To Our Readers, From the Publisher and Executive Editor
NOVEMBER 13, 2016
When the biggest political story of the year reached a dramatic and unexpected climax late Tuesday night, our newsroom turned on a dime and did what it has done for nearly two years — cover the 2016 election with agility and creativity.

After such an erratic and unpredictable election there are inevitable questions: Did Donald Trump’s sheer unconventionality lead us and other news outlets to underestimate his support among American voters? What forces and strains in America drove this divisive election and outcome? Most important, how will a president who remains a largely enigmatic figure actually govern when he takes office?

As we reflect on the momentous result, and the months of reporting and polling that preceded it, we aim to rededicate ourselves to the fundamental mission of Times journalism. That is to report America and the world honestly, without fear or favor, striving always to understand and reflect all political perspectives and life experiences in the stories that we bring to you. It is also to hold power to account, impartially and unflinchingly. You can rely on The New York Times to bring the same fairness, the same level of scrutiny, the same independence to our coverage of the new president and his team.

We cannot deliver the independent, original journalism for which we are known without the loyalty of our readers. We want to take this opportunity, on behalf of all Times journalists, to thank you for that loyalty.

Sincerely,

Arthur Sulzberger Jr., publisher

Dean Baquet, executive editor

Fuck this. How many times has the United States' self proclaimed newspaper of record had to "rededicate" itself to honest reporting in just the last 10 years?

People are still looking for stories to prove how bad our current print and TV media are? They suck. All of them.

Ignore the NY Times. Problem solved.

This is good in theory, but all this "we must explore this Other America and seek to understand them" crap is just gonna result in, like, Jill Filipovic writing a book called The United States of Pepe and it's just 200 pages of housebound teenage boys owning her on Twitter. "Well, we did our part."

No no. The media is cool. They just told us they were. It's all good.
