'The Anatomy of a Lie,' NYT reconstruct of 'Trump's failed 77-day effort to subvert democracy and overturn the 2020 election'

Were we reading the same NYT?

I’m reading this one:

Fucking NY Times

@deltaecho

If NYT had daily acknowledged his abnormality, NYT’s tone would quickly have become indistinguishable from that of the shrieking gullet of Newsmax/OANN

That’s a bizarre false dichotomy. There’s miles and miles of middle ground between calling out Trump’s illegal/immoral activity, as press is supposed to do, and OANN.

@deltaecho

But no, NYT did not “legitimize” Trump.

I stand by what a wrote. You can scarequote it all you like.
