NYT calls Jill Biden 'doctor,' but not Rand Paul who is actually a doctor

Breitbart reports, "New York Times labeled first lady Jill Biden a 'doctor' on Sunday while not giving ophthalmologist Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) the same courtesy."

"Paul is a medically licensed ophthalmologist. Jill Biden only possesses a doctor of education (EdD) degree, not a medical degree," Breitbart noted. "But that does not seem to matter to the Times, which published Sunday that 'Dr. Biden' is 'an English and writing professor who made history."

The Times reported, "Dr. Biden, an English and writing professor who made history as the only first lady to keep her career while in the White House, has traveled to 32 states, many of them conservative, to promote school reopenings, infrastructure funding, community colleges and support for military families. She has also traveled to states where low numbers of eligible people have received the coronavirus vaccine."

Breitbart observed, "On August 11, the Times did not give Sen. Paul the 'Dr.' title in an article entitled 'YouTube suspends Rand Paul for a week over a video disputing the effectiveness of masks."

"In the video, Mr. Paul says: 'Most of the masks you get over the counter don’t work. They don’t prevent infection,' Breitbart reported. "Later in the video, he adds, 'Trying to shape human behavior isn’t the same as following the actual science, which tells us that cloth masks don’t work."
