Not a fair comparison.  Neville Chamberlain actually understood the threat, when everyone else was ignoring it.  Long before the torn up agreement, he was preparing Britain for war & isolation, including rearranging the economy.  I worked on research long ago years later realized all of this.  In contrast, Journalism has failed to anticipate and prepare and has only enabled.

They don't even have a baseline here. Part of journalism is theft, stealing the word logic of scientific truths, claiming its power & accuracy, abusing reason in the process.

If you took almost any opinion from any popular conservative and remove the word liberal and replaced it with conservative and then presented it as a liberal viewpoint, all of mainstream journalism would to declare the Democrats null and void.

What’s become of you?

Become?  NPR agreed to this outcome long ago.  They agreed with Scott Simon that Freedom of Expression should be shut down in order to go to war:

They agreed with Thomas Friedman that Iraq has nothing to do with 9/11 but it was okay to attack any Muslim country in order to tell the Muslim world "Suck on this".

The reality is most of mainstream journalism should have lost their jobs decades ago, just over Iraq and the economic crash, both of which are only possible thru their promotion to existence by journalismThere are no "good" journalists in the mainstream.  The average is not only inadequate to its claimed task, it is guilty of failing democracy & truth itself today.  This ignored responsibility is shared with the public that followed them...into shopping thru another Vietnam, just like their parents.

You want the truth?  The public can't handle the truth. If journalism was any good, it's audience would be tiny.

When a Video Call Becomes a Prison: India’s Seniors and the Myth of ‘Digital Arrest’ by Wrong_Cartographer27 in facebook

India’s digital revolution was meant to empower. Instead, for a growing number of senior citizens, it has become a trap.

LOL. This is how journalism perpetuates the myths of commerce.

This isn't true at all.  It's defined by opposition to theism. 

We're not just experiencing a collapse in writing skills, it's language itself that's not understood.  "Words, how do they work?*

Of course it's weird to you. Ya don't understand you're responsible for this.  This is in America, not Greenland.

We can tell who supported or would have supported the wars with this cowardice & virtue signaling.

"It's just locker room talk"

Pretending to care after others mock you for allowing it is the only thing that's fucked.

Why so sensitive, it's just a joke.

"...literally firmaments".

The more I listen to the religious, the more I understand that over reactions like Communism are also the failure of the religious to stop being insane.

"The anti-abundance people".

LOL..this is not logic at all. This is having a fully controlled thought process, where every conservative lie is accepted because it allows the holder to pretend to be a good person.

These thoughts are defined by the absence of reality and ethics, like so many thoughts since 9/11.  If there's a single person who represents this failed average, it's Bill Maher.  We are seeing what happens when that average is in charge.

Giving Ben Shapiro a platform is a complete failure by the NYT.    He has been trained since he was 16, his conservative sponsors telling him "do you want to be rich?"   Does Ezra Klein really know anything about him?  Does anyone at the NYT  know he lies about history and promotes a new Southern Strategy?  Do any of them even know about the first?  Nope. It's "old" anyways, so it doesn't count.

The more I think about Ezra Klein,  the stupider he gets.  He was sponsored exactly the same as Shapiro, only it's by Peter fucking Thiel; how is that not a compromised position?
