They know exactly what they're doing. Their editors have decided that American democracy is a "partisan issue" and have decided to cover it as such, meaning they won't "take sides" over it.

Good to know it isn't just brain dead social media users who don't understand the difference between neutrally reporting on facts and favoring both parties equally.
