The homosexual man has agreed to a lie detector test(next Tuesday) and is suing said candidate for harrassment and trying to silence him. In the third you have a rehashed story of suspected adultery that is 8 years old with no witnesses who claim to seeing any wrong doing. O and the third involves a Republican.

Naturally you report on the Republican. Does anybody still believe that the media is unbiased?
Not that it anywhere approaches what you are suggesting (inventing??), but if I'm not mistaken the Times had a cover story of Obama's drug use from decades earlier a couple of weeks ago. Odd that something he admitted to and is well known required a front page story to rehash the issue.
