Fail. Their headline is so weak. crickets Nov 2022 #18

I didn't see the headline you saw, but NYT writers are being pretty direct ramen Nov 2022 #23

"Updated 11:42 pm" -- Interesting. Maybe they decided to firm things up a bit? crickets Nov 2022 #24

One headline does not negate a long slide to the right Genki Hikari Nov 2022 #45

I'll just have to disagree with that prognosis. In my experience, NPR does a pretty good job trying Martin68 Nov 2022 #51
