Trump gave NYT interview where he spouted 40 mins of lies and gibberish. NYT dressed it up and ran it as front-page “news”; nytimes.com/2020/08/27/us/…
Trump has “bent the job to his will”!
what a complete embarrassment. Access Journalism is a disease
number of Trump family members/Republicans quoted in article: 7
number of Dems voted: 0
in front-page piece abt Trump’s first term, NYT doesn’t care what a single Dem thinks
keeping Trump critics out of news pages is how you help normalize Trump
