Not saying that everything reported by Politico is incorrect, but bear in mind that this is a corrupt company which was being secretly paid by the Biden administration. Now that the money spigot has been turned off, it can’t pay it’s employees.
Politico Subsidized by USAID to Attack SHU
- Thread starter Blueswayedshus

Are you saying that what is being reported by Politico regarding SHU is untrue because of a political agenda to target a small university in South Orange, NJ?
Do you have information to refute what is being reported? If so, please share. I haven’t seen anything from SHU PR. However, I haven’t been looking.

Not that I’m going along with the premise of the post, but one thing about the whole story is how Politico is the one to have “broken” it. Politico is pretty much near the bottom of the list for breaking news stories when it comes to New Jersey. It makes me wonder if it was shopped around to many other outlets who passed. It’s not like the Catholic Church/Seton Hall are institutions they are out to protect.
I’m still working on the premise that there are three sides to this story, but even so, the school’s handling from a crisis communications standpoint has been horrible, which should surprise no one.

I don't think they're out there to protect or attack anyone; Seton Hall, and to a much larger and widely visible extent, the Church, shoot themselves in the foot often enough that there wouldn't be a need to fish for false narratives.
I wouldn't call Politico titans of journalism, but with the collapse of local media like the old Star-Ledger (and I know NJ.com is still, technically, a thing), there is a huge vacuum and Politico does have a New Jersey bureau (which might be a generous term for what it actually is), backed by a large national network. They also "showed their work," so to speak, so at least at first blush, they certainly seem like the more credible end of this story so far. Nothing Seton Hall has done so far remotely mitigates that. And the Church ... I mean, they forfeited their credibility on covering up sex crimes decades ago now.
EDIT: It should also be noted that nothing coming from Elon Musk or Karolyn Leavitt should ever be regarded as anything resembling the truth. Both have well-established patters of being wholly unacquainted with it. I add this after reading the story in the equally non-credible Daily Mail.
Does anyone care this isn't true? I assume not, but figured I'd ask anyway.
Social media, no newspapers, - oh boy. If I write a big lie many will click and many even believe it.
Problem is, who in the Archdiocese isn’t closely associated with him? Not a good situation.
