The mainstream media can’t possibly deny its partisan bias anymore, not that they were doing so credibly anyhow.
This week, The New York Times editorial board took over the paper’s opinion Twitter account, which has around 650,000 followers, “to urge the Senate to reject a tax bill that hurts the middle class & the nation’s fiscal health.” By urging the Senate, it meant sending out the phone number of moderate Republican Sen. Susan Collins and imploring followers to call her. In others words, the board was indistinguishable from any of the well-funded partisan groups it whines about in editorials all the time.

Contact @SenatorCollins, (202) 224-2523, particularly if you live in Maine, and ask her to oppose the Senate tax bill because it would repeal Obamacare’s individual mandate, driving up the cost of health insurance. #thetaxbillhurts

Then again, the editors at The New York Times have more pressing denials to make these days. Such as the perception that they are little more than a depraved collection of sex criminals, sexual harassers, and unattractive whores using sex for advancement.
