The New York Post is a tabloid rag. Are there any legitimate sources for this quote?
- qclibre22 4y agoThe tabloid rag cites Reuters as a source : https://www.reuters.com/technology/exclusive-meta-girds-fierce-headwinds-slower-growth-second-half-memo-2022-06-30/ https://www.reuters.com/technology/exclusive-meta-girds-fier...

- eddieroger 4y agoSo you asked for a better source, got one, then don't like the source? Would you prefer having heard it first-hand from Zuckerberg himself?
- colesantiago 4y agoIt's not a valid source if the New York Post cites it as one /s
- ss108 4y agoIt is, but they don't tend to outright fabricate quotes (they aren't Breitbart or something). Their source for the quote seems to be this Reuters article: https://www.reuters.com/technology/exclusive-meta-girds-fierce-headwinds-slower-growth-second-half-memo-2022-06-30/ https://www.reuters.com/technology/exclusive-meta-girds-fier...
- notlukesky 4y agoThe tabloid rag that publishes stories that the NY Times (and Washington Post) acknowledges as truth more than a year later. What does that make the NY Times and Washington Post? https://nypost.com/2022/04/01/new-york-times-finally-admit-hunters-laptop-is-real-but-only-to-protect-joe-biden/amp/ https://nypost.com/2022/04/01/new-york-times-finally-admit-h...
- refurb 4y agoThat’s fair. A touch indelicate, but fair.
- ajcp 4y agoAccording to the "tabloid rag" themselves. That's really not the best way to back up your point. The links contained in that article referencing an "admission" just go to another NYPost article referencing the same "admission". Those links then go to other NYPost articles doing the same... I finally got to a link that took me to a NYTimes article[0] that did reference the laptop and e-mails. Those references also contained a link to a NYTimes article[1] from more than a year ago referencing the existence of, and analyzing what was known about, the laptop and emails in question. What a conspiracy. What a miscarriage of journalistic integrity! 0. https://archive.ph/Z2yeW https://archive.ph/Z2yeW 1. https://archive.ph/NsVQ9 https://archive.ph/NsVQ9

- seti0Cha 4y agoIf you want to make an argument that the contents of that email server or Joe Biden's laptop were of no interest, actually do it. I'm open to persuasion. Mocking, on the other hand, I find unconvincing.
- seti0Cha 4y agoThe facts aren't really in dispute. The NY Post got kicked off of twitter for running stories that were deemed misinformation and which subsequently proved to be true. This didn't happen to the NY Times because they dropped the story like a hot potato. There was no actual evidence that it was misinformation, that was just a presumption by various 'experts' not directly involved. The Post is in fact mostly a tabloid but even tabloids can print the truth and this incident was a particularly egregious example of mainstream media not doing their job. They deserve to be called out for it.
