Rolling Stone Busted for Trashing a Conservative Movie Its Reviewer Didn't Watch

That’s embarrassing! Rolling Stone, already famous for its politically motivated lying, has just been caught faking it again, this time for trashing a conservative movie its reviewer didn’t even watch.

The movie in question is What Is a Woman, a deep dive by conservative commentator Matt Walsh into the definition of “woman” in the age of transgender mania. I haven’t gotten a chance to watch it yet, but here’s the trailer:

The Daily Wire, Walsh’s employer and the film’s producer, sent free streams of the documentary to various media outlets to help promote it in an effort to garner reviews and buzz. Rolling Stone was one of those outlets, and it published a hit piece on Friday. The “review,” titled “Why Are Social Media Companies Taking Ad Money From a Right-Wing Transphobic Doc?” was an attempt to intimidate social media platforms into refusing to run ads for the documentary. Here is the first paragraph:

The author of the piece is Brooklyn-based Moises Mendez II,,, Mendez didn’t watch a single second of What Is a Woman?

Filmmaker Walsh exposed the phony freelancer on Twitter. Walsh explained that The Daily Wire could track each individual screener (a link to watch the movie for free) it sent out, and he attached screenshots proving that Mendez was critiquing something he had never seen.

I am of the firm belief that this is an EXCELLENT place to use INFAMOUS appropriately!

Exactly. Same thing goes for ‘xeno’”, or “islamo-” or whatever.
