His job is not get this or that candidate elected. It's more like the New York Times is in denial blaming everybody but the poor candidate they endorsed for her failure to get elected. The New York Times was also in denial during the campaign dismissing Trump's candidacy as a joke, then giving Hillary 99% chances to win. Had they taken Trump seriously from the get-go and try to do a proper rebuttal with fact checking and not just "Pepe the frog is a fascist symbol", maybe the outcome would have been different.
