote. "Now the president has escalated his attacks even further, accusing the Times of a crime so grave it is punishable by death." The action is intended partly as a warning, but also to leave the US poised to conduct cyber strikes in the event of a major conflict between the US and Russia, the newspaper report said.
