I remember journalism in the 90’s claiming they were instrumental in Civil Rights. *No. Not true. Besides, Journalism is not a group. It’s a category. There is no shared glory. This isn’t Science.*
Sentences that are never true: A Profession “did” something, like *”The Baseball got caught cheating.”*
Journalism doesn’t even have a shared nomenclature system. They rarely use the word “liberal” correctly. And if your instinct is to run to the dictionary for such a term, *then you still don’t understand language.*

“The holocaust gets a bad wrap. Nobody talks about the fact that Jews were given as much free gas as they wanted. So much free gas. Free gas till the very last second of their lives. Does that sound so terrible? It sounds like a tremendous deal to me, believe me. I can think of a lot of people, beautiful smart people, who would love some free gas.” -Donald “Pedo” Trump, probably

Watching Tony Dokoupil just bend over and kiss Trump’s ass in that segment was just sad. What did he say, “it’s great we’re doing this in this anniversary”. Jesus I hope Katy freezes him out after this. What a spineless man. Man…and Gale just being silent on this, what the fuck happened CBS?

“Rape while falsely imprisoned? We’ve all heard arguments against it. But a recent survey from our special interest focus group is starting to raise eyebrows. New data suggests a population who might prefer to be physically subdued against their will, handled by a sexual predator, forced into repeated penetration, perhaps even housed without escape. When we come back, we’ll hear from experts who shed light on just how much money could be saved on meals, rent, decision making, and yes… even grooming. Are we seeing a new trend in trusting others to manage the frustration of finding long-term intimacy? That… and more when we return.”

I happened to see this this morning. Vlad and Gayle were being pretty firm in their (albeit scripted) arguments about one of the things that’s made America great was our willingness to wrestle with our past and try to better it. Then Dokoupil undercut them with some both sides shit.
John Dickerson actually made me angrier on the evening news last night. Dr. Celine Gounder was on explaining that the American College of Pediatricians had released its own guidance on children’s vaccines for parents, to counter the bone-headed nonsense RFKJr’s come up with, and Dickerson (who I normally love) said something to the effect, “So what exactly should parents take away from the back-and-forth sniping.” Jesus Fuck, man. The back-and-forth is your kid being protected against illness vs. eventually needing to go to the village barber for a bloodletting and raw milk enema.

Slavery is great! Don’t have to worry none about finances ‘cause Massa gonna take of us! So if he feels it’s right to sell one of our kids, welp that’s life. And there’s the whuppins, but best keep your mouth to youssef. And don’t run away ‘cause that’s nothin but trouble. Where you think you goin?
Don’t have to worry about old age cause with all that work, you break down and the sickness bound to get you before Father Time does.
Yessir. Slavery is the life!
Now imagine the races exchange places and Africans were coming over and stealing white people to work their land.

Watch as the TV news nets, especially cable, now debate whether slavery was good or bad, giving equal time and deference to “both sides”.
