No, or maybe they get a token quote of objection. Modern media aren’t there to inform. Truth hardly matters. They are there to collect your clicks and eyeballs. For that Loeb is catnip. I blame the media the most, as in this satirical rant.

Avi Loeb's calculations about 3I/ATLAS are 100% wrong because he has never understood that dust in the tail(s) responds to solar radiation pressure. Solar wind shapes the ion tail. But the radiation pressure is about 1000 times larger than the solar wind ram pressure, for particles that feel it.

Basically, the United States ran up until 2024 based on nothing more than the presumption that the administration would not do relentless crimes, and would stop if asked.
