Writer:“Hey Boss, I finished today’s news story.”
Boss: “Oh, this Reddit, is it a good source we should use in the future?”
Writer: “Oh, yeAahhH…there’s loads of things on here…WwoAh, look sOmeone’s argument with their ex, and they’re not getting the support they wanted in the comments section. Oh, tHerE’s someone’s cat knocking over a vase. NoOo other news station has any of this stuff! Someone’s got their week allll lined up for them… I’ll be soOon on my way to the top of I keep this up”
Maybe it’s an excellent allegory for current events:
Man helps child through traumatic event, buys her a milkshake to thank her. Two other petulant children also want milkshakes and say things like “why don’t you say thanks to us” and “I want half of your milkshake”.
Fox News, hiding the real cutting news like geniuses.
No, it was just an article, primarily written by the aforementioned Reddit poster and the commenter. There was little input by the ‘journalist’. Now, I can’t say the same about the OP of the Reddit post. Maybe that had a hidden meaning but I doubt it. But it doesn’t surprise me coming from Fox, it is just funny they have nothing better to write about.(they do this often) On social media every day there is a story with similar merit as this one, they could just do this every day. My point. And still be watched/read. But it is for this reason, I keep following their page: to find humor in the comments.
You need to read between the lines, man. They’re not going to come out and just say it, man. The man is watching, man.
