> When all the errors go in one direction, it "smells a lot like smoke", as you put it. This is true, and it's why I have consistently characterized the Russiagate investigation as overwrought with regard to direct election interference. But you're the one making unequivocal claims about the NYT publishing misinformation. At this point, it's clear that you're not interested in trying to defend the lie and would rather argue in circles about exactly how trustworthy the newspaper is. All you have to do is link to a single NYT piece on the investigation which contains clear misinformation. (That would still leave your comments on intent and propaganda unsubstantiated, but we would be much closer than we were five comments ago.)
