"The MEDIA" is doomed

Consider this charming little item:

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/25/opin ... dcast.html

He is not "mainstream anything". He is just the new Howard Stern. Perhaps not as pathetically juvenile as Stern and a little more "intellectual", but equally credulous and capable of causing harm, by misinforming or manipulating stupid people. Rogan routinely gives a soapbox to cranks who probably should not have a soapbox.

Joe Rogan has smoked so much hemp that he agrees with any guest. Bari Weiss is a hack, has only been writing for the op-ed page NYT since 2017. She was a right-Zionist "activist" in college, which was during the George W. Bush years. The Intercept did a piece on Weiss the year she was hired.

The media is not doomed, it's just that the hacks have moved to the top, and the New York Times has dragged itself into the toilet.
Still "Globally Banned" on Wikipedia for the high crime of journalism.

Impossible to disagree. Especially given the coverage of protests this week. Can't tell who's crazier anymore and a press pass doesn't seem to help. Nor does a badge.

And as usual, Wikipedia says nothing bad about Weiss. Because OMG she's a pro-Israel Jew and bisexual! HERO!!! Major editor thereof: Snooganssnoogans. Anyone remember Sagecandor a/k/a/Cirt? I would not be surprised if Cirt is operating thousands of sock accounts.
