Publications of every ideological bent have always been free to investigate Cesar Chavez. It was the NY Times that spent 5 years digging up the story that would destroy the legacy of a liberal icon. The journalists who broke the story are the envy of their colleagues, who have been effusively praising them on social media. None of this is surprising to anyone who follows the work of publications like the Times that have been doing this sort of work, exposing bad actors of every political stripe, for more than a century.
