I’ll start:

Richard Engel

Andrea Mitchell

Christian Amanpour

Also it’s wild that they always just have like a “former CIA Director” or other open ‘former’ spooks on as commentators as if that is totally just a normal thing to do.

Death to America.

I think it is overwhelmingly less useful to try to litigate about individual people inside an apparatus rather than the apparatus itself.

Litigating on individual people is only really worthwhile if they are in a pro-social apparatus or are highly independent.

Every single person who has made repeat appearances as a talking head on CNN/MSNBC/FOX/etc (not necessarily interview subjects) is at least a Useful Idiot to a tremendous degree being strung along by corporate masters and literal feds. No one in these apparati are less an establishment tool than that, they are all bourgeois running dogs. What Rachel Maddow believes in her heart about journalistic integrity is entirely immaterial compared to that.
