Perhaps Trump can sue NY State (or other parties; Bragg, etc.) alleging that the trial was created for the purpose of election interference. In that case, propaganda outlets that would try to claim "Trump IS a felon" during an election year could theoretically be held liable for defamation, or election interference, themselves. Also, criminal conspiracy to interfere with an election.
I am mot sure how exactly that would work in the legal sense. Maybe some kind of injunction, or other legal decree could prohibit libel/slander against Trump in this particular case, due to tue "election interference" element?

The lawyers on retainer at all of the MSM outlets know exactly where the line is.
Remember, Trump is a public figure, so they do have more leeway with what they report.
Also, headlines can shape opinion even if the articles themselves have little to do with said headlines.
