    I generally listen to their audio stuff pretty religiously, and podcasts like The Daily were fairly reliably reporting on Trump’s March toward fascism. They would even straight up use the work “fascism.”

    That said, the NYT makes a lot of stuff, so maybe I missed out on something. I feel like their content adequately spooked me about what Trump’s plans were, and they motivated me to travel to a swing state to door knock.

      I listen to the daily and even now they still use euphemisms for Trump’s lies instead of calling them lies. I understand it’s because you can’t know intent but it’s still annoying.

      That actually reminds me, my point should be expanded. Only a bit though it’s weed o clock.

      What was most amazing to me was the freedom they seem to have given to opinion columnists that did call things out. Just watching rss feeds on Lemmy every day and night on Lemmy showed a crazy contrast between opinion and the edited/published bulk. Which is kinda good and normal, the surprise is they weren’t washing opinion too maybe like WaPo.
