There were a couple of AP articles I saw earlier that stood out as being even worse. First, there’s this one that I objected to and have been arguing about in the comments.

• Nearly 40% of contracts canceled by DOGE are expected to produce no savings

It’s infuriating how the consent is being manufactured right before our eyes and people just flat-out refuse to see it.

Second, compare this group of headlines on the same topic:

• Federal technology staffers resign rather than help Musk and DOGE (AP)
• More than 20 Musk staffers resign over Doge’s ‘dismantling of public services’ (The Guardian)
• 21 DOGE staffers resign as they refuse to ‘dismantle critical public services’ (The Wrap)

It really stands out when they’re juxtaposed next to each other, doesn’t it?

While I’m at it, I’d also like to mention this video I saw the other day. It’s mostly off-topic (it’s about NYC’s new congestion charge and comparing it to London’s experience implementing the concept), but it gives a really good example of how propagandized US news can be even on something that isn’t overtly partisan the way Musk/DOGE topics are.
