@rolle I think questions by journalists like that frame nicely into the idea put forward by Musa al-Gharbi in "We Have Never Been Woke" (although I don't buy his whole premise). I.e. lots of "woke" journalistic posturing is about language, not about what is the actual outcome or problem at hand. Depending on the context it can be sickening.
