    Just a general notice. This thread is meant for posting cringe media journalism, as in general dishonest journalism, yellow journalism, shitty takes by journalists and everything else that we can archive and save here to illustrate just how shitty our mainstream and internet journalists are nowadays.

    This isn't a general news thread or anything like that. Feel free to take the time to look for the appropriate threads if they already exist and if not and you feel it's worthy or merits a discussion, open a thread for it! Thanks!

    This thread is meant to be a landmark to journalistic idiocy.

    As stated before including in Staff Posts, this Thread is Meant for Discussion of Cringe Journalists, Journalism and News Media in General. It's not a discussion on general news or public figures like politicians or celebrities and the like.

    As stated before...

    I've pruned other discussions off of this thread (and other megathreads) before. People shouldn't feel intimidated in opening new threads if they think the topic is worthy of discussion on its own merits. This thread is more for citing examples of terrible journalism in general as opposed to a news aggregation style thread (which people were treating it as for a while). The CPAC Runic Stage conspiracy was well worth its own thread I feel.

    Posts have been moved to the following threads if you want to follow those discussions.

    - For the largest pruning in regard to the Alex Jones Lawsuit

    - For the Kanye West talk

    - For the Discussion on International Pronoun Day (Trivia: This thread was originally created by pruning a discussion months ago about the plethora of genders apparently in existence now)

    - For the PayPal Threat to Fine Users for Disinformation Before Retraction

    - For the discussion about January 6th

    - For the off topic posts about Election Fraud posted recently.

    And probably some others...

    Keep discussions focused on the threads purpose please. Conversations drift and that is always taken in account. But if you want to discuss something, please feel free to make a new thread to discuss the topic if there isn't a thread readily available to discuss it. It's typically better for the forum to have more dispersed discussion then a few giant megathreads (which are a nice resource ofc in many cases).
