I think the issue you have with the lastest SPINN publication is your own mistaken understandings of what an editorial is. The New York Times is a paper of record that provides largely unbiased news. Quite literally it's one of the few newspapers that can be used in a legal setting to prove legal claims. Yet it also has an Editorial Board that writes opinion pieces and endorses candidates and policies.

Newspapers have always had editorial content. By definition, that content is not neutral and unbiased. It's the opinion of the writers, which is why it's separated from the rest of the news content and specially labeled as an editorial.

Your beef with SPINN is that an editorial was critical of you. That doesn't make its non-opinion content biased.
