I wonder how many articles The New York Times ran about FDR's wheelchair. As far as I know, it's zero, but I could be wrong. But back then Joe Kahn hadn't invented "independent journamalism" yet.
he also died a little over three months into his third term without actually preparing his successor. so while i do wish the NYT would run far more articles about the fact that trump is a rapist and a crook, not sure the media not being as deferential now is entirely a bad thing.
