      So right. I’m quite sick of these articles that sound like a teenager relaying an interaction they had in school today.

      “And so Maggie said ‘that’s stupid’ and then Tom said ‘no you’re stupid.’ It was wicked.”

      I facepalm seeing people who are usually on top of the ball with their political views sharing articles from Mediaite, The Daily Beast, and The New Republic without recognizing the prominence of inflammatory and agenda-pushing bad journalism across these platforms. It may not be every single story or headline but it’s a consistent theme, especially with the more viral articles. The same types of flaws are a major aspect of what Fox News is condemned for and lead to people picking a side of a story or picking a party just for emotion and in-grouping rather than reason.
