Btw the reason most of these news companies use quotation marks for things like “traitor”, “sexual assault” is not to show that they disagree with a particular stance.
They do it to show that they themselves aren’t calling someone a traitor, instead they are quoting someone else who calls that person a traitor. So that way they are not implicating themselves in case problems arise.

Otherwise they can have legal consequences if the things that they say about a certain person lead to that person suing them. This way they can easily say “hold on, we didn’t call you a traitor, it was those people, we were just quoting them”

Or at least that’s how it is to my knowledge. (aka covering my ass in case I’m wrong :)) )
