New York Times calms Clinton supporters with moderate editorial stroking.

On a recent front-page edition of the NYT website, I noticed the following three headlines lined up like doggies in the window.

Hillary Clinton Sharpens Focus After Democratic Debate Tussles

In Democratic Debate, Hillary Clinton Paints Bernie Sanders’s Plans as Unrealistic

Hillary Clinton Is Calm, Cool and Effective

Since then, they can be found here, with the second two in the margin:

From there I believe it went to Trump and Cruz. You know, Hillary, Trump and Cruz. The three candidates running for president.

The New York Times continues to enjoy (and flout) an unhealthy relationship with the political and financial king-makers. Given the well documented cause and effect relationship between the disruptive policies promoted by Hillary Clinton and our worsening crisis of inequality, such incestuous and public displays of affection should make everyone uncomfortable. Maybe it's just valentine's day.

There is no doubt NYT would lose the much cherished access to the inner workings of our political elite if Hillary were to lose the primary. Good. The absence of media transparency is exactly the problem at the center of our dysfunctional political system.
