It’s not about people being idiots, it’s about the NYT helping trump in any and every way possible.

Lots of 3rd parties are complicit. That's why critical thinking and understanding conscious and unconscious bias is so important. Third parties with agenda are and always will be present. The trick is getting people to understand article by article what is biased or propaganda and how to suss it out. At least the ability to be suspicious without the need to jump to being a full on conspiracy theorist. IDK, it's just so disappointing.

Absolutely. Some variation of which has been promoted for 50 years. We’re very, very, very far behind.
