@mattgrayyes News media learned a long time ago that anger and fear are exceptionally profitable emotions.
I suppose that’s got a lot to do with how we’ve ended up where we are. Shit, NYT and co probably stand to make a pretty penny publishing “principled opposition” pieces again.
Now’s a good time to be angry and afraid, of course, but I’ll be damned if I’m going to give any attention at all to ghouls who profit from those emotions.
