Cutting weather forecasting services in a time of severe climate events is also evil. Straight out of the Project 2025 playbook.

"Capitalism’s grow-or-die imperative stands radically at odds with ecology’s imperative of interdependence and limit. The two imperatives can no longer coexist with each other; nor can any society founded on the myth that they can be reconciled hope to survive. Either we will establish an ecological society or society will go under for everyone, irrespective of his or her status."

Ursula K. Le Guin

American media also disgraced themselves at the G7 in Canada. Trump's performance was truly pathetic & embarrassing. Pushing Putin talking points, re-writing history on why Russia was kicked out of the G7, fumbling a simple photo op by dropping papers on the ground and watching while the UK PM scrambled to save him, mistaking the UK for the EU, and fleeing before Zelensky's arrival. A total gong show. All normalized as just another day in Trumpland.

The Trump White House is the Fox White House. A reality TV show. Other media are bit players.
