Here’s a story about what a New York City Council member said that the New York Daily News is all over:
Conservative Ruben Diaz Sr. unapologetic after claiming City Council controlled by the 'homosexual community' https://t.co/vyj1wTQPiD pic.twitter.com/FrbKnJIKS6

Oh, and it should be mentioned:
Conservative DEMOCRAT

Details, details!
You meant to say, “DEMOCRAT Ruben Diaz Sr.” Biased much?

You spelled Democrat wrong

Yeah, for some reason that wouldn’t fit in their headline:

Democrat lawmaker says NYC controlled by homosexuals.
NY Daily News – “eh call him a conservative, no no, make it the first word in the headline.”
Journamalizing.

Diaz is described as a Democrat who’s “socially conservative,” so maybe it shouldn’t be a surprise about what part of this the NYDN has chosen to go with:
He’s not a conservative. He’s a democrat. You, however, are just another lying “journalist.” #FakeNews

We’re just guessing that if he was a socially liberal Republican the headline wouldn’t have only referred to him as a “liberal.”
Taking "Name! That! Party!" to a new level.

He’s not a conservative.
Are you really this bad at your job?

It’s almost like it was…fake news or something.
