one of the few people left who find it odd that anybody would think of Rolling Stone as a place of serious, quality journalism. Just because an organization has a recognizable banner doesn't mean what they report or how it is presented isn't heavily slanted, biased, agenda driven or trite. That applies to the NYT as well.

But that didn't stop him from publishing the article in a way to falsely make it look like Biden's admin was persecuting journalists.
