Dear NYT,

You have the power to fix this.

You could help this situation a lot by not normalizing Trump at every opportunity, and not letting your OpEd contributors and headline editors whitewash and soft-sell fascism.

Learn to use words like "lie", "liar" and "lying" when taking about Trump. Don't shy away from "rapist" or "felon”or “fascist”, either.

Failing that, firing Haberman and Stephens and all the access-journalism flunkies would be a good start.
