The <i>New York Times</i> is one of the world's leading newspapers. It is regarded as a 'journal of record.' For more than 120 years it has been shaping American opinion. Jerold S Auerbach argues convincingly that, as far as Zionism and Israel are concerned, the paper has consistently been far from objective in its editorial policy, has fallen short of its own high standards, and has consequently failed in its journalistic obligations to the public." --Neville Teller, <i>The Jerusalem Report</i></p>--Neville Teller "The Jerusalem Report"<br><br><p>"Jerold Auerbach's archly titled new study <i>Print to Fit: The New York Times, Zionism and Israel, 1896-2016</i> is a well-researched and, for the most part, damning brief of the Times's news coverage and editorial attitudes toward Zionism and Israel for over a century. ... <i>Print to Fit</i> was written well before the Jew-dog cartoon scandal, but it does answer the question about it with which this review began: How could such an image make it to the pages of an edition of the <i>New York Times</i>?" --Deborah E. Lipstadt, the <i>Jewish Review of Books</i></p>-- "Jewish Review of Books"<br><br><p>"There is no denying the basic truth of Jerold Auerbach's book, which is that the Times has had a fundamental antagonism to Zionism and to Israel from its beginning until this day. His title says it all: instead of printing all the news that is fit to print--as it says so proudly on its front page every day--the Times has often printed the news that fits its ideology." --Jack Reimer, <i>The Jewish Advocate</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Jerold S.
