Reddit pushes back on NYT's Jensen Huang profile framing even his $1,000 tip as PR
adnshrnly · reddit · 2026-11-14
A Reddit user shared a screenshot from the NYT's new profile of Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, which notes he once tipped a Denny's waitress $1,000 in hundred-dollar bills without making a show of it — before suggesting the gesture was "an act performed to flatter himself." The poster argues the coverage shows the paper has an agenda against Huang, sparking discussion about media bias in AI industry reporting.
