A NY Times editorial: the fucking Pentagon, fighting to ensure democritude, blocked the military’s independent paper from covering troops’ positive reactions to the election.
In a stroke of self-satire, Pentagon officials tried to block Stars and Stripes — the military’s respected independent newspaper — from covering the troops’ plain and honest reactions to the election night news about their new commander in chief. The Department of Defense once again made news by smothering news.
The good news is that Stars and Stripes found commanders in the Middle East and Europe that ignored the foolish directive, as if it were a premise for a “M*A*S*H” episode. Its reporters did their jobs until forced to stop.

Why does the Pentagon hate our freedoms?
