I don't think there will be any impactful election news for at least 48 hours, probably more. People will be nervously grasping for assurances that they can't realistically have and the outlets will be cranking out content to fill that void without actually saying anything. It's pretty much just dark entertainment at this point.
Writing such content would be terrible, sounds like a great time to strike.
There’s not much actual value to society to having stuff like the election needle running, it is just a moment-to-moment description of the processes of counting votes, which have already been cast, so we can “enjoy” the stress of Election Day.
But it is probably a huge click-driver for NYT.
This actually is probably the best possible moment for a strike, in terms of inconveniencing NYT without harming coverage of important events.
