i thought labour's brexit support post-vote was basically "it's better to just do it then dwell in this weird half-brexit where nothing can get done"

he voted to leave in the actual vote. labour have no official position on what kind of brexit other than they voted extremely for it once it went ot a parliament vote which turned out to be a very good move for the general eelection

Adidas paid a bunch of college coaches money that the coaches then paid money to families to get kids to play for certain schools under the promise that those kids would then become Adidas-only players in the NBA.

Multiple schools, at least seven. Four charges brought against coaches as Auburn, Okie State, Zona, and USC

He's getting jumped on a bunch in the comments here but I seriously agree hard with what he's trying to get at. Impartiality is #fakenews and a journalist's views are absolutely going to influence not just what questions they ask, but how they interpret the answers they receive. Especially today when facts don't matter and all we have is context to try to figure out what is actually happening. I forget which philosopher was huge on "There is no way to separate the philosophy from the philosopher" but *that*... big time.

Also, supersize that for me.

"Some would say" is something journalists say because they're too lazy to name names or they're trying to say something themselves while lying that they're just passing it on. It's the second-worst thing in journalism behind the headline with the question mark.
