The most impressive thing about Bari is her ability to violate ethical principles while indignantly claiming to defend them.
Weiss concluded: “We need to be able to make every effort to get the principals on the record and on camera. To me, our viewers come first, not a listing schedule or anything else. And that is my North Star, and I hope it's the North Star of every person in this newsroom.”

It is especially revealing of Miller's obliviousness that he is making a "of course you'd refuse to house the stranger" claim *the week of Christmas*, which for everything else about it is fundamentally a story of hospitality denied then recieved. All nativism and no nativity for thise ghoul.

Stephen Miller finds it impossible for anyone else to consider immigrants as human beings so he's happy to go on air and say "would those journalists host the people we deported for a night to keep them out of torture prison?" as though getting people out wasn't exactly the point of the reporting.

there is literally no engineering or science profession other than mechanical engineers which is even close to parity. tech workers literally donate to Democrats over Republicans by a factor of 17:1. and that 1 is almost entirely executives.

you have to imagine that this probably also happens when there doesn't happen to be a Herald reporter randomly sitting there to see it happen
"A Miami Herald reporter witnessed the agents forcefully removing Dayana — who is 4-feet, 11-inches tall and weighs 85 pounds — from her white Toyota Corolla. The footage shows Dayana yelling at the reporter to help her and that she was a United States citizen"
only a bit above the paywall but you get the horrible gist www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

These declines are MASSIVE.
And the comparative silence in media coverage is absolutely DAMNING.
“Why are ppl always so afraid of crime?”
THIS is why. When crime goes up, media trips over itself to report it.
Falls to pre-war (!!) levels? Just CRICKETS.

I count 10 cities in 2025 that are on track to have the fewest murders since at least 1970. Newark is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1956 (though only have data through Oct this year) and San Francisco is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1942.
