That reminds of this "performative impartiality" quote by NYT chief White House correspondent Peter Baker:
As reporters, our job is to observe, not participate, and so to that end, I don't belong to any political party, I don't belong to any non-journalism organization, I don't support any candidate, I don't give money to interest groups and I don't vote.
I try hard not to take strong positions on public issues even in private, much to the frustration of friends and family. For me, it's easier to stay out of the fray if I never make up my mind, even in the privacy of the kitchen or the voting booth, that one candidate is better than another, that one side is right and the other wrong.
His wife is also a reporter and she often reports on politics. If it's true that they don't discuss politics in the "privacy of the kitchen" - they are some kind of performative freaks. And if they do - he's just a liar.
What I love about the WH press core is that most of them would surely proclaim that it's the principle of the thing that they take dictation and make no value judgments. And that's pretty funny because if the phrase is used accurately - it refers to a situation where the speaker loses something (very) important (like their job) by having principles.
But when the WH reporters say "I can't take a stand" - they can continue to be access journalists to continue their virtuous cycle of making progress in their job, getting on tv, selling their books, making progress in their job, etc...
I like the Pegagogy of the Oppressed and the writings of the Socialist Filmmaker colelctives in Berlin who basically say - what others did say, too - that as journalist and film maker you are a soldier in the war, the war for socialism of the working class. This means you have to be partial partial to the working class and the structures of society, else you are only a negative propagandist furthering the talking points of the capitalists, who print their own news e.g. Springer.

Wow, an honest-to-god, real-life NPC wojak
