Feuds

Yankees / Red Sox meets NY Post / NY Times

Consider this FOX Sports article, "NY Times in middle of Sox-Yankees Feud."

The NY Times ran an editorial criticizing the Yankees, who want to build a new Yankee Stadium and have asked for public funding. The article goes on to say that as pointed out in the NY Post, a paper that loves to belittle the NY Times, the Times does not cite the fact that they are part owners of the Red Sox, who would be hurt by a new stadium due to increased revenue for the Yankees.

Of course, the article is posted on FOX Sports, who is also owned by the same company as the NY Post (News Corp), and no, the article does not cite any possible conflict of interest.
