It is fascism.
At a journalism event I asked about using the word so journalism can cover and explain it. I was told that we can't call fascists fascists because it would put off the fascists.
This is fascism. Those who refuse to identify it are not doing journalism.

@jeffjarvis I agree. When the administration does not conform to my specific worldview, I expect everyone else to drop any pretense of professionalism or respect for the reader and scream my opinion from the mountaintops until I get what I want. You Get Glee likes this. -

Journalism "explains fascism". Good grief!
