I tend to agree with that, there’s no excuse for the enemedia aiding the enemy.
The beauty of implementing those effective WW II standards is that it would be almost impossible for the Left/MSM to argue against them. All the President would have to do is say "If it was good enough and the right thing to do for FDR, one of America's greatest wartime leaders, then it's good enough for us now."
This would require, of course, a President with the courage to confront the Left/media/Democrats, make his case forcefully and directly to the American people, and stand firm in the face of the inevitable media hysteria and hissy fit they would pitch. Unfortunately, we didn't have a President who was willing to what was necessary.
Perhaps one day we'll have such a man or woman as President...
