... "white wash" any candidate, but especially not TSF.

As far as their influence on the election.... about zero, one way or the other. There are just not that many people who read the NYT or the WaPo.

Their influence would be in exclusive stories that they develop and are picked up by other news services (including, of course, Raw Story). These are almost always, of course, negative. Because good news is no news.

This "normalization" critic is lazy, cliche thinking. So is blaming the messenger in any case.
