Rubio stages font coup: Times New Roman ousts Calibri
Domain: www.reuters.com Shared: | Tags: news politicsU.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Tuesday ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor Antony Blinken's decision to adopt Calibri a "wasteful" diversity move, according to an internal department cable seen by Reuters.
The department under Blinken in early January 2023 had switched to Calibri, a modern sans-serif font, saying this was a more accessible font for people with disabilities because it did not have the decorative angular features.
Surely it's more wasteful to undo two years worth of work, no?
