Bill de Blasio Slams NY Times Coverage Of Mamdani

In this ‘Mehdi Unfiltered’ interview, Mehdi speaks with Bill de Blasio, the former Democratic mayor of New York City, about the negative and “insane” media coverage of his party’s mayoral primary winner, Zohran Mamdani. “I think there’s just a profound elitism and disconnect from the life of the city that’s pervading the editorial board at the Times,” de Blasio says. In the lead up to the New York City Democratic mayoral primary, the New York Times editorial board refused to endorse democratic socialist candidate, and eventual landslide winner, Zohran Mamdani. The Times said he did not deserve a spot on New Yorkers’ ballots and even suggested former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo would be better for the city’s future. In the wake of Mamdani’s primary victory, the Times ran a ridiculous piece about the candidate’s college application, based on hacked documents provided to them by a far-right source. De Blasio: “I thought it showed basically a neoconservative bent that has become more and more evident in the Times editorial board” De Blasio also defends Mamdani from criticisms of antisemitism, stating plainly that “he is not an antisemite,” and describes his progressive policy agenda as “perfectly viable.” De Blasio: “I think he has been put in the same box I was put in, but with Islamophobia added on top and fear of someone who calls themselves a socialist” Watch to hear more of what he had to say about the Democrats, whether he has officially endorsed Mamdani for mayor, his thoughts on Trump’s threat to deport Mamdani, and whether he would consider running for political office again.
