Alessandra Stanley is an American journalist. In 2003 she became the television critic for The New York Times. Stanley was previously co-chief of the paper's Moscow bureau,[1] Rome bureau chief, and as a correspondent for Time. She is the daughter of defense expert Timothy W. Stanley.[1]

Several news and media organizations, including the Times, have criticized the accuracy of Stanley's reporting.[2][3][4][5][6] Among the articles that they have criticized are a September 5, 2005 piece on Hurricane Katrina,[7] a 2005 article that called the sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond "All About Raymond",[8] and a July 18, 2009 retrospective on the career of Walter Cronkite that contained eight research and spelling errors.[9] In an August 2009 article examining the mistakes in the Cronkite piece, Clark Hoyt, the Times's public editor, described Stanley as "much admired by editors for the intellectual heft of her coverage of television" but "with a history of errors".[10]
