A strak reality staring us in the face with full frontal fascism poking us in the eye, is that almost all big "journalism" is revealed to have been public relations channels all along.
As Orwell said, if it doesn't upset someone, then it's not journalism but public relations.
The level of couchedness of language reached by newsrooms today is like Olympic word wrangling to avoid to have to face facts. Yes, Trump is a dictator, and Yes, democracy in the US is quickly guttering out.
