Context: Gaza is ruled by Hamas. Literally, legally speaking. So "Palestinian official" in this case is Hamas official. Hamas is designated as terrorist group by EU, UK, US, Canada, Australia and Japan. So, NYT was literally quoted a high-ranked member of a terrorist organization.
For me there's only one meaning of that: NYT chose a side in this conflict, and that side is of Hamas, terrorist organization. Why NYT doing this - I have not a slightest idea, but judging by their actions I have no other explanation.
