    And he’s quite right to point out that the media loves obsessing over the dumb shit (like Palmer’s penis and McDonald’s) and spends far less time running down real shit.

        Lul you’re posting this on Lemmy…

        We’re just everyday people talking in a room, audience maybe 1000. Broadcast news, is broadcast literally everywhere. The onus is definitely on them to shift the narrative up
