Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

"Oh Tapper, you think you get Those Of Faith™ with your gotcha questions... Let me show you how a Man Of Faith™©® does it. Here, take your pick of a representative."
"Ummm ok, Saint Peter I choose you!"
"Ok and now for my response: This person is an abomination to God, a heathen, and a person without the slightest moral guidance! They are not fit to hold office!! Ok, now I choose my representative. Beezelbub I choose you!"
"Err... a literal demon?"
"Sure sure, now my rebuttal to your criticism: You see little Tapper, sometimes God chooses imperfect vessels to act through. We cannot question God's plan and it is not for us to judge. Do you see how that works little Tapper? It's called I Always Win™."
So the short answer is no?
The long answer is Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Power is more useful than morals for getting what you want.
Most of these chucklefucks probably don't have the experience necessary for these jobs. Putting morals aside they're still unqualified.
If they have morals they'll reject the job.
Just more traditional media letting these people goose step all over them and not answer questions.
Our journalists fucking suck at their god damned jobs.
Journalists are becoming rare, the ones you see, like news anchors, are just communicators.
Lmao, imagine just now figuring out that morals aren't important to Republicans.
If you ever need to ask yourself this, you ain't no friend of mine...
