Hank Berrien

On Sunday, appearing on CNN’s “Reliable Sources” with host Brian Stelter, New York Times writer Frank Bruni stated that the only honest way for the Times to cover President Trump is to give him negative coverage.

Stelter introduced the subject by discussing the new book by the former executive editor of the Times, Jill Abramson, titled, “Merchants of Truth,” which contains some criticism of the Times for having an “anti-Trump bent.” In the book, Abramson also discussed Dean Baquet, the editor who replaced her, asserting, “His news pages were unmistakably anti-Trump. Some headlines contained raw opinion, as did some of the stories that were labeled as news analysis.”
