It’s come to this …

… Column: Northwestern University, the cancel culture and ‘Whatsoever things are true’ - Chicago Tribune.

Journalism was once the province of the iconoclasts, but no longer. Now establishment journalism, in the main, serves the establishment. The cancel culture doesn’t shape journalists as much as it shapes propagandists, but ultimately this is not the fault of the students.
It’s our fault. They’re our kids. We let it happen.

Gee, when I was editor of my college newspaper I loved it when people took offense. It proved I had got their attention.
