NY Times And Washington Post Describe Yesterday‘s Net Neutrality Vote In Diametrically Opposite Ways

the NYT‘s version was:

„The Federal Communications Commission voted 3-2 on Thursday to move forward with a set of proposed rules aimed at guaranteeing an open Internet prohibiting high-speed Internet service providers from blocking or discriminating against legal content flowing through their pipes.“

Meanwhile, the Washington Post‘s version was:

„The Federal Communications Commission on Thursday voted in favor of advancing a proposal that could dramatically reshape the way consumers experience the Internet, opening the possibility of Internet service providers charging Web sites for higher-quality delivery of their content to American consumers.“
