The headline for the NPR article in question here is:
“Can Trump’s Second Act Work for the Working Class While Giving Back to His Super Donors?"
Betteridge’s law of headlines applies.
It’s a general rule of thumb that if the headline asks a question the article will be a bunch of fluff where the answer ultimately becomes “no”
“Did we just break light speed?” Article talks about an experiment that on first evidence shows information travel faster than light. But then reveals there was a fatal flaw “turns out c is still a universal speed limit”
“Did we just make fusion work?” Again experiment shows that for 2 nano seconds output surpassed input, but it would hold, so “turns out fusion is still in it’s infancy”
Asking a question in the headline is journalistic click bait. Because the answer is no the headline can’t make a claim without loosing integrity, but questions look like claims and allow the author a lot more freedom.
somehow I hold on to hope the the headline was an informed, editorial jab. fucking sigh
Sounds more like the article actually says that his voters put faith in him.
Though with him looks like media constantly does the mistake of listening to what he says instead observing what he does.
what the fuck, NPR?
NPR trying to kiss the ring?
They’re settling into those accusations of being state-affiliated media.
Just a day after reports the FCC is after them? Interesting timing
I had to read that headline and the community name like 4 times. This is so fucking onion-ey it’s not even funny
