NYT can't go a single, off-topic article without crap-smearing Trump. When a media outlet covers a person 100% negatively, at what point does its readership begin to realize there may be a conflict of interest? Or does the collective cognitive dissonance take care of that all by itself?

Maybe the media professionals at the NYT know that they're overdoing it, massively, and doing it anyway because they want Trump to win the presidency but also want plausible deniability?

Or maybe that's just what they want me to think and what they really...

Maybe it's all about Iocane Powder.

It's two sentences. You might be overreacting a bit.
2 sentences in a large number of unrelated articles becomes tiresome I'd imagine.
