If I'm being precise, I should have said disinformation.
Misinformation is just false information.
Disinfo is false information created and spread for specific ends, e.g. blocking regulation.
Kernan has spread disinformation which has mostly originated with the fossil fuel industry.

Kernen has spent years spreading misinformation about climate science and attacking the integrity of scientists.
I’m sure he’ll learn zero lessons about that now that government economists are getting the same treatment.
KERNEN: It's a big leap to go to 'rigged' with the jobs reports. And it undermines confidence in the system.
TRUMP: Give me a break

In my first TNR piece, I explained why so many key institutions, including my former employer, The Washington Post, aren't as anti-Trump now as they were from 2017-2020. It's a story of self-interest, institutional change and frustration with movements on the left. newrepublic.com/article/1987...
Why So Many Key Institutions Have Folded Rather Than Challenge Trump
Yes, they’re under pressure. But maybe a lot of these leaders kinda like what Trump’s doing. Just remember: They were defeated once before.
