When it comes to “simplest and most likely explanation,” the bad faith assumption is now the leading choice with the current regime.

  The GP comment mentions policy. I think you’re downvoted for trying to grow the scope to include all of Trump’s poems, homilies, and philosophical musings.

  This is pretty obviously one more step in an effort to make sure that all coverage of U.S. military actions is positive and under the control of the administration. It's also part of a more recent push to make sure that Iran war coverage is positive. See the head of the FCC threatening to revoke broadcast licenses over Iran war coverage.

  Although you're being sarcastic, that is actually is a pretty fair description, on current evidence.

  This person's ridiculous comment is a fantastic example of bad faith. Whataboutism, putting words in my mouth, and a singularly irritating (willful?) ignorance of current events. The person who posted this is perhaps not already aware of: - The FCC chair Brandon Carr threatening broadcasters to cover the war correctly, or else lose their "license" - Federal judges repeatedly calling out the admin for ignoring court orders, bypassing regulation, and arbitrarily prosecuting political enemies (Jerome Powell being only the latest failed attempt) - Hegseth saying he can't wait for David Ellison to take over CNN so the coverage improves If they were aware of these things, I would expect them to recognize a LITTLE significance in the removal of a commitment to 1A principles from a publication owned by the government.

    They’re aware but it won’t matter. For all their accusations of TDS everyone on this forum can clearly see how deranged they are. It’s a cult and you’re seeing the adherents act like cultists here.

      Indeed. I was trying set an example of what good faith looks like, but not for their benefit.
