Blacklist and threats to all companies

Forbes is threatening any company who hires Trump's press secretaries with permanemt persecution, unrelated to their editorial content.

"Let it be known to the business world: Hire any of Trump’s fellow fabulists above, and Forbes will assume that everything your company or firm talks about is a lie. We’re going to scrutinize, double-check, investigate with the same skepticism we’d approach a Trump tweet. Want to ensure the world’s biggest business media brand approaches you as a potential funnel of disinformation? Then hire away." TuffStuffMcG (talk) 01:57, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

Is forbes taking a conservative slant?

After reading some of the sections above this, I'm not so sure, but this video by Forbes on YouTube [(Biden Attacked Over Taliban Takeover Of Afghanistan In New GOP Ads) [1]] just shows some of the attack ads against Biden with no commentary. That doesn't feel typical for a news agency. Usually they play the ad and make commentary about it. This was just a playback of the ads and some of Biden's statements with no commentary by any news personnel. I've noticed other things in the past about Forbes, but I didn't pay attention too much. This just feels weird. I wouldn't say it counts as sufficient proof on its own, but it raises a few questions for me at least.Fearless lede'r (talk) 08:25, 19 August 2021 (UTC) This title is another example of something I'd normally ignore, but now I'm not so sure: ['Why Did You Abandon The Bagram Airfield?': Austin Pressed On US Moves Before Afghanistan Collapse] [2]Fearless lede'r (talk) 15:10, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
