Every single article about Trump being “elected” Chair of the Kennedy Center must mention in the headline that Trump *fired all the Board members that wouldn’t vote for him.*
“Made Chair” is such weak, passive language that fails to call out what’s really going on.
Our media must do better.

They were prob between 50-60 when is started all it's antics.
Prior to that they watched Nightline & koppel ...
Terrible.

Happens in EVERY Banana Republic Dictatorship.
This isn’t hard.
2. “Becomes Chair” works and then you immediately explain it in the subhed.
