As noted the other day, Holland America provides online access to The New York Times. Today their lead articles (2) concern the President's plan to revise the income tax system.
The first is almost all straight reportage, as it should be.
The second, labeled "News Analysis" begins to demonstrate how to spin a story.
The "Analysis" mentions all of the lacunae in the White House announcement. These are the not-filled-in details and the imponderables (characterized as "problems") those gaps might create.
You have to read to the final 2 paragraphs to learn economists think Trump's new plan would definitely be stimulative, a boost to the economy.
Witness the classic misdirection ... author Binyamin Appelbaum puts the good news at the end. That's where many will never read it because the story - as written - becomes repetitively negative three paragraphs back.
The "Analysis" is an example of finely crafted subtle evil. The evil is easy to deny and hard to prove absent the Times' overt editorial bias.
