I'll stack reporters at the NYT & NPR against a certain suck up newsletter writers any day, and now we have two very solid reports about Will Lewis trying to kill stories about him. www.npr.org/2024/06/06/n...

But many of the reporters on both of those news organizations' politics desks are horrendous, and suck up to fascists. The New York Times' politics desk and opinion section are both catastrophically bad (far worse than they ever have been) and are doing more to bring down America than Fox News is.

I've been critical of NPR for a good while but they absolutely did the right and best thing here.

"Lewis comes from a different tradition." I feel like that is an astonishingly nice way to put it
