New York Times Accused of Cover-Up in Platner Sexual Assault Story

What was said

"She's out she's coming out now saying, 'I didn't tell the full story then because I wasn't ready.' But they had this bird in hand and apparently weren't interested enough to coax this out of her or did coax it out of her and weren't interested in coaxing it such that they could get it in print. And now another woman that woman Lindseay Field the conservative who was featured in the New York Times is coming out now and ripping the times a new one saying your piece wound up being a coverup."

Conservative activist Lindseay Field, who appeared in the original New York Times exposé on Graham Platner, is now accusing the newspaper of running cover for the candidate rather than exposing the full truth about sexual misconduct allegations. The Times had access to Jenny Razincott, who alleges Platner raped her, but either failed to coax the full story from her or chose not to publish it, leaving it to Politico weeks later to report the rape allegation. The controversy raises serious questions about media credibility and whether establishment outlets protected a progressive insurgent candidate.
