Media: STOP w/ the euphemisms! Use words that get to the heart of the issue. Use pithy, accurate words that the English language offers in abundance. RFK Jr & the Oz guy who plays a doc on TV are as described above by @andrewweinstein.bsky.social
We need to stop letting the right drag these impartial media outlets to always artificially seem balanced and fair.
You can only be non-partisan for so long before you are partisan again. These people are attacking the foundations of our nation and the foundations of truth. Call it like it is.
Admitted former Heroin addict…cocaine abuse…LSD trips….and MORE! yes, I believe in second chances, but not to head a national health administration.🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Trump is a classic example of someone who at one time was considered a scoundrel. When was the last time you heard that word used? Wouldn't it be fun if H.L. Mencken were still writing for the Baltimore Sun?
Seems this is pretty much how we ended up in this mess to begin with. Legacy media has been bending over slowly but surely for decades, and finally made it far enough during the 2016 campaign to kiss their own ass goodbye, taking the better part of reality down with them.
Yes if anyone’s been paying attention, the AP, Newsweek, CNN, CBS, NBC, the NYT, NPR, most “center left” corporate news outlets have been doing this for years.
And driving me crazy that people still patronize them as if they are doing their job in good faith
As RN, we follow evidence based science to treat patients. Will our health care system be able to safely treat the contrarians crack pot mandates? What a mess we are going to be in!

I guess ‘dead’ is too strong a word for AP. I’ll change that to AP journalism is unalive.

We prefer the more widely accepted clinical term

Hope this helps!
The crackpot picks who has power to regulate healthcare not based in science is guaranteed to kill people
We have seen how badly Trump administration handled COVID. This term there is no Dr Fauci only quacks
Guys who have opinions but no evidence. Guys who don’t wash their hands because if they don’t see the germs, they don’t exist. 🙄
