    tldr; Media outlet responsible for feeding the public a constant diet of Trump wonders why no one notices Trump barely won the election.

      You’re not wrong in terms of what they tried to feed the public, but I also think the New York Times’s influence on the country is just infinitesimal at this point. There was a time when so many people read newspapers that it could make a sizable impact on the election, but I think that time is long in the past now, and even TV has waned quite a bit in its influence.
