A week old, but I hadn't mentioned it here yet.
Politico, a supposedly neutral site covering politics, actually did something ballsy and invited Ben Shapiro to write for their "Playbook" section for a single day as a guest. They're currently inviting a series of well-known guest writers to Playbook, most of whom are on the left.
Politico staff ABSOLUTELY FREAKED OUT about Shapiro being allowed to write for Playbook, and the majority of the staff there was so upset that they had to have a company-wide ZOOM meeting to calm the snowflakes down.
To their credit, the staff at Politico wouldn't back down on the Shapiro matter, and had him as the columnist anyway. However, they had to coddle and gladhandle their staff, gently telling each of them that Politico has to give space to an evil conservative like Shapiro every so often.
Here's a writeup from the left-wing Daily Beast site about it, confirming all of this happened:

That's really today's left in a nutshell. While there are still some (such as the editors at Politico) who believe in some semblance of ideological diversity, the vast majority of those working in mainstream media -- even supposedly centrist mainstream media -- simply do not. Keep in mind that Shapiro is not a fake-news pusher or conspiracy theorist. He's just an outspoken conservative, and most of the staff at Politico felt it was a huge sin to have him as a columnist for a single day.
Wow.
