In case you had any doubt whatsoever, let's just lay it out: The New York Times is not just a journalistic institution that leans left in its worldview. It's a left-wing propaganda arm, and from the moment it sets out to write a story, it is looking not to learn the truth, but to assemble information and/or misinformation (whatever works) that appears to support the Times's preferred narrative.
But the Times seems to have missed the fact that there are now other media outlets who will give a voice to sources the Times betrays. You heard a great deal the past few days about the account of Rowanne Brewer Lane, who was presented by the Times as a woman treated badly by Trump - when in fact she felt nothing of the sort and told Fox News that Trump treated her with complete respect.
