The NYT has been having a real one ever since Trump edged ahead of Biden in the polls.
This is pretty standard for the Newspaper Of Record. They will gargle your balls when you’re leading, then start pissing on your face as soon as you dip under the 50% marker.
This creates a certain degree of ideological confusion, as “The NYT is too right wing!” was a popular belief under Bush while “No! Too left wing!” was popular under Obama and later Trump.
But they’re literally just blowing in the wind. If Biden ever gets over the 50% approval line, you’ll see a flood of “Yo, did you know Trump Bad Aktuly?!” headlines and “Is Biden our greatest American President? These three guys trying to sell you a book think so!” Op-Ed think pieces.
