Carl Remick quoted Ace Cockburn:

>lies and now, for a variety of reasons, at most people believe us.

The people who don't believe what they read in the NYT and other big media don't do so from the left. They're mostly rightwingers who think the Times is liberal.

And, sorry to be so conventional, but a lot of the stuff in the NYT isn't lies. Most of it is true, in some sense.
