That question can't be answered. What do you think the topic of this piece was? The title was "President-Elect Trump". The piece was not about "let's talk about Trump as the future president". Rather, it was about, "things are going to get frighteningly bad under Trump".
Staying on topic and selective blindness are very different things. The latter was on bold display here, and is a defining characteristic of a hit piece.
