Gotcha!
A case of real journalism just happened!
That's not true...the WSJ is much more conservative than the NYT and Rupert Murdoch is a social acquaintance of Trump's. They may not agree 100% on politics but Murdoch doesn't despise him.
The seven countries are warzones and/or sponsors of terrorism. You darned well should be scrutinizing anyone coming in from there. And anyone traveling back and forth should come in for close attention.
I wonder if they know who their boss is?
I you hire people out of JOURNALISM SCHOOL, you get flaming leftists. I saw it clear as day when I was in college...it was a conservative college (very conservative), but it had a “Journalism School” full of leftists, publishing disgusting things in the school newspaper. Everyone who published, but was not a ‘journalism’ major was fine, sometimes liberal, but always RESPECTFUL of our side.
One would think that the WSJ would have figured that out by now. If they want to hire people more balanced, perhaps they should only require a 4-year degree (so they know they can read and write), and then have them take the SAT or GRE and if they get a decent score on the Verbal section (proving they can read and write), then HIRE THOSE PEOPLE...but newspapers that want be balanced really need to get away from Journalism/Communications majors, they are simply HORRIBLE PEOPLE.
When I was a regular reader, I used wonder how they could allow Alexander Cockburn to spew his vitriol against common sense policies and reality.
I have not liked Baker’s stewardship on many politically charged things, so I am happy to see him finally take a stand against his staff.
I think he “gets it”, it’s not a “Muslim Ban”.
A “ban” that is temporary and applies to all of 14% of the “Muslim Majority” countries in the world, and in that far, far less than 14% of the global Muslim population, is OBVIOUSLY NOT a “Muslim Ban”.
Liberal-tarians. Globalists.
