As the Trump era ends, one thing I'd like to see in media is a lot of the wrongest people supplanted by a lot of the rightest people.
It's so simple in an age of infinite records. Just give everyone who was right as early as 2015 and was ignored and shut down and censored and edited down the jobs of the people who were wrong as late as 2020 and were boosted and amplified and promoted.
You can't work in media and demand accountability from Republicans without fighting for accountability within media itself.

How do the pro-Iraq War people still have better jobs than the antiwar people? How do the Trump minimizers still have better jobs than the alarmists?
The people whose foresight and moral clarity and courage were most vindicated by this era do not, in general, have the best jobs.

This is a huge problem for the media, and our version of the country's broader accountability crisis.
