The Dutch version of the BBC (very simply put) has started consistently stating in every article about Trump that he has a history of lying and saying nonsense. It's really satisfying.

"President Trump, who often lies, said that..."

It's a small thing, but it cheers me up.

@thomholwerda @User47 I wish an English-speaking media outlet on this side of the Atlantic had the guts to do that.

@mlanger @thomholwerda NPR had gotten more and more aggressive here the past year. Good on them. Even on the hourly newscast! Stuff like “continued to air old grievances and spread widely debunked falsehoods” good for the heart

@User47 @thomholwerda At this point, NPR has nothing to lose — except, of course, their FCC license. But I would contribute quite a bit of money to NPR to help them fight a scenario like that.
