When Elizabeth Warren was "warned" by Larry Summers.
Text; “In her book released [2014], Sen. Elizabeth Warren recounted a dinner she had with President Obama’s chief economic adviser, Larry Summers, in April 2009, when Warren was the outspoken chairman of a congressionally appointed panel probing the government's response to the financial crisis. "Larry leaned back in his chair and offered me some advice. ... He teed it up this way: I had a choice. I could be an insider or I could be an outsider. Outsiders can say whatever they want. But people on the inside don’t listen to them. Insiders, however, get lots of access and a chance to push their ideas. People — powerful people — listen to what they have to say. But insiders also understand one unbreakable rule. They don’t criticize other insiders. I had been warned."

Text from NOLA com article: Guidry, meanwhile, has supported the recent changes implemented at the agency, including the expansion of its police budget. The agency maintains a 50-officer police force that is primarily tasked with protecting levees, pumps, and flood walls, and also provides general policing services to neighborhoods along the shores of Lake Pontchartrain. In the interview, he said residents are going to be glad for the increased funding and police training when the city needs to respond to incidents like mass shootings, which he blamed on "crazy liberals," using an expletive. "They're gonna save lives and everybody's gonna be happy," he said. "But until then, they're going to whine about it." The agency plans to spend $3.7 million more on its police this year, raising the total budget from $8 million to nearly $12 million.

How the US press reported on Jane Goodall back in 1962.
"British Coed".
Not "British scientist" or "British researcher."

Black & white newspaper photo of Jane Goodall as young woman sitting on a chair with a small chimpanzee perched behind her - from low res photo unclear if it is a juvenile real chimpanzee or a toy. Text: "MORE TIME FOR APES THAN MEN - Willowy blonde Jane Morris-Goodall relaxes in her London, England apartment with her toy chimpanzee mascot "Soko". April 16. The 27-year-old Cambridge undergraduate, alone and unarmed, spent more than 1,000 hours chimp-watching in Tanganyka's Gombe River game reserve during the 15 months she lived in Africa. "I like apes", Jane said. "In some respects I like them better than men." (AP Wirephoto via radio from London)". Newspaper clipping. Text: ANXIOUS TO GO BACK TO JUNGLES. LONDON (UPI) - A 27 year old British coed, who spent 15 months alone in the African jungles, today was reported anxious to go back because she found apes more interesting than men. “It was wonderful, I can’t get back to the jungle quick enough,” the Daily Sketch quoted Jane Morris-Goodall, “I prefer it to civilization." The newspaper further quoted Miss Morris-Goodall, a Cambridge University undergraduate as saying: ‘‘I like apes in some respects better than men".
