I've kinda been following the NYT and WP in regard to what they cover about Biden and Trump. By far they both cover Biden more negatively and more often.
Dan Rather had a piece here on Substack to that effect this past week https://steady.substack.com/p/a-dangerous-double-standard
Dan Froomkin has been covering the press for a number of years pretty much with the same conclusion. https://presswatchers.org/author/froomkin/ The same can be said about CNN. Although not as bad as Fox they are more like Fox-lite.
Bottom line its hard to deny that like Fox the NYT and WP are in the bag for Trump.
