      It does matter to highlight her idiocy to the parts of the country not in the cult.

      The journalist does, probably. But this isn’t an opinion piece where they get to characterize what they assume her corrupt intentions to be. They’re reporting on the exchange, which all happened as described. They threw in his response, where he pointed out that she’s doing it for sound bites while praising and working with the EPA behind closed doors. What more can the journalist say? This isn’t a twitter post…but it is the independent. Which isn’t exactly much better. But it still needs to have the appearance of journalistic standards

        The entire reason this headline exists is because it gets clicks and it makes people feel better than Boebert (which doesn’t take much admittedly). It makes us feel like we accomplished something and that she will be laughed out of the room, yet despite all the mockery and laughing she is still here after years.

        I don’t know if you have worked in a newsroom or as a journalist, but no, it is not as prescriptive as you’re making it out to be. Especially not the independent
