no coverage on the corruption and theft of taxpayer funds, lots of little hit pieces and whataboutisms

verge, atlantic, wapo, ny times and honestly most of them can just be discarded

yeah.

super clear litmus tests right now for media, politicians, and people.

continually surprised on the people front, usually boils down to they don't like the people behind the thing they allegedly support

doge is the coolest thing ive seen happen in a government in my lifetime. using tech to track, analyze, and decipher government spending at high speed? amazing.

Indeed. That's why nostr and 4chan are the only places for news. Granted. You still have to filter for lies and psyops.

This could be known about the NYT a decade ago, by any reasonably observant reader. Even as a lefty at the time, it was clearly a pump by the liberal establishment. Same with NPR, Atlantic, etc. It was so OBVIOUS. The surprise around this is…surprising.
