It's funny how media, especially bottom tier media over-reacts to things. I don't think there are any "conspiracies" but it's almost like these outlets non-news "cultural" publications (Ars Technica is another example), didn't get the memo that they're not part of a conspiracy and feel like they need to act as propaganda mouthpieces for some imagined master.
- g42gregory 4y agoI don't know if you would consider them a bottom tier media, but here is a headline from Washington Post: "On SNL, Woody Harrelson pushes popular covid-19 conspiracy theory" Huffington Post: "Woody Harrelson Rambles About Weed, Anti-Vaccine Conspiracy In 'SNL' Monologue" Forbes: "Woody Harrelson Spouts Covid Vaccine Conspiracy In ‘SNL’ Monologue" This list goes on...
- version_five 4y agoInteresting. I'd but Forbes and Huffington Post in the same bucket as Rolling Stone, they are just looking for clicks. Washington Post I'm surprised they would even cover a SNL monologue. That's the type of non-story you regularly see on Fox News. But I guess it refutes my claim that Rolling Stone is uniquely taking the journalistic low road.
