If they did that, ClayTravis would probably say, "the New York Times shrinks picture of Trump under the guise of including a flag."

"Assassination attempt" takes up a lot more space than "shooting" in the headline. What difference would it make if they said, "assassination attempt," instead of "shooting," anyway? I don't get the objection to the word "shooting." Isn't that accurate?

Trump was not assassinated. He got shot. But he was not assassinated, because he's still alive. There was an attempted assassination, but if you need to make a headline about it, you have to save space. That's all they were doing- making a headline.

'She was guarding Cheetos': Elon Musk slams Secret Service chief Kimberly Cheatle after attack on Trump – Firstpost
I don't know about her background besides being the former Senior Director of Global Security for Pepsi. Does she have any tactical training or experience, or is she a career bureaucrat?

If they did that, ClayTravis would probably say, "the New York Times shrinks picture of Trump under the guise of including a flag." That's an interesting prediction. Maybe I will, maybe I won't. I enjoy the NY Times. I don't agree with their editorials, and I see that they come at things from a left of center point of view, and that infects their news coverage sometimes, but there is so much interesting content they put out that has nothing to do with politics, that you won't see anywhere else. And most other publications are so dumbed down in order to get readers, they are very boring and worthless. Besides, do you really want to cut yourself off from ever reading any opinions that conflict with yours? I don't. I think I have the ability to read opinion pieces that I disagree with without becoming infected somehow. Aren't you interested in how other people think? Left wingers are not always wrong, just like right wingers are not always wrong.

Which is all fine and good, but they tout themselves as arbiters of truth while actively omitting facts which don't support their views. It is no longer a journalistic standard. It is no longer a newspaper. It's an opinion website on par with Politico, et al.

And most other publications are so dumbed down in order to get readers, they are very boring and worthless. EVERY reporter has a point of view. We ALL have a point of view. You would write a story one way, because you have a point of view as to what facts are really important. And someone else with a different point of view would select different facts to report because they honestly think they are reporting the most important facts. It's not dishonesty that causes people to do this. It's limited space. They have to write a column, not a book. But that's the reason you have to read more than one source. No one has a monopoly on the truth, not the New York Times, not Fox News, not News Max. They all report what they think is important. People tend to think that publications that agree with them politically are reporting just the facts, and publications that disagree with them politically are biased. It's unavoidable. Bias is unavoidable. Two people will see the same thing and report a completely different story, because what they see in filtered through what they believe. It's unavoidable. It's everywhere.

They look more like someone pretending to be SS for Halloween or some stripper theme. |
