    Joe Biden is currently facing allegations of sexual assault by a former
    Senate aide, Tara Reade, who filed a police report against him for
    allegedly assaulting her in 1993. Following weeks of inattention to the situation, The New York Times has finally reported on the claims, going
    to bat for the former Vice President and dismissing Reade’s claims.

    The article, which is worded as a defense of Biden, states that the
    paper found that “no other allegation of sexual assault surfaced in the
    course of our reporting, nor did any former Biden staff corroborate
    Reade’s allegation.”

    “We found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Biden, beyond hugs,
    kisses, and touching that women previously said made them
    uncomfortable.”

    When it was initially published, the text simply read: “The Times found
    no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden,” a claim that contradicts previous accusations against Biden.

    That tweet has since been deleted.

    KC Johnson
    NYT has deleted tweet about its Biden story claiming no
    "pattern of misconduct" by Biden beyond "hugs, touching, and
    kissing" that women had said made uncomfortable (behavior
    that the TIX policies Biden championed would have produced
    expulsion for college students).

    In a separate paragraph, the article notes that “filing a false police
    report may be punishable by a fine and imprisonment,” a caveat that the
    paper never mentioned in its breathless coverage of the “trial” of
    Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. During his confirmation in 2018,
    The New York Times ran numerous pieces accusing Kavanaugh of sexual
    assault with an emphasis on believing all women who accuse powerful men
    of abuse.

    Since running for President, eight women have alleged that Biden either
    touched them inappropriately or violated their personal space, forcing
    him to release what critics called a “non-apology apology.” The former
    VP then retracted the statement to say that he was “not sorry for
    anything I’ve ever done.”

    Biden has also been criticized for commenting on the sexual appearance
    of young girls and women on the 2020 campaign trail. Biden’s defenders
    claim that he is a relic of a different age and hold him to a much
    lower standard than any other public figure.

    The New York Times’ coverage of the Tara Reade allegation also
    contradicts a previous investigation by the newspaper. In a 2019
    article, the paper wrote that “Biden’s Tactile Politics Threaten his
    Return in the #MeToo era.”

    Tactile refers to Biden’s longstanding tendency to grope women and
    girls. Biden has been repeatedly photographed and captured on video
    sniffing women’s hair and groping their thighs and shoulders—actions
    his critics use to paint him as an unabashed pervert incapable of
    respecting women’s personal space.

    You couldn’t make this up. It’s like saying we investigated Genghis
    Khan and found no pattern of behavioral misconduct beyond all the
    raping and killing he committed in his decades-long invasions of China
    and the Western world.

    Doesn't that action make the NYT liable as a co-defendant in any lawsuit
    or criminal action, and shouldn't they answer as to why they decided to
    become involved in a criminal investigation....? By hiding the truth
    they aren't reporting news they're protecting hand aiding and abetting a
    crime in progress.
