If I were the CIA/US gov officials I would somehow want the NY Times to drop this case as one would not want AIs that don't have the talking points and propaganda pushed via papers not be part of the record.

I am not saying that the NY Times is a CIA asset but from the crap they have printed in the past like the whole WMDs in Iraq saga and the puff piece of Elizabeth Holmes they are far from a completely independent and propaganda free paper. Henry Kissinger would call the paper and have his talking point printed the next day regarding Vietnam. [1]

There is a huge conflict of access to government officials and independents of papers.

Operation Mockingbird. While the publication as a whole may not be an asset, there are most assuredly assets within its staff.
