For all of us disgusted by the NYTimes (no, I haven’t canceled yet), the last few days have been illuminating. The Kamala-surge-GOP/Trump-implosion story is regularly top/center on the front page (just now it’s the Black-journalists fiasco). Occurs to me that maybe the Times isn’t institutionally anti-Democrat, it’s just institutionally lazy, focuses obsessively on whichever story is easiest to tell?
