Comparing a drunk FBI Director frivolous lawsuit to military group chat leak is all sorts of crazy. No one's subscription numbers are going up for reporting about should-be-in-AA-meetings-and-not-running-FBI DEI hire (or even worse the eventual drop/dismissal of this case).

The potential going-up may not be for the reporting of particular stories, but perhaps from the Streisand effect of bringing attention to organizations that are not cow-towing to the Administration: people may want to support those types of organizations.

You misspelled DUI hire.

He, just like about every single person working in this Administration, is a textbook definition of DEI hire (someone holding a job many other people are more qualified for :) ).

He doesn't fit that definition of a DEI hire, it's just that the qualifications for the job aren't the traditional ones like knowledge of the law. He is extremely qualified in the area of loyalty and deference to Trump, the most important qualification in this administration.

exactly, that is DEI hard at work. he ran a campaign and his supporters were all like "DEI bad" while Zuck was getting rainbow flags tattooed on his forehead and then we ended up with the DEI-iest of DEI Presidents ever. and it is not just kash, it is all of them, through and through. too funny
