It states the three staff members were removed from their positions and remain on leave at this time.

Excellent analysis! I was struck by the way Acemoglu contrasted his notion of a partisan press to one that is only out to "amuse." That word stuck out in my mind. Does Acemoglu really believe the only options are partisanship and amusement? It is as if the very idea of truth telling is foreign to him.
