Tom Gross's video: NYT columnist Bret Stephens on the role direction of the NY Times in conversation with Tom Gross

This is an extract from a longer conservation with Bret Stephens here: https://youtu.be/SkiWXs9AUWk Bret Stephens, a Pulitzer Prize winning columnist for the New York Times and before that the Wall Street Journal, talks about his upbringing in Mexico, his family background in Europe, and becoming a journalist. Bret and Tom Gross discuss America’s place in the world, the ongoing ‘culture wars’ in the US, the pitfalls of Donald Trump’s presidency (but whether it is dangerous for some to suggest he’s a ‘fascist’ or ‘Nazi’), what Trump has got wrong but what he may have got right regarding China, the Mideast and the Balkans, and Bret’s own role at the New York Times, and the Times’ role in the world.
