21. How you know the NYT "never said a word"? Do you have a subscription? A print subscription?

It was a while ago, but I recall there were multiple articles on Project 2025 throughout the campaign. I certainly knew about it and that's my main news source outside of DU.

And if they had met your standards of "saying a word" about Project 2025, do you think that would have tipped the scales towards Harris? It wouldn't have. Hardly any Americans read the NYT or any daily newspaper at all. They want to watch TV and not use their brains - it's too hard.

BTW, this is an Op-Ed piece from a regular columnist.
