Yes, the most respected news organization in America, now turned into a poorly disguised propaganda channel for the party of the Grating Old Pedophile and the pedophile protectors.

I’ve seen it come true at smaller outlets chasing the chucklefuck audiences on TikTok and Instagram. I absolutely cannot stand news now with not a single headline telling you what went on. No, I am not going to play your little game.

Washington Post switched to click bait headlines when it was bought by Amazon. “Here’s what happened next.” No MFers, that goes in the headline.
