I fucking hate both sides-ism. I can do better...

60 Minutes could have done America a favor. They could have redone the Citations Needed episode word-for-word with video presented by Adam and Nima.

I thought that project took the bag and ran years ago

Before today I don't remember the last time I looked at the Wikipedia page. About a year ago? Anyway - at that time the page was pretty snarky for Wikipedia. It had stuff like... to date the university remains unaccredited -and- the university has no formal campus. Right-wingers must have been annoyed but what could they do? The comments were accurate and acceptable.

Now right-wing editors have tried to make the uni seem like an actual university.

The University of Austin (UATX) is a private liberal arts university located in Austin, Texas. The university has established a campus in downtown Austin's Scarbrough Building, and enrolled its first undergraduate cohort in the fall of 2024.

UATX is not accredited, and its students are not eligible for Federal Student Aid. However, it is approved to grant bachelor’s degrees by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. The founding class has been offered free tuition.

It's very useful to show an actual building as a form of misdirection and PR. The page is still funny if you parse it carefully. "The university has established a campus [in a] building," which surely means they rent a floor or two and that's the entire "campus" of their "university". By square footage I'd bet it's about a 1/10th (if not far smaller) than the size of the average community college in Texas.
