GET ME REWRITE: Trump snookers his MAGA cult into paying his legal bills

 
Headline:  New York Times,
(appeared on front page, above the fold, of 1/19/2024 print edition)
Mr. Trump is facing 91 criminal charges in four jurisdictions, as well as two costly civil trials, where he has used voluntary appearances at New York courthouses this month as public relations and fund-raising vehicles.

Then we have this on page A17.

Why Trump Is Back in Federal Court
Defending Himself in a Defamation Case
New York Times print headline, 1/19/2024

Question already answered.  (See above)

Most egregious omission:  No mention of 'fundraising'.  

Absolute garbage reporting.  All 1700+ words of it.

According to Merriam-Webster, the first-known use of 'snooker' (verb), defined as to make a dupe of: HOODWINK, occurred in 1925.
