At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.
The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

An ICE officer who shot a US citizen in Chicago last month bragged about the incident in texts afterwards, according to court documents.
It’s just one of the latest examples of how, contrary to the Trump administration’s own narrative, the agents supposedly helping are posing a danger to residents.

It’s very strange to repeatedly see Democratic “strategists” observe that the party is widely seen as focusing on identity politics—in spite of the Harris campaign largely avoiding them —and concluding this is a problem with party priorities and not with losing voters to misinformation.

The intimidation included threats that family members would lose visas, which is both in character and *friggin insane*
European negotiators were personally targeted by their American counterparts during a brutal negotiation over green shipping rules, European Commission officials told POLITICO.
This highly unusual gambit left diplomats shaken after the meeting.

3. There are true villains in the story, and we have to tell it that way.
