« Biden Condemns Campus Violence After More Than 130 Arrests at U.C.L.A. » oh, N·Y·T, for a second there i forgot that you don’t include “arrests” in your definition of “campus violence”

reading New York Times coverage right now is wild because they’re forced to interview and use the language of some combination of {out⹀of⹀touch old white man} and {staunch Zionist who thinks any criticism of a certain country in the Middle East is an attack on Jews everywhere} and then you get to the part of the article where they state Facts and they’re like “yeah conservative Jewish student organizations have been actively trying to invade encampments and picking fights with these protesters for weeks despite them mostly just barricading themselves in one place, and that’s where all the violence is coming from”

we know from Drama that Times writers and editors are given very strict guidelines on how they can cover this stuff, but it’s not like journalists don’t know what’s going on or how to get a message across
