WSJ, FT, BBC, Politico
>Re Sarah Jeong - ok they have a columnist who dislikes Trump but that's hardly a very rare viewpoint in the US these days.
Hating white people is not the same thing as disliking Trump. Criticizing Trump is okay, being racist is not.
- untog 8y agoJeong's tweets were very, very obviously jokes. To suggest it's evidence of "hating white people" is just parroting manufactured outrage. In any case. WSJ isn't more objective that NYT. It's just further to the right, which is why it appears objective to someone on the right.

- maxerickson 8y agoHave you written somewhere about why you believe that context is not a relevant aspect of communication? (That is, putting the tweets into a different context doesn't demonstrate anything about what was meant when they were twote.)
