"Major media outlets’ uniform criticism of Cannon’s ruling doesn’t change the fact that there’s still a prevailing cloud of “decorum” preventing those same outlets from stating the obvious: that Cannon is in no small part doing what she was hired to do by a broader movement of ideologues.

Who said I was?
Why worry about ruling that out then?
