The University of Texas at Dallas replaced three boulders — known as the Spirit Rocks — with trees, citing “extended political discourse.” Students say the quirky public square is a frequent venue for political messaging.
It's clear the Texas Tribune has picked a side from inserting an adjective into "The Oct. 7 terrorist attack, and ensuing assault on Gaza ..." I have very little remaining faith in U.S. media, corporate or otherwise. If you need a narrative with a clearly defined "good" and "bad" side, you probably aren't going to get much out of a Gaza story in the first place.
Imagine! "Extended political discourse" on a university campus. Can't have that!
has picked a side from inserting an adjective into "The Oct. 7 terrorist attack, and ensuing assault on Gaza ..."
How is that "picking a side"? It's possibly the mildest neutral way of writing about what happened, as opposed to something like "The Oct 7. freedom fighter operation, and ensuing pacification of Gaza", or similar.
