Terrific piece by Dana Frank in the Guardian about how the New York Times likes to call the left “polarizing” and “divisive” when it's just doing politics the way it's supposed to be done in a democracy.
theguardian.com
Why does the New York Times keep calling the left ‘divisive’?
The newspaper often uses the word to describe elections with progressive contenders, implying a previous whole destroyed by the left
