The political press very clearly understands β€œtruth” as a social agreement, a compromise position between everyone important enough to have an opinion. It did not reflect on how this would allow dedicated liars to go all-in on lies again and again and dramatically shift the position.

Lying to your readers, for concocted strategic reasons, is deplorable.

For a journalist? Really?

Basically your only job as a journalist is to tell the truth

It’s so weird that people latched onto a bunch of mostly bullshit justifications for disliking a technology that has immediate obvious negative societal externalities. It’s made it way harder to teach writing but people scream about imaginary lakes evaporating.

Stipulating that it would be desirable for home prices to come down, presumably they aren’t going to come down without a large reduction in demand.

Columbia is the most craven university in the US right now. Students should go elsewhere as this place will not protect them.
