That is what they tell themselves. Did they sell the newspaper talking about the story? Did they run ads in the newspaper? No, their motive was profit and playing off people’s voyeurism.
- thr0wawayf00 5y agoHaving spent 3 years working on the tech side for a large newspaper, I can assure you that this is a purely sensationalized mindset that really has no basis in reality. It's like wondering aloud if all hackers wear black hoods and Guy Fawkes masks and still live in their parents' basement, it's silly. Seriously, please spend some time actually researching and trying to understand the nuances of that industry before throwing around accusations that they play off people's voyeurism. I'm not saying that it's perfect, but it amazes how many otherwise-intelligent people make completely ignorant, emotionally-driven comments like this.
