Same with almost all media, except Twitter. Newspapers, websites and cable news "report" whatever their readers/viewers want to hear. Truth is barely a consideration.
The most troubling part of NYT editor Dean Baquet’s speech to his newsroom was his admission: “our readers...cheer us when we take on Donald Trump.” He added that Trump voters don’t read the Times.
