how is that misleading reporting?
all the information - even scruddy's "corrections" - is being taken from that AP article
the headline is 100% accurate
what are they supposed to write for it to be NOT misleading, in your opinion?
DOGE Resignations
- Thread starter McLovin32
- Start date

These staffers that left were not part of the group that MUSK brought in when DOGE was created. Is that a true statement of not?
Now, if any of the young super slueths that Musk brought in started bailing because they felt something was not right...THAT would be a headline.
where does it say they were?
20+ civil servants quit DOGE...that's what the headline says and that's what happened
Remember the good old days when thewop just commented on silly threads and we didn't all know what a moron he was?

I don’t think the jury’s out on whether taking a livelihood away from someone cleaning the bathroom at Mt. Rushmore while leaving billions in Pfizer subsidies untouched is “helping the country”.
oh well then...
AP reporting is "misleading" because it didn't account for personal perceptions of who does and doesn't count as "part of DOGE"

Damn, they should have taken the early retirement. Good for us I guess, they don't seem to think to far ahead
The flood damage the D.C. swamp has inflicted requires you the strip it down to the studs before you rebuild.
Based on performance to date they don’t have many geniuses to lose.
Don't forget about Whiskey if he could ever get off this board.

Read the last part of that post and remember what happened when Skynet became self-aware.
That's the whole point, they were not "actually" with DOGE to begin with. They were there before DOGE. How can you quit something you were not really apart of?
I agree....they better dang well go after the pharma companies. The problem is that people on BOTH sides are in their back pockets. UGH
they were employed as part of the DOGE team...and then they quit
that's what the headline says and then the article discusses the nuance that you're clinging to (which would indicate it is being reported)
you're complaining that the headline states the basic facts of what happened
failing to capture your preferred portrayal of the events in the headline is not "misleading" - especially when that portrayal is provided in the body of the article
The headline misled several respondents in this thread to assume people that Musk had brought to DOGE had quit.
I think "Holdover bureaucrats resign rather than work for DOGE" would have confused less of the respondents in this thread, but wouldn't have presented the same dysfunction that the writer of the headline was seeking to portray.
what you're describing is an unwinnable battle for AP writers
people that can't be bothered to read an actual article before crying about "misleading reporting"
but fine...i know how this goes
We will have to agree to disagree. I have explained how the headline could have been less deceptive. It is your choice to move the other way.
Come on now.....the headline is what EVERYONE gravitates to. To act like it means nothing is just silly. Look what happened to Trump with the Charlottesville lie. All the headlines claimed head called neo-nazi's fine people. It was a bold faced lie. And even if they had burried the truth deep in the reporting (which they did not do) the damage would have been done. It is not hard to see how the media is spinning things like a top many, many times.
With a bunch of uncited copypastas from Tyler Durden that most people won't bother reading?
I'm sure you had this same energy when it came to Trump and Vance lying and saying that immigrants were eating cats and dogs in Ohio.
It's funny that they try to hold us to standards while the right is flooding the zone with lies.
Yup. The POTUS is the biggest ****ing liar in America, but holy shit let's hear about a misleading headline about ****ing DOGE.
we're in total agreement that it's dumb to base opinions on reporting without reading the actual reporting or try to get conclusions based solely on headlines
I don't remember the media taking Trump's claim (And, BTW, there were people reporting that whole thing about cats and dogs.....it just didn't verify) and running with it as fact like they did with the lie from Charlottesville. They called it out right away.
And, the Charlottesville lie was even worse as they had ALL seen the video of what he actually said and purposly omitted much of his statement that would have made it right.
Actually, I think the headline should be reflective of the truth. You are the one who thinks it is ok to have a misleading headline as long as somewhere within the full reporting there is a correction, which as I said, did not happen with Charlottesville.
that headline is absolutely 100% factual
you wish it was more descriptive in a very specific way ...a way that reinforces your biases
its a judgement call i guess. people that are actively searching for things to call misleading will have no problem finding them
Yes, your narrative is not what it seems. 08 Obama had to get us out of financial crisis so spending was higher. 12 Obama spent way less. Trump is the one of the worst offenders. Don't let the facts get in the way of a good story.
Misleading headline, not misleading reporting.
It was immediately obvious from the responses who couldn’t be troubled to read the actual article.
