I think the quality of reporting in general, on both sides, has gone down. The internet has wrecked the financial sustainability of the news business, and as a result, there are less resources to verify claims and there's a premium put on stories that grab eyeballs. NYT is not immune, but It's sort of hilarious that NYP is pointing it out given the tabloid nature that paper has adopted.
