    Maybe this is more an issue with my regional news… but my issue is less about the idiots - it’s when the news does a story where they interview some well-meaning but not media trained person (like a progressive activist at a protest), but then for “balance”, they bring in the fucking CEO of Orphan Crushing Inc. to eloquently say why having morals is evil and why the oppressors are actually the victims here. And then give him 90% of the screen time because he’s the “expert”

      Anybody else remember when fox news interviewed one of the moderators for /r/antiwork which went about as well as you would expect?
