Almost all Media has been hijacked by Radical, Far Left Marxists.
That's not new in America. It has been happening since the 1960's, but Americans in general are so naive regarding to ideologies that they always say "That will never happen to us"......well....Communism is already here to stay. Trump is the only one fighting the Communism but all politicians including the ones with the GOP are traitors at some degree. Too late. Just be prepared for the new normality for USA that is Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, China and the rest of the Islamist countries. You all will be uniformed, with your pocket card to buy your rationed food whenever available, riding by bus ( no more cars ) , no private properties, your gold will be confiscated, you won't have any more a vacation property, you will need a special pass to travel more than 100 miles from your living address, your guns will be confiscated, and everything you need will be given by the local government authorities if they think you deserve it and you have a good behavior according to the government ideological standards. If you refuse to be Communist you won't have even the right to receive or to buy your food.

It will never get that far, there are over 400 million guns in American right now, more than 1 per person. Any communist mob going door to door will be met with a hail of bullets
In the spirit of collegiality, we won’t respond in kind to the letter signers. Their anxieties aren’t our responsibility in any case. The signers report to the News editors or other parts of the business, and the News and Opinion departments operate with separate staffs and editors. Both report to Publisher Almar Latour. This separation allows us to pursue stories and inform readers with independent judgment.
It was probably inevitable that the wave of progressive cancel culture would arrive at the Journal, as it has at nearly every other cultural, business, academic and journalistic institution. But we are not the New York Times. Most Journal reporters attempt to cover the news fairly and down the middle, and our opinion pages offer an alternative to the uniform progressive views that dominate nearly all of today’s media.
The group of reporters, editors and other staff at WSJ and its parent company Dow Jones sent the extraordinary letter to publisher Almar Latour on Tuesday
The letter calls for a clearer divide between the paper's news and opinion divisions and raises alarm about the accuracy of the latter division
'Opinion's lack of fact-checking and transparency, and its apparent disregard for evidence, undermine our readers' trust and our ability to gain credibility,' it says
The employees cited several examples of what they say are offending articles, including a column Vice President Mike Pence wrote last month
In his piece Pence said panic over a second wave of coronavirus was 'overblown' and that the Trump administration's pandemic response has been a success
The letter accuses opinion editors of failing to fact-check the article that was later found to contain several inaccurate figures
So the article makes no mention of communists, Marxist or socialists
but because they criticized Mike Pence and Heather Mac Donald they are Marxists?
Oh, no...... not the WSJ, too. I want to cry. Diversity of thought is the single most crucial diversity of all to have a free society and we are on the verge of outlawing it.
Diversity of thought has never been on the verge of being outlawed. The journal staff simply called for better journalistic integrity. People continue to be free in embracing their opinions, including opinions based entirely on fantasy and those that are utterly removed from reality. Simply look at the nutty coronavirus conspiracy theorists or QAnon.

Exactly right.
No ideas and freedom of thought/speech should be censored, or to allow a bully cancel culture to intimidate actual news organizations.
This effort to have diversity based on those things that are different (race, gender, etc.) should not be the focus, rather diversity of thought, regardless of the aforementioned, is what makes out country great.
When it gets to the point of respected speakers and even comedians not being able to go to college campuses unless they pass a certain litmus test, is downright absurd and frightening for our countries future.
