The disappearance of “developing news” is part of what made me see that our MSM is fake. It used to be that when stories broke there was a time of confusion where you’d get different and conflicting versions of events as each INDEPENDENT news org tried to figure out what was going on.
At some point they started getting their 4 am talking points and the concept of developing news disappeared almost over night.
If anything you might be able to view this contradiction positively, except it’s curious they both came out on the same day. Optimistically I’ll guess the are both reacting to the same scientific paper but they were left to interpret it themselves, and one of them fucked it up.
I’ll take it as a win, but we won’t really know for sure until we see true diversity of opinion in our news orgs. I’ll never trust them again regardless. I think it’s interesting to understand as it impacts the national discussion, so to speak.
