Finally, cancel culture is over:
Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon on Friday fired the publisher and editor of the independent military news outlet Stars and Stripes for “insubordination.”
Long-time publisher Max Lederer and Editor-in-Chief Erik Slavin were given “separation notices” that allow five days to appeal the decision, CBS News reports. Reporter Lara Korte announced on social media that she had also been fired.
Korte and Slavin traced the decision back to interviews they did that aired on CBS Sunday Morning in July.
“According to the notice, I am being fired for stating in a CBS interview that censorship of news for service members would constitute a red line. The Pentagon’s public affairs office has charged me with insubordination,” Slavin told CBS.
“I stand by the principle that Stars and Stripes must remain editorially independent, as required by law and by the department’s own policies.”
As someone on Bluesky observed, it is inconceivable that anyone responsible for creating the deplorable conditions on the USS Lincoln will be fired, because the Trump/Hegseth position is that there was nothing wrong and these entitled brats need to stop whining. Revealing embarrassing facts, on the other hand, is the most fireable offense in Hegseth’s Department of Defense that a white person can commit.
