Except when it is inconvenient for leftards. This is pretty rich. Leftards lie and love to be lied to. Like the left went crazy when Kameltoe went on the View and was asked what she would have done different than the dementia patient. That tough question was a bridge too far for leftards.

IT’S COME TO THIS: New York Times Struggles to Explain Why It Reported News to Traumatized Readers.
This week, the New York Times experienced an uprising in its ranks and among its readers. The paper was denounced by its own staff and liberal pundits called for the entire editorial staff to be canned. Why? Because The New York Times actually reported news that was deemed harmful to the Democrats, specifically Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani. The newspaper took the additional step of publishing a cringing explanation of why it reported the news that Mamdani lied on his Columbia application in claiming to be black. For liberals, it was an utter nightmare. For a party still defined by identity politics, Mamdani’s false claim over his race left many uncertain about how to react. The left has always maintained a high degree of tolerance for false claims by its own leaders, from Sen. Elizabeth Warren claiming to be a native American to Sen. Richard Blumenthal claiming to have served in the Vietnam War.
The problem is when a news eco-chamber for many readers is shattered by an errant outbreak of journalism. Many Times readers live within a hermetically sealed news silo, relying on MSNBC for cable, The New York Times for print, and BlueSky for social media. You can literally go all day without being exposed to an opposing view or fact. Then suddenly this happens.
The result is often anger. It is the same response many in higher education have to “triggering” views being expressed on campus by conservative or libertarian speakers.
And groveling to bitter and angry subscribers:

Why is it always a democrat claiming to be something they aren’t?
And it’s ALWAYS about race or ethnicity.
