Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Actually I find the NY Times (and the Wahington Post) far more obedient to the WH than they would have their readers believe. Often they will make a big splash to bolster their image, but it amounts to very little sustained investigation at the end of the day (similar to the way the democratic party conducts itself). Contributing more to the myth of a liberal news media than the reality. As with much in the current administration, the so-called liberal news media is a fiction invented to bolster the idea that there is actual organized and sustained opposition to them, so that the republican controlled White House, Congress and Supremes can blame any failures on 'the opposition' vs their breathtaking and sustained incompetence.
