VIDEO : New York Times Criticized For ?Homophobic? Trump-Putin Cartoon

The New York Times has come under fire for its newest edition of its ?Trump Bites? op-ed series.
The cartoon has run an extended joke suggesting a gay romance between Trump and Putin.
Many people have slammed the series for being homophobic.
