You believe the right wing op ed writers at the times could ever get fired for their opinions? Bari Weiss was making mid 6 figures posting trash on the NYT before she accused her employer of discrimination to jump start coverage of her new substack.
Everyone is biased, it’s how the brain operates. Some biases try to reflect reality while others try to manipulate people to believe propaganda. The Times is perfectly fine employing propagandists.
I read it and liked it as a teen back in the 90s. The book is a fantasy that portrays capitalism as a benevolent force that helps all who follow a few simple habits. Its an interesting look at American history, but are people still recommending it today?
