Aside from the obvious "who is Qanon?" I have never seen a more concerted effort here in MD to brush aside Dan Cox's primary victory. Local conservative talk radio won't even bother to learn how to pronounce the Lt. Gov candidate's name or even read about their platform. If Lockdown Larry won't vote for them, then their attitude is we shouldn't give them the time of day. And of course the Dems are proclaiming he's the most dangerous candidate ever.

As far as the NYT and Daily Beast (and others), Trump articles get them clicks, certainly more so than a 5000-word essay on each of the 93 genders. They've never put forth any effort to report honestly before. Why start now?
