If you check out the author’s bio, he doesn’t sound like a Republican sympathizer to me. You pick a tiny bit of incoherence in the article and dismiss it entirely? You’re the one who sounds like they’ve got a slant. You didn’t even finish the piece. You sound like you’re dismissing it simply because you don’t like what it’s saying. That’s bad information consumption.
I didnt dismiss it entirely. I merely noted that the part I read includes a solid example of the biggest complaint against the grey lady over the past several years : that they parrott Republican attacks without challenge or clarification.
The part I paraphrased wasn’t “incoherence” – it’s an analogy specially chosen to outrage and motivate Republican voters, which was printed “above the fold” and may well have gone unchallenged in the whole rest of the article.
And while the bylined author presumably as you say a wholesome journalist who would never cause such distortion, they’re also an employee and not responsible or empowered to edit, format, or headline their work.
