NyT and WaPo have been at this for a long long time. It's just that unless you're from outside the US, you'd likely never had to deal with their evangelical propaganda.

The folk who run these institutions are cherry-picked from the Humanities departments, which are swarming with similar co-religionists. Tons of folk who are willing to do anything it takes to get more cookie points from those at the top, who really set the agenda. They keep shouting platitudes day in day out about "freedom of speech", but nevertheless enforce censorship that'd put CPC to shame. This story is repeated across University departments across the states; often to the point where having any reasonable conversation with these people becomes extremely annoying (which probably explains the excrement that usually comes out from the humanities departments).
