In a transparent effort to support their nominee the New York Times did an “investigation” of Joe Biden to evaluate the merit to the sexual assault claims made by Ms. Tara Reade, a former senate staffer.

…”No other allegation about sexual assault surfaced in the course of reporting, nor did any former Biden staff members corroborate any details of Ms. Reade’s allegation. The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden.”…
