Here, Chait admits the institutional bias he complains is a false accusation. The NYT has been spun for years as a PR tool, by Trump’s campaign, his staff, and Trump himself, by (Chait’s own words) letting Haberman ā€œinform the paper’s entire coverage of Trump.ā€
Chait’s #fumblebrag raises the question: if Haberman’s spin ā€œinforms NYT’s entire coverage of Trump,ā€ how much did her PR spin ā€œinformā€ @nytimes’s decision to run a pre-2016-election article headlined with the breathtaking lie: No Connection Found Between Trump And Russia.
Given Chait’s concession that everything NYT says about Trump is driven by Haberman, it makes that headline seem less like a hapless blunder by a paper infatuated with its own infallibility, and more a profoundly-corrupt bit of election meddling.
