Media has been sanewashing the #BloviatingOrangeBuffoon for 8 years now. The more outre his utterances, the more vigorous washing they have to do.
It's insane that he will be President again. It should never have happened. The #brokenTimes is just one spoke in the #CrazyWheel that got him there.

Do not normalize discourse around invading Canada or Greenland.

Do not express opinions about it as if it were a normal political topic to discuss over Sunday dinner.

That is sanewashing.

It should never become a thing anyone thinks or speaks about with quotidian ease or pseudo-intellectual fervor.

A Baker special: He wonders at Trump making his felonies a "little thing" while himself making it a little thing, "already baked into the system." Thus the #BrokenTimes trivializes the crimes of the president.

The #BrokenTimes uses passive voice on Alito's behalf. He should not have taken the phone call. He should have said it would be improper to do so. But to him, nothing is improper. And the Times gives him slack.
How a Phone Call Drew Alito Into a Trump Loyalty Squabble The phone call centered on a former law clerk of Justice Alito’s. In the eyes of the Trump team, the clerk still needed to prove his loyalty to the president-elect.

The #BrokenTimes is sanewashing war. Why might Trump want to invade a NATO ally? We'll explain Lebensraum while we're at it. This is how they are covering fascism.

#brokentimes

I'm screaming at my screen. "Emboldened Trump." "Territorial Expansion." HE THREATENS WAR AGAINST ALLIES--not to mention Gaza--and these are the #BrokenTimes' latest white-gloved euphemisms for totalitarianism. This is how they cover fascism, covering it with niceties.

They used to turn every Trump tweet into a "news" story. Now they're doing that with Musk. No, his every blathering is not news. Stop amplifying him. He has his own megaphone. #BrokenTimes
In About-Face, Musk Trashes Farage, U.K.’s Anti-Immigrant Populist Elon Musk, the billionaire backer of Donald J. Trump, had been promoting Nigel Farage. But on Sunday Mr. Musk said Mr. Farage “doesn’t have what it takes.”

The #BrokenTimes wants Democrats to wear their hair-shirt. Will it engage in a "broad reckoning" for news media's role in fascism's takeover? But no....
As Democrats Reel, Two Front-Runners Emerge in a Leadership Battle The race to lead the Democratic National Committee centers on the favorites, Ken Martin and Ben Wikler, but the party’s infighting over them looks nothing like a broad reckoning with its 2024 defeats.
#brokentimes

A little late! And once again, Baker the #BrokenTimes forfeit an opportunity for journalistic self-reflection: media as accessory to Trump's lies. But no....
Trump Sees the U.S. as a ‘Disaster.’ The Numbers Tell a Different Story. President Biden is bequeathing his successor a nation that by many measures is in good shape, even if voters remain unconvinced.

FFS. The #BrokenTimes continues to insist on equating "working class" with "white."

This should be a story about media's failures to adequately inform the public but, of course, the last place to find that would be in the #BrokenTimes.

#BrokenCNN, #BrokenPost, #BrokenTimes sanewash him. But now it's not just his wacky babbling; it represents a threat.



#brokentimes #brokenpost #BrokenCNN

I'm screaming. *Now* the #BrokenTimes calls the economy "remarkable" and reports on Trump's threats to it. Before the election, they were shouting about the price of eggs.
Where Does a ‘Remarkable’ U.S. Economy Go From Here? America’s economy is far outstripping its peers, but there are serious risks, including from the president-elect.

The #BrokenTimes thinks fascism is entertaining.

What's shocking about @oliverdarcy's scoop about Paul Krugman's regrettable exit from the #BrokenTimes is that columnists are now edited. How do so many crap columns make it through? Maybe they edit only the liberals.
The Krugman-Kingsbury Kerfuffle
https://www.status.news/p/paul-krugman-new-york-times-exit
But things changed in recent years. In 2021, Kingsbury was named Opinion editor and, under her leadership, columns have started receiving a far more thorough edit. Editors may challenge the premise of an author’s column or assertions made within them. Moreover, columnists are not just permitted to write about anything they desire. Sometimes Opinion leadership vetoes pitches.

The Krugman-Kingsbury Kerfuffle

Paul Krugman grew frustrated at The New York Times over editing measures implemented in recent years under Opinion boss Kathleen Kingsbury.

"Trump remains defiant" is a forever headline, never new--which is to say it is not news, for defiance against all norms, laws, and morals is the point of him. Learn that and then report from there, #BrokenTimes.

"Bravado, bombast and baggage." Fuck your alliterative cuteness, #BrokenTimes. He is a dangerous extremist. Say so.

It is a banner day for #BrokenTimes normalization of extremism and obeisance in advance. These headlines are subtle and insidious in their acceptance. There is an editorial agenda at work here. They call it news judgment.

The #BrokenTimes headline on $95 turkeys & leaves an inflationary impression, while at the link NBC reports that Thanksgiving dinner is historically affordable this year: better than in 40 years. And they wonder why people are ignorant about the economy.

why a pasture-raised Thanksgiving turkey costs $95

Grocery costs for Thanksgiving dinner are historically affordable

Don’t be fooled by sticker prices. After adjusting for inflation, holiday meal staples are at their cheapest level in 39 years, except for the pandemic-hit 2020.

Subtle, nefarious #BrokenTimes normalization here, treating opposition to racism, misogyny, fascism as a bothsidesed condition. Note it's the liberal woman here who is made to move.
