That’s what Fox Business is claiming:
The corporate and media sites of The New York Times (NYT) were experiencing a major cyber attack on Wednesday afternoon, according to a source close to the matter. The source, who asked not to be named due to the sensitive nature of the issue, said the newspaper has been huddling with outside security professionals to assess the threat. On its official Twitter account, the New York Times said it was “experiencing technical difficulties.” “We expect to be back up shortly,” it tweeted.
