“BOMBSHELL! BREAKING! MASSIVE! Words that have lost all sense of impact here on FR.”

Hey, I didn’t write the dumb headline.

But it is a very important article.

... and my opinion of journalism is far lower than my opinion of used car salesmen. Lower than even my opinion of the legal profession.

It’s an important article if and only if you thought beforehand that journalism and the Democrat Party were independent of each other. Which is a pretty naive thing to believe at this late date.

In the real world, this is strictly “Dog Bites Man.”

In principle it does have value, tho - if it can be used in court to prove the interdependence of an entity which claims to be objective and the open Democrats.

The government has no business at all taking any action which is predicated on the assumption that journalism is objective. And that fact delegitimates the Federal Election Commission, for one example. It also delegitimates any government involvement in education which teaches that falsehood. In fact, it arguably delegitimates any government involvement in journalism schools as such.
