When my father was faculty at Cornell he was stopped by the police chief in the street & asked who he was & where he was going. When he balked at the fact that no one but him, an Arab man, was being asked, the chief said “I’m just protecting students” Same guy failed to investigate 7 rapists.

Right, as predicted they'll get rid of progressive and pro-environment programming. Because Paramount/CBS/Warner has been taken over by one of Donald Trump's blow-buddies. They're doing what CBS has been doing to its journalists--ending anything not on the order of Fox News.

The White House says it banned Politico for using anonymous sources. One of the examples it cited was their own background briefing in which the White House itself provided the anonymous official. @scottnover.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

washingtonpost.com

The White House banned Politico, citing anonymous sources. It provided the quotes.

In a letter defending its ban of Politico, the White House critiqued a report based on a press call it conducted, where reporters were told not to name the speaker.
