So thats a strong editorializing of a headline. Maybe we shouldn't do that?

The snark is the point
I think the original title is more alarming. "Drinking buddies" could mean friends that hang out while tossing a few cold ones back. Meanwhile:
"Judge who approved raid on Kansas newspaper has history of DUI arrests "
The Judge that approved the warrant had two DUIs, the second DUI was while she was under diversion for the first. She also refuses to cooperate with the other requirements for the diversion but didn't get in trouble!
Also, about the Judge:
She was not supposed to be driving because her driver’s license was suspended in the Coffey County case, court records show. She reportedly drove off-road and crashed into a school building next to Council Grove’s football field while driving then-8th District Magistrate Judge Thomas Ball’s vehicle
And
The case does not exist in the state’s court records system, and no follow-up articles appear in any publicly available newspaper archives.
Just dripping with impunity and entitlement in her behavior.
You could take it up with the mod but I have a sneaking suspicion they're fine with it.
