well, like it says right in the tweet, he's Joe Ricketts' lawyer and the president of Joe Ricketts' holding and investment company

I'm sure that has nothing to do with why he's writing an article about how Joe Ricketts is a hero and champion of modern journalism and needs to be defended from the slanderous accusations that he shuttered two of his media companies just because the workers at those companies voted to unionize

the issue is that wsj literally gave his lawyer free PR space to write an unapologetic puff piece

the failing new york times publishes an opinion article so bad that their own twitter lies about the content

https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/935504820571639808

despite what the tweet says, the article has nothing at all to do with Moore. it's just a straight-up "but what about :qq:false rape accusations:qq: against those poor defenseless powerful men" piece, about a third of which is spent defending Al Franken and openly dismissing the accusations against him as fabrications made up by the far right and radical feminists

their opinion pages twitter loves to tweet out the same article thirty times under a different subtitle to trick people into clicking on it again. iirc the original author's quote is something like "maybe we shouldn't believe women? :thunk:"

I don't understand why anyone still defends Al Franken when he already admitted to the allegation and apologized for it. Whether it's severe enough for him to resign is worthy of discussion, but not whether or not the allegation is true.

This isn't hard. We should be able to find politicians who aren't loving sex groping weirdos. Any ones we do have that are sex groping weirdos should loving resign or be thrown out on their rear end. You want your constituents to trust in their representative and you can't trust people who are sex groping weirdos.

This really isn't hard, but I've seen so many idiots fail to come to this very simple and obvious conclusion.

it would be more difficult if franken was from an R-governor state where his senate seat would be filled by a shitbag who would use it to make life even worse for women (and 90% of men) in america but he's from minessota so there's literally no reason not to can his rear end and replace him with someone clean

keeping franken there actually serves the purpose of making it easier for a republican in the future to take a historically safe blue seat

un-serious is a weird criticism to make; I assume this is some sort of code for "does not sit with the cool kids" when the NYT makes it

It's also a bad criticism, like saying a politician/politicians "play politics" with something, as if the person saying it isn't engaging in politics themselves
