Unrelated to the incident, but I’m getting really fucking tired of articles using some unknown set of people posting online as justification for the conclusions of their articles. I don’t give half a shit what someone posted on the departments facebook page. I give a shit about the incident at hand. Don’t tell me how other people reacted online and expect me to do the same. Tell me what happened and let me come to my own conclusion.
Fuck yes. I mean, obviously we all agree the most egregious thing is the pissant fuckin pig shooting a goddamn dog after only attempting to catch it for three fuckin minutes.
But Huffington Post, this terrible outlet the independent, they’re not real journalistic outlets. They’re literally made by and for social media. Their only real value is in sharing outlandish headlines. That’s the entire model they were built around. And when those of us that actually read the articles do so, we realize there’s almost nothing of value to be found in the body. But these places survive and even thrive by sites like this one, with large segments of the user BASE jumping right in to comment without reading it anyway. It’s clickbait with the facade of an article.
