Mike Cernovich, a pickup artist (remember that?) who realize it was a lot easier to make money off beta cuck alt-righters than any other way.

But we should trust someone who self admitted that being a troll is the only way to use social media.

"However, one lesson of boycotts is that the pain of deprivation must be shared to be sustainable. Otherwise, those least resilient bear the brunt of these actions; and in the aftermath, they struggle to access the victory. And boycotts are complicated affairs that require a long-term commitment to action. I have no doubt that voters of color, particularly Black voters, are willing to endure the hardships of boycotts. But I don’t think that’s necessary — yet."

Seems real pro-boycott to me.

The right wing is full of half-wits.

I bet the person responsible resigned though, just like at NYP. Right?

It is a point worth noting that the persons responsible at the NYP have not been identified. And given the NYP standard operating procedures, they won't be because they were doing their jobs as the NYP would want them to.

It is a point worth considering that I don't recall you being so interested in dishonest journalism when it suited your Trump damaged ideological ends.

But hey, I'm excited to see your return to critically consuming media, and look forward to your criticism of the dishonest leftward bias of nearly every other news source. This could be an important step on your road to recovery from the trauma done to you by that mean man.

You left out the first part of course.

But the story here, is the stealth edits and revision of history to make her look better retrospectively

the very poorly chosen one era was such a target rich environment that honest journalists had plenty to work with...and people who are honest with themselves don't dwell on those instances when the media mishandled the story when there were hundreds of real actual stories that should have offended their consciences

like this little gem of a clip

a sitting president advocating police brutality...no reporter had to make up this story...it was there (like hundreds of similarly stories) for anyone who cared to keep their eyes open and unaverted...if pointing out these truths makes me a partisan hack i will wear the label proudly
