Matt Yglesias is not a reliable source for this kind of claim. Nor is this even believable if you actually have been reading the NYT instead of just listening to the imaginary bogeyman peddled by the far right.

The NYT is a center right paper that is generally friendly and welcoming to big money (see greenwashing "advertorials" by Shell and many others), it is not the leftist rag that right wing hacks like Yglesias constantly paint it as.
