These shows are too policially biased even for the NEW YORK FUCKING TIMES! 
The New York Times Refuses To Lets Its Reporters Go On Rachel Maddow
The New York Times has deemed Rachel Maddow too opinionated and is refusing to let their reporters go on her MSNBC show.
Vanity Fair reported:
Enrich said yes, but after mentioning the planned appearance to the Timesās communications department, he was told he would have to retroactively decline. The reason? The Times was wary of how viewers might perceive a down-the-middle journalist like Enrich talking politics with a mega-ideological host like Maddow.
ā¦.
Itās not just Maddow. The Times has come to āprefer,ā as sources put it, that its reporters steer clear of any cable-news shows that the masthead perceives as too partisan, and managers have lately been advising people not to go on what they see as highly opinionated programs. Itās not clear how many shows fall under that umbrella in the eyes of Times brass, but two others that definitely do are Lawrence OāDonnellās and Don Lemonās, according to people familiar with managementās thinking. Hannityās or Tucker Carlsonās shows would likewise make the cut, but itās not like Times reporters ever do those anyway. Iām told that over the past couple of months, executive editor Dean Baquet has felt that opinionated cable-news show are getting, well, even more opinionated.
