The one downside to browsing archives is the fact that you come across things are somehow still relevant, despite their age. I don't know if the phrase "yellow journalism" can fully capture just how severely outlets like the #BrokenTimes and #washingtonpost have failed at - and in some cases outright betrayed - their solemn duties as journalists.

In the modern day, our failed press goes far beyond simple sensationalism and partisanship.

You know what boosts the far right? Headlines saying the far right is boosted.

Marine Le Pen verdict throws National Rally into chaos but could boost far right

Conviction is a huge blow to her party and harms her drive for respectability, while serving the victimisation narrative

Credulously repeating Putin’s talking points adopts his world view. He needs the war to end soon so he talks as though it will and that he is the victor. #brokenpress

@FantasticalEconomics good call, my guess is the dementia is well advanced but we have a completely #BrokenPress that will NEVER utter a word against the #DearLeader

WHAT A FARCE! Can you imagine what they would have said about #Biden had he misspoken like that?

@Allkinds what would you expect Putin’s puppet to say?

America looks foolish for having put this bozo back in the WH after what we all saw him do and say over the last decade.

A #BrokenPress, #GreedyBillionaires, #SelfRighteousEvangelicalHypocrites, #AngryRascists, and the #Ignorant formed a #DeathCult fueled by #Putin inspired #infowars and amplified by #SocialMedia #advertising and #algorithms to usher in the #endtimes for humanity.

Good job America, well done!
