    Oh I can explain this one. I’ve been reading the NYT for a while, this is how they refer to everyone. You’ll see Mr. Trump, Mr. Biden, Mr. McCarthy. In general it’s always like this.

      Yep. NYT style guide. All people are “Mr” or “Ms”

      Typical AP style guide omits the title except for the first reference to a doctor, or if it’s the president.
