CBS Is About to Hand Over Its Newsroom to an Anti-Woke Crusader. You Should Be Worried.
Sheβs made a career railing against βwokeness.β Now sheβs in charge of a venerated newsroom.
now that the news is official: some thoughts on Bari Weiss taking over at CBS News, and what it means that the Free Pressβa publication that never apologizes or corrects itself when its "reporting" is ripped to shredsβis touted as a needed dose of "trust and integrity" slate.com/technology/2...

βTerrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.β

When Trump falls, as all dictators fall, all those who aligned themselves with him will bear responsibility. Their legacy as well as their childrenβs and grandchildrenβs names will be besmirched. History looks poorly on dictators.

Under Trump, Vance, Speaker of the House Johnson, Senate Majority Leader Thune, and Chief Justice Roberts, the United States has become a heavily-armed, failed state descending into totalitarianism. We beg our allies to help us.

On Wednesday, Brian Kilmeade went on national television and called for homeless people to be killed by lethal injection. "Just kill 'em," he said.
There hasn't been one word about it in The New York Times or The Washington Post or USA Today.

After Charlie Kirk's death, teachers and professors nationwide fired or disciplined over social media posts
At least a dozen faculty and staff have faced fallout over insensitive comments online.
I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"

Threaten a white person, full force of the dictatorβs system comes down on you. Threaten a person of color, no biggie, back to regular programming.

Charlie Kirk in his own words: βprowling Blacksβ and βthe great replacement strategyβ
The far-right commentator didnβt pull his punches when discussing his bigoted views on current events
Abhor the violence and murder but do not sanctify this person or claim he was moderate and good. This is not behavior to model, follow or praise.

Some news organizations have dared report the views that made Kirk famous. The hagiographers canβt even mention those views out loud, because they make clear he greatly contributed to the politics of rage, conspiracy, and violence that may have ultimately ended his life.
