It is part opinion and part fact. Did you even read the article?

The NYT, like any other news outlet, can use journalistic editing to their hearts content, as the article on James Ujamma illustrated.

It was the editorial decision to slant the headlines regardless of what the polls said that damaged the NYT credibility. The transparency is illuminating for those who wish to look.

The writer correctly stated:

Historically, the Times has justifiably enjoyed more credibility than almost every other American paper. Today, however, the Times is suffering through a "Raines of Error," and the average news article from the Times is less likely to tell the whole truth than the average article from the staffs of the News or the Post.

It's all about bias.
