No, read the article again. The article is reporting on the activity of the US (government panel called CFIUS), it is in the second paragraph:

> The clash erupted in public on Tuesday after the United States government, citing national security concerns, called for a full investigation into a hostile bid to buy the American chip stalwart Qualcomm — a review that is often a death knell for a corporate deal.

And the end of the third paragraph:

> But a government panel said the takeover could weaken Qualcomm and give its Chinese rivals an advantage.

If the US government panel wasn't making a fuss over this, the NyTimes would have nothing to report. The author is actually reporting the facts that exist (US concerns over this acquisition with a focus on China), they aren't making these facts up.

If you want to criticize about why this article is all about China, your beef is with the US government panel, not the author of this article.
