I was a newspaper reporter from 1998-2018. I also worked in radio. I went to UK and had a degree in History and one in Journalism. I can tell you absolutely NONE of these characters could have passed any of the classes I took. They're not Journos. They're activists.
My boss sent me to cover Hillary when she came to our town. I protested. He said "I know you don't like her, but I know you're fair, you'll only report what she says."
Those days are gone because of Bill Clinton and his Telecommunications Act. It removed all the restrictions on how many newspapers, radio stations and TV stations 1 corporation could own.
Before it passed over 50 corporations owned less than half our media. My j school professors worried about that.
By 2016 6 corporations owned over 98% of our media.
Now 4 corporations own 98% of our media.
Outside of small town independently owned newspapers and radio stations there is NO SUCH THING AS "NEWS" IN THIS COUNTRY ANYMORE.
It's just Corporate Propaganda & marketing.
Now you know why I detest that Madcow guy on BS Nlow. He represents everything wrong with an industry I gave the best years of my life to.

Here's another one...

FBI Director Kash Patel on Monday morning filed a lawsuit seeking $250 million in damages from The Atlantic magazine for defamation from an article that alleges he abuses alcohol.

Patel, over the weekend, had vowed to sue The Atlantic for the article published on Friday, which carried the headline “Kash Patel’s Erratic Behavior Could Cost Him His Job.”

“The FBI director has alarmed colleagues with episodes of excessive drinking and unexplained absences,” the article’s subhed says.

Patel’s 19-page suit was filed in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.

In addition to The Atlantic, the civil complaint names the article’s author, Sarah Fitzpatrick, as a defendant.

Patel’s suit said it seeks to hold the defendants “accountable for a sweeping, malicious, and defamatory hit piece.”

What would be perfect is if Trump brings a clip of the infamous 0bama mic drop with these same whiners laughing it up. He would then be able to get a new video of them crying... LOL
