The NYT editorial board can make anti-Trump noises in an editorial, which costs them nothing and has little effect other than pandering to their liberal readership, and still fall all over themselves to "both sides" the news, which is in practical effect support for Trump.

What NYT does is worse than if they were out and out in the bag for Trump IMO.
