Surprised overall? Of course not. Surprised they'd choose this overt demonstration thereof? Absolutely.

They are literally playing to their audience though. This is what any tribune does. It's in the name tribune.

You do realize not all Tribunes worldwide are part of Tribune, right? You're doubling down here, and that makes me wonder.

One of the definitions of Tribune: an official in ancient Rome chosen by the plebeians to protect their interests.

It's literally in the name. It has nothing to do with what Tribune Publishing is. It's a definition of the English language.
