Comments like these boggle my mind. This is news. This is reporting. Literally taking what is done and sharing it with the masses: X did Y. That's it.

Did you know this happened before this article? No. Does your caring change the fact that it's news? No.

"What's the point of the article?" To inform. That this needs to be questioned is upsetting.

Oh, but it is so much more than “X did Y”. The choice of which facts to report, when, and how, has huge impact on what people come to believe.

There are a thousand ways to deceive while uttering nothing but true statements. The question to ask is not “is the headline literally true?”, but “what does the headline cause people to believe?”

It is news to me yes and yet, by any definition of news I understand, a measure taken in 2007 is continuing is not. To further make my point, the original commenter felt the need, correctly I think to clarify that the article is not discussing a new policy! "What's the point of the article?" is a short way of asking both what the author wishes to communicate, why and most importantly what the intention is. I had hoped my asking the question in the first place would be a clue that I dont buy that it is just "to inform"

The PSLF has been very badly administered to date. The Biden administration is finally applying it the way it was intended.
