Provocateur just means you provoke a reaction, and he was pretty famous for doing that. Honestly this isn’t a bad headline for WaPo. It could have been a lot darker, this is as about close as they could come to a eulogy.
I mean if they can call the terrorist a scholar they can do better for Rush.
There’s a clear negative connotation here. I agree with OP.
It’s not terrible but it’s there. The comparison is striking.
They are actually giving him decent props... LOL learn words muh fren.
You think “provocateur” is a compliment?
