The New York Times is no stranger to sharp language. In 2024, its editorial board published the shocking headline “Donald Trump, Felon,” showing that forceful framing is acceptable in mainstream opinion writing.

It is a critique of misleading journalism that leans on emotion and leaves essential legal details in the shadows, stirring sympathy while obscuring the law. The dynamic would be familiar to any Journalism 101 student.
