This honestly seems like it's taking their reader's intelligence for granted. When people see content from the NYT's they know the point of view it's coming from. I get that the actions of Time's reporters reflects on the paper as a whole but pretending that reader's don't understand that journalists have opinions takes them for granted.

I believe you're misusing take for granted here. To take for granted is to assume that something is true. So your first sentence would read "This honestly seems like... assuming their readers are intelligent" which seems to be the opposite of your point.
