On Monday, Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon announced that The New York Times had agreed to drop its arguably defamatory attack on the Babylon Bee after the Bee sent multiple demand letters threatening a defamation lawsuit. Under the guise of reporting, the Times claimed that the Bee “frequently trafficked in misinformation under the guise of satire.” While the Times originally agreed to weaken the attack somewhat, its updated story still suggested that the Bee is one of the “far-right misinformation sites that used ‘satire’ claims to protect their presence on [Facebook].”

Good for the Babylon Bee. Anyone can see it is satire. When will someone start calling ‘The Onion’ a far left misinformation site? Lol

NYT has been caught in so much misinformation they should take a look at themselves. Unfortunately, no satire there.

Anything that effectively skewers illogoc is "far-right misinformation". We are asked to believe so many ridiculous things today (I will not list them, they are not hard to see) that the Bee borders on reality and the NYT on satire.

We live in an age of irony, and this is one example. I'm glad the Bee stuck to its guns. The NYT is a disgrace.
