While the core event is real (Kessler’s departure), the framing is misleading. Much of Nolte’s article consists of hyperbolic or unsubstantiated claims. There is no documented evidence that Kessler was engaged in serial dishonesty or that his exit reflects moral or professional disgrace, nor was there partisan pressure for his removal. That framing misleads the reader, distorts the nature of his work, and elevates opinions as though they were verified facts.
