my story would come across the way that I was telling it and honestly
They spun it to where it appeared negative.

They wrote it the way they heard it. They did not need spin to make it appear negative, because they heard it through their world view and wrote what they honestly thought they heard. It's actually more dangerous than a media that is trying to make Trump look bad.
If it were intentional, they'd be able to write an honest article if their credibility is on the line. But their subconscious filter/bias makes them unable to write an honest article even if their job depends on it.
Fortunately Trump is a master at dealing with them. I'd guess a lot more people will now hear her positive message and lots of media will have discussions about it and the NYT will lose some credibility so Hillary won't be able to use them as much for a reliable propaganda channel.

Trump has already set things up so the media has to cover "mistakes" like this more honestly than in the past. Notice how CNN ALWAYS corrects guests who say "Muslim ban" that it is a "temporary Muslim ban" - never would have happened with Romney/McCain/.... His attacks on the media and their dependency on revenue from covering him along with his willingness to spend time with them ($$$) has exposed their subconscious filter/bias to where they are aware and compensate for it.

You have a point, about the idiotic "world view," of the New York Times--which certainly also includes the Left's basic hostility to normal sexual roles--that is where men act like men & women act like women in social interaction. But I think you miss the point, why the writer would have been given the assignment to probe Trump's personal relationships with young women, in a desperate quest. It was a deliberate quest for material with which to smear him.

As mentioned in my first reply here, with reference to my political & psychological novel. I put in the Chapters where a young Times Reporter is ordered to write this type of piece, in reference to a campaign, where the Left is clearly losing ground to a superior Conservative, because this behavior of the "Times" is predictable. (And the psychological aspects, you discuss, reflect why they stupidly believe this sort of tactic will actually work against a strong candidate, like Donald Trump or the fictitious candidate in my novel.)

They wrote it the way they heard it. They did not need spin to make it appear negative, because they heard it through their world view and wrote what they honestly thought they heard. It's actually more dangerous than a media that is trying to make Trump look bad.

I don't buy that at all. They knew exactly what they heard, and they simply lied in the way they packaged the info from the interview. The game plan all along has been for the media to make this election about women... since Hillary is a woman. No matter who the R candidate was to be, this election was to be about Hillary the mighty woman against the evil male-dominated world. That's really all she has to run on... she sure as heck can't run on her record.

Everyone on Fox News even always says "Trump has a problem with women voters" which is a lie... but the plan is to repeat that message often enough so some folks believe it.

We saw this game plan before... except it was the race card for Obama. It worked.
