A Vox piece insisted that "student debt forgiveness isn’t happening”--but didn't disclose the author's ties to the student loan industry.

    Huh. I’d thought of Vox as being a reasonably reliable site, but handing a page over to a shill and not even telling readers he’s a shill… Jeez, even Fox News identifies the shills with a chyron.

      It took a pretty big downward turn when the exodus of founders and longtime staff occurred a couple years ago. Ezra Klein, Matt Yglesias, Dara Lind, and Jane Coaston leaving were all major hits that the place never recovered from.

      Hell, they took a bunch of Sam Bankman-Fried’s money and then reported on how cool effective altruistically is.
