The New York Times spent eight years looking for pics of Bush that made him look bad. It's standard practice for American newspapers on both sides of the political divide. Unfortunately.
It's not just limited to American newspapers. Try to find, for example, a story by the CBC that is not anti-American in general, although they do seem to want to have Obama's babies at the moment. It's quite unfortunate, because what happens is that what may well be a true story gets written off because the entity which delivers it has a reputation for consistently delivering biased news.
In your example, I'd be willing to bet that any good Republican writes off pretty much anything in the NYT as being not worth the paper it's published on.
