Do you really think that young Oprah-wannabe has anything on her mind but how fluffy & white & precious the snow is? The slightest mention of complicated economic matters are clearly making her brain short-circuit.

I used to have this NYT lifestyle reporter in my Facebook and they were constantly posting hyper-specific quote requests. “If you are a bartender who has seen more business from upscale clientele since Covid ended and think this is because affluent people have less empathy, I’d like to interview you for an upcoming article!”

It’s fucking embracing how the News already knows exactly what they want to say before they even go to people, and they just want people to repeat their line like a good little drone and then go away. And most people will for the mere chance to have their face or name in the news.
