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

Complaints have been raised regarding the accuracy of her reporting,[2][3][4][5][6] including a September 5, 2005 article on Hurricane Katrina,[7] the name of Everybody Loves Raymond,[8] and a July 18, 2009 retrospective on the career of Walter Cronkite.[9] Clark Hoyt, the Times' public editor, while examining the Cronkite article described Stanley as "much admired by editors for the intellectual heft of her coverage of television" but "with a history of errors".[10]
