I have met, been interviewed and grossly misquoted by (how that can happen when they’re using a f***ing recorder should be a mystery ... but read on) so called “journalists”. They are not very bright and are by nature extremely lazy. And knowing in their heart of hearts that they’re intellectually inferior to most everyone they’ll ever meet they resort to character assassination as a sort of reflexive response. If most of them ended up in shallow graves and their bones knawed on by coyotes the world would be a better place.
Yep. That’s why they take the path of arrogance and shoving people down when they can. They figure that if they act like they’re one of the cool kids that people like, get the girls, and get the promotion, then maybe it’ll magically happen in real life.
There are exceptions, but I think that explains a lot about pack journalism, the echo chamber, and the tendency of journalists to pick a side and seek validation as a dependable spokesman for the chosen cause. Independent thinking and analysis is rare.
Felt inferiority probably plays a role in several other fields as well.
‘If most of them ended up in shallow graves and their bones knawed on by coyotes the world would be a better place.’
That aint very green of you. Based on their diet if would render the coyotes an endangered species.
