I’m puzzled that our major national #journalism outlets, especially the resource-rich NYTimes, have given so little attention in news coverage and followup to #Florida’s book banning, speech regulation and political interference in education. Little sense of historic context and precedents, who’s affected, who’s fighting back, much more.

#DeSantis campaign coverage mentions this as political strategy only

@melaniesill They’re frightened of pissing off their triggered readers. They probably lose less audience by NOT reporting these kinds of things than they do when they report them - it’s pretty depressing.
