This captures so much of my frustration with the "liberal" NPR and Times. It reports attacks on the FBI for being a criminal cabal but is indifferent to the accuracy of the attacks. Interestingly even by the "we want to report on what both sides are saying equally" metric it still fails, giving only one sentence on "Democrats say" and giving no time whatsoever to the idea that the attacks are without merit.
Journalists are following a set of professional guidelines that were developed in a different time. Players have learned how to game the system, in this case being well aware that the media will report what people say rather than what a thing is.
