How is that the headline? Not that “the president’s priorities are fucked”, but that he used a naughty word in private when he was pissed?
The 4th estate was left unguarded. Allowed to be slurped up by large corporate interests. Then gutted, consolidated, and replaced with a ton of AI that will spew whatever it’s Masters want.
There isn’t one single large media outlet I could endorse to anyone. Because this is what they are at best. At worst they are Fox news/oann.
WaPo got bought out and just ran quite a brave article on how they’re about to be hollowed out.
I saved the authors names for when they get fired. Maybe I can follow them wherever they end up.
Yep it’s sad on one hand to see the old institutions fall. But there is some hope. Journalists don’t NEED them any more to reach their audience. Largely it was for prestige and reputation that they were still held in any esteem. And that’s being thrown away.
I would still like to see some sort of association/group arise. Vetting every journalist individually by every reader is out of the question. I’m sure it will happen eventually.
Turns out journalists still need to eat, though.
Absolutely. Which is why it’s important for groups and associations like that to exist to help and let people know which ones are worth patronage.
I’m with you. Trump disgusts me more than any human being alive, but I wish we could keep the complaints to the things that actually matter. I don’t care about his odd use of bronzer, his hair, the size of his hands, what he eats, how much profanity he uses in private meetings, or any of that crap. I care that he will 100% put making a buck over the good of the country, doesn’t think laws apply to him, is a racist and a misogynist, and stuff that actually matters for the head of a world power.
“The president was irate, saying that I could not keep doing this to him,” Fauci wrote, according to The Times.
“He said he loved me, but the country was in trouble, and I was making it worse. He added that the stock market went up only 600 points in response to the positive Phase 1 vaccine news, and it should have gone up 1,000 points, and so I cost the country ‘one trillion dollars,’” Fauci reportedly said.
Priorities huh.
Maybe my ratings will go up if we all inject bleach.
The Hill buried the lede for agitprop.

To be fair, “Trump Took COVID Response Personally” doesn’t do much either.
Edit: grammar
wait… we’re not supposed to use expletives at work?!
I work in food service, expletives are the language of the kitchen.
I work in software, expletives are sometimes used directly in the code
Fuck that shit.
Hey now! Language!
“Fuck that noise”
And other bombs in his Depends™
I hope the orange man has a debilitating stroke, but why would I GAF if he used the F bomb?
Wow… can we focus on the actual outrageous and horrible things this man did… Like commit fellonies for instance.
I mean he has done and said so much actual fucked up shit, it already waters down the impact, no need to contribute to it being diluted further…
I think that fact that he’s a convicted fellon that won’t suffer any kind of consequences at all is much more relevant than him saying fuck a few times on a phone call.
Christ what a waste of bandwidth posting this bullshit.
I literally couldn’t give a frenchman’s fuck.
Expletives aren’t necessarily an issue. I hear Uncle Joe has a sailor mouth too, that doesn’t mean anything.
The REASON he was swearing… that’s the important part.
You might even say it’s a big fucking deal. ;)
