The New York Times finally did a report on the sexual assault allegations against Joe Biden.
Naturally, they did it over the weekend, on Easter when no one was paying attention.
The report itself also downplayed the allegations and was even edited after publication. Some people suspect they did that at the direction of the Biden campaign.
The Daily Caller reports:
NYT Executive Editor Appears To Admit Edit On Biden Sexual Assault Allegation Came After Pressure From Biden Campaign
Dean Baquet, executive editor of the New York Times, appeared to admit Monday that the publication was pressured by former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign after editing a story about sexual assault allegations against him.
The NYT’s Sunday article, titled “Examining Tara Reade’s Sexual Assault Allegation Against Joe Biden,” told the story of allegations made by the former Biden staffer. Reade has accused Biden of sexually assaulting her in 1993 while he was the senator for Delaware.
The article originally contained a sentence that was quietly edited out following publication.
“No other allegation about sexual assault surfaced in the course of our reporting, nor did any former Biden staff corroborate Reade’s allegation. We found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Biden, beyond hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable,” the NYT first reported.
The second half of the sentence was later edited out and the paragraph was changed.
“No other allegation about sexual assault surfaced in the course of reporting, nor did any former Biden staff members corroborate any details of Ms. Reade’s allegation. The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden,” the NYT article now reads.

I had to see for myself that this tweet was real. I was convinced it was photoshopped. It was not photoshopped. pic.twitter.com/M8nEQCm8CU

Imprecise in the sense that it told a truth liberals want to hide https://t.co/MdTuaeI8pi

We accidentally said the quiet part out loud. Sorry. Won’t happen again. https://t.co/zI3yMS5vJ6

Do you remember how the New York Times treated the ridiculous allegations against Brett Kavanaugh?
They don’t care about the truth, they just run cover for Democrats and attack Republicans.
