So what I’m wondering is: does “bad information” come out to equal “bad news”? Because if it does (IMO, very possibly wrong) , it sounds like Gen. Kelly is merely enabling, rather than counteracting one of The Orange Idiot’s many failings in office: i.e. only wanting to hear “good news”, only wanting to hear personal praise, and ignoring/dismissing anything that doesn’t fit either of those categories.

And yeah: the Maginot Line worked just fine: til the Germans decided to go around, rather than through it….

i understood the story to be not so much “news control” as paperwork, documents, proposals, strategies, that “cross the president’s desk” - you know, work
