The New York Times (NYT) produced articles in late June about Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy’s large family and whether readers should wear camouflage, prompting backlash online.
“Sean Duffy would like you to watch his family making pancakes,” family reporter Caroline Kitchener wrote in a Monday article titled “The MTV Reality Star in Trump’s Cabinet Who Wants You to Have More Kids.”
Kitchener, who previously reported on abortion at the Washington Post (WaPo), appeared to paint Duffy’s promotion of his family as a political tool.
“Since that first race, his children have played a crucial part in his political career. He deployed them in his TV ads for Congress,” Kitchener wrote.
Duffy’s daughter, Evita Alonso-Duffy, pushed back on the article (which she called a “hit piece”) in a Monday tweet.
