history if not all of new york history.nd for the mayor in the city of new york. maybe he's deeply concerned about the migrant crisis and maybe he's deeply concerned that we lead so many potential terrorists across the border that new york is vulnerable. other than that i cannot make sense of how you would lead with 9/11 as your reflection on the year of the state of new york city. maria: it is odd he would bring in 9/11 as if it's something that happens all the time this was the worst terrorist attack we ever experienced in many are there and we lost loved ones is it not sensitive to any of that. >> is mind blowing is not sensitive to any of the. it would be one thing if he clearly misspoken, the line of reasoning and what he's trying to say makes no sense. maybe it is top of mind for some reason at this moment but it certainly should not be conducted why this is the greatest city on earth, there is a lot of reasons why new york city is one of the greatest cities on earth. it's lots of reasons why it's a complicated city b

they _ new york times? that is what the complaint alleges. they were - new york times?mes? that is what the i complaint alleges. they were able to find examples of how the model verbatim fed back exact articles that were hidden behind the pay wall of the new york times. and so they say this hurts their business and it hurts their business, it hurts their ability to keep democracy alive by producing independentjournalism. because presumably people would subscribe to the new york times website for the archive was yellow while according to the complaint 10 million subscribers are currently paying for that privilege to be able to search the archive and the times is producing again according to the complaint 250 original articles every single day. they say in order to be able to keep their business going they need to be able to maintain, well, control over their copyrighted material. so when you in a request chatgpt does it regurgitate verbatim what it has great from the new york times website or does it give you a synopsis of what it has read? well, any schoolchild _ synops

and so new york city's constantly evolving. they weren't trying to build in the gilded age architecture of antiquity. it was for them. this was contemporary and so every fence always being changed and added to. and so i kind of it's a contentious of argument to get involved with how you should do how you should do in addition to a museum, a lot of don't like what was done to the morgan i, i actually don't mind because i think it actually the morgan was a collection of various buildings that weren't connected of various styles. and i think what was done by renzo piano actually kind of helps bring them all together into a, into a cohesive home. so we'll see what happens with what they end up doing at the frick. it's been a while and i think it's slated to be open next year. so you come back here. you are so engaging. why, thank you. i would love to know how you got interested in this and how. see, because of your enthusiasm and knowledge, what you're with us can help better convince people to appreciate this because yours here in

new york city should sue saying new york city is already in crisis dealing with a post-covid economy vacancies, crime, homelessness, migration in budget deficits, it cannot afford to pay the estimated 12 million in migrant care. he continues on the next page the city is the economic engine for the state and region. if the big apple falters, the consequences will be devastated, finally, culminating in the feds and the state also migrants who are overconcentrated in one very dense city packed in modern-day welfare hotels in ten cities, your reaction? >> this becomes the question has new york and los angeles and chicago and san francisco all put themselves in the target for everybody coming in because they are, quote, sanctuary cities. this is really become the debate and there is a custom and practice and i'm not sure, not a state law, it's a city which says if you show up to new york you are going to be sheltered, you are going to be given aid and what happened is nobody really expected that to be -- come into effect but yet what this migrant crisis is showing that the folks that are

, the modern day new york times. yeah, you described the paper at one point as a muscle bound company that held on to its dedication to tradition, at the cost of being slow to change. i think you do sort of used the words institutionally conservative at one point to describe the times and i guess that was something that sort of jumped out at me from a lot of the the stories that you tell, you know, that is a paper that does change a lot over the course of the period that you've written about. but often has to kind of follow the example of other news organizations in the example of adapting to the internet or or in some other ways be dragged kicking and screaming a little bit. and obviously one area where where the institutional conservative ism is particularly acute that you write about is, you know, in the times is in both internal diversity within the newsroom and then also, you know, coverage of a different communities. you write, for example, about woeful shortcomings in the paper's coverage of the aids crisis fo

in new york the county organization is probably -- not only new york but the country. they put everything, not just the congressional seat, but county executive, district attorney. i think in special election certainly they can hold on. the question is when governor hochul's attempt to redraw the lines to tilt the scale to give democrats an advantage in next year's election, depending how that shakes out is a different story. certainly in a special election i believe we can hold on to this seat. i have faith in nassau organization. at the end of the day it's up to the voters. it's up to the voters on whether republicans hold this seat. but certainly just to keep somebody here who is in the inconstitution and did these wrong things because we wanted that extra vote, that's not the right thing. we need to vote our conscience and our constituents. but also it was a matter of right and wrong in this situation. it was the right thing to remove somebody that did a lot of wrong things. >> how will the vetting process -- >> that's something that we have expressed with these co
