“Auerbach subjects the New York Times to a meticulouslyresearched analysis of its attitude over the years 1896 to 2016 towards Zionismand Israel. … Print to Fit leads the reader through Israel’s story alongan unfamiliar route. The New York Times is one of the world’s leadingnewspapers. It is regarded as a ‘journal of record.’ For more than 120 years ithas been shaping American opinion. Jerold S Auerbach argues convincingly that,as far as Zionism and Israel are concerned, the paper has consistently been farfrom objective in its editorial policy, has fallen short of its own highstandards, and has consequently failed in its journalistic obligations to thepublic.” —Neville Teller, The Jerusalem Report
