New York Times Slammed Over Bonkers Headline Comparing Biden And Trump On Abortion

Many readers online slammed The New York Times after they portrayed Joe Biden and Donald Trump both as 'imperfect messengers' on the issue of abortion rights.

The New York Times was slammed for an article comparing both Democratic President Joe Biden and former Republican President Donald Trump as "imperfect messengers" on abortion.

Abortion is a key issue in the presidential race that sees both candidates with diametrically opposed views on reproductive freedom going head to head once again in November.


The GOP has been relentlessly pushing to roll back reproductive rights while the Democrats have tirelessly fought for the right to body autonomy.

But while Donald Trump is flailing on the issue, trying to square his central role in overturning Roe v. Wade with the political reality that abortion bans are unpopular with the American people, President Joe Biden has been consistently and strongly supportive of reproductive rights, having pledged to restore Roe v. Wade if he is given the congressional majorities to pass it.

But despite the clear differences between the two candidates on the issue, the New York Times tried to compare them with a bizarre headline, calling the two presidential candidates "Imperfect Messengers" on the issue.

The headline read:

"Two Imperfect Messengers Take On Abortion"


It was followed by:

"Neither side of the abortion divide would probably design the exact candidate they have in 2024."

Social media users condemned the reputable newspaper for its bizarre attempt to "both-sides" the issue.








Users trolled the media outlet with equally ridiculous comparisons.




The jarring headline serves as yet another example of the media's failure to properly frame just how not normal, and how extreme, Donald Trump is as a candidate.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
