January 1, New York Times Blasted Over “Disgusting” Crossword Puzzle
The New York Times came under fire this week for publishing a crossword puzzle that resembled a swastika — on the first day of Hanukkah.
“Disgusting! Only the New York Times would get Chanukah going with this is the crossword puzzle [sic],” Donald Trump Jr. tweeted. “Imagine what they would do to someone who did this and was not ideologically aligned with them? I’ll give them the same benefit of the doubt they would give those people… EXACTLY ZERO.”
“Meanwhile, on the first night of Hanukkah the anti-Israel New York Slimes issues a crossword puzzle that looks like a swastika,” said Mark Levin, a conservative radio host. “Of course, when pointed out, they claimed it was a coincidence. What a sick and sad history.”
NYT columnist Caitlin Lovinger wrote, “I love the geometry in this puzzle — so many stair steps! — and feel that it contributes to a certain evenness in the solve.”
The puzzle’s designer, Ryan McCarty, described it as a “fun whirlpool shape.”
Despite many social media users across the political spectrum comparing it to a hate symbol, the NYT has defended the design.
“This is a common crossword design: Many open grids in crosswords have a similar spiral pattern because of the rules around rotational symmetry and black squares,” the outlet told The Jewish Chronicle.

If you have to explain a puzzle you made, you are already in deep trouble.
