But, you know, I'm going to read another part of this letter.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 213

Quote, I offered David Shipley, who I admire greatly because, you know, he was a handpicked guy, the opportunity to lead this new chapter.

It Could Happen Here Weekly 213

I suggested to him that if the answer wasn't hell yes, then it had to be no.

After careful consideration, David decided to step away.

So, okay, what was actually happening here?

He came in, was like, our board is not fascist enough, and if you're not going to make it more fascist, then get the fuck out of the way.

And the guy he had picked to run the editorial board like three years ago went, this is unacceptable, I cannot be involved in this, and left.

And when he says Justice Warren rescinds regulations encouraging racial preferences, they're talking about anti-discrimination ordinances, right?

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 213

That's what they're actually talking about.

And the Washington Post has been tanking, effectively,

It Could Happen Here Weekly 213

In the wake of a whole bunch of right-wing editorial changes, its audience has significantly declined since this.
