What is happening with editorial boards is not normal. You need to understand this first.

They are not part of the newsroom, so anyone telling you that is lying. What happened at the LAT and WaPo are the beginning. Have you not read history? They come for you. You just think it's more steps away.

This is not where I'm going to provide media literacy. We're a bit past that.

So you’re speaking only to people who are not aware of the #1 or #2 biggest story of the last 24 hours, but are eager to get themselves fully up to speed on it from somewhere else, based on only the vaguest of hints?

Well at least you got a chance to huff your own farts.

Let's be a bit more careful than that.

The level of self-reflection you exhibit in this thread is absolutely abysmal.
