#1 The motive is obvious: Own the narrative.

Or what NYT Editor Dean Baquet calls "the story."

As Baquet stated clearly in the recent NYT staff meeting, "the story" was Russiagate, and when that failed, "the story changed" to all racism, all the time.

There is no way to be honest, accurate and intelligent and still fit an account of jihadi mass murder into the latest NYT "story." Hence the absurd contortions.

#3 Well, if guns kill people why airplanes can't?

#4 Once again the media reflects the ultimate denial or distortion of reality. They claim that planes killed nearly 3000 people on 9/11, denying that radical Muslims killed these people.

Similar attitudes are shown by the MSM when it comes to mass shootings as reflected in “guns kill people and we must control firearms” rather than acknowledging that people shoot people.

For some reason, the exception is climate change where people are at fault according to the MSM rather than climate change being a natural process that has occurred over eons of time. Were it not for climate change, we’d be living in the Ice Age.
