What kind of person types, “Why is (location) so (adjective)?” into Google?

“Why is the South so hot?” DUH, THE SUN, you idiot. Now put down your stupid beeber and WATCH THE ROAD.

The only adjective that baffles me is Minnesota’s “great”. I live here. Not once have I ever wondered “why is Minnesota so great?”

I’m an Hispanic born and raised in California, but happily living in Arizona for the last 20 years. Let me tell you, I encountered 100% more racism in California than I ever have in Arizona. No comparison.

Is this “story” News or Chat? In addition to Fake News we need to pin the LSM for “Chat, Not News”.

I was suggesting that the same FR standards be applied beyond FR to point out that much of LSM “news” stories/content should be deemed Chat. A category in addition to harassing the LSM about their extensive use of Fake News.
