Through the lens of a recent PBS Frontline Documentary, The Discord Leaks, which examines how 21 years told Air Force Guardsman Jack Teixeira leaked national security secrets, I argue that the Washington Post and PBS are gaslighting the American people about the impact of those leaks on national security.

I also argue that the Washington Post's tagline "Democracy Dies in Darkness" is just gaslighting. Indeed, the opposite is true.
