NY Times Editor Says Biden Sexual-Assault Article Was Edited after His Campaign Complained



now we know why the NYT changed their reporting on Biden being credibly accused of sexual assault - the Biden campaign told them to and exactly what needed to be changed

This is a classic example of normal journalistic happenings being painted as corrupt.

Newspapers take feedback from interested parties. If the feedback identifies a legitimate area where edits might be needed, those edits aren't an example of political bias.

Nothing about the original phrasing was wrong, it was factually correct and gave readers a truthful impression of the matter. Editing the article to sugarcoat Biden's behavior of touching and sniffing women and making them uncomfortable - this objectively made the article less factual. This was NOT a case with a legitimate reason for an edit.

It didn't sugarcoat it. It was awkward phrasing. Previously in the article it notes that other women have accused Biden of unwanted touching, so it's not like they didn't mention it.



Without knowledge of the accusations, what does this sentence imply? Something different from the actual reality. It almost sounds like he pulled a Trump and just randomly kissed women on the lips.

Well, we just passed this number earlier today.

Did that include giving Biden the reacharound?

I know who Karens are. I've worked retail. There's a wide variety. And those people in the picture look a lot like people I've seen in stores.
