That's nothing less than an admission that Bloomberg News is a full time Democrat infomercial. That by the way also violates campaign finance laws because every story about Trump Bloomberg News runs is now a in kind contribution and further Bloomberg has admitted that Michael Bloomberg has direct editorial control which means that Bloomberg News is colluding with Michael Bloomberg to shape it's reporting to aid Bloomberg's campaign and hurt Trump's.
Because of this open statement of partisanship by Bloomberg News the Trump campaign has said it won't accredit Bloomberg "reporters" or allow them to attend Trump campaign events.
Now this shouldn't be shocking to any sane person; after all would anyone expect Joe Biden to allow the RNC to send "reporters" to his campaign events?
Members of the press who aren't dishonest should be condemning Bloomberg News.
So not surprisingly the New York Times is defending them.
NYT Executive Editor Dean Baquet said:
"Bloomberg News is one of the largest and most influential news organizations in the world. We condemn any action that keeps quality news media from reporting fairly and accurately on the presidency and the leadership of the country,"
Given that Bloomberg News has said it will continue to investigate Trump but none of his opponents it's clearly a lie for Banquet to say that Bloomberg News would report fairly about the president. What he's trying to do is pretend that while Bloomberg News isn't investigating Democrats they're being totally unbiased in their coverage of Trump. How likely is that if the organization is dancing to the tune of it's billionaire owner and turning a blind eye to anything negative about Democrats?
Just because we don't have an internal memo telling Bloomberg "reporters" to attack Trump doesn't mean it's not likely there isn't one.
This is the real threat to the free press in America; journalists saying their job is to help Democrats not provide we the people with the facts so that we can make up our minds.
