There just needs to be a long article, in which the reporter presents the results of an investigation into how much money the NYTimes is in hock for to Carlos Slim, Carlos Slim’s investments in the Mexican economy, and how Donald Trump’s policies would affect Carlos Slim’s investments.

I can assure you - hell would freeze over before the New York Times would do that story...

Trump: NY Times Against Me Because ‘It’s Owned By Mexico’

Donald Trump told a crowd of supporters in Sparks, Nevada on Tuesday it’s no mystery why The New York Times attacks him: “It’s owned by Mexico.”

As part of his regular stump speech calling the press dishonest, Trump singled out the Times, saying it was strange that the newspaper wanted to advise others what to do when it hasn’t been very smart in its own business dealings.

“They buy a building, and they have a building in New York. They sell it for $125 million or so. Right? Couple of years – few years later, guy sells it for $525 million,” Trump said. “They buy The Boston Globe for $1.3 billion. They sell it for $1. And then they write an editorial where they tell you how to run your life. Give me a break.”

But it wasn’t just Trump’s view that the Times has bad business acumen that drew his ire.

“I know why I get bad treatment in The New York Times: because it’s owned by Mexico,” he said. “I don’t know if you know. A rich guy in Mexico actually has power at The New York Times. I wonder why they don’t like us, you know? I just wonder.”
