  • Sorry I also replied to that when I woke up in the middle of the night to pee, so I wasn’t fully there. Not coherent enough to pick up on any sarcasm for sure.

    But it was during the internet but more in the advice animals dumb meme era. But I mainly majored in that to get my foot in the door other places. You’d be surprised, every class in every degree was reinforcing old school ethics and hammering the 24 hour networks. It was all about how to report facts without bias. Easy to make fun of now bc journalism kneels to capital but it was nothing to mock. Except my history of mass media professor I guess.

    But I wasn’t cut out for office work either way so now I’m a truck driver lmfao


  • I’m not gonna lie, yeah I regurgitated something they taught in an undergrad mass media history class over a decade ago. It was incorrect info and I get that.

    Again, someone could have just plainly been like “yo dude that’s not right” and I would have been like “oh okay thank you” instead of everyone being like “JOURNALISM SCHOOL LMFAO fuck this guy”

    It’s also the reporting of facts and the fact is that I was told in school that is where it came from, which is what I originally said. I didn’t scour book and the internet over every claim every teacher said. My bad. But yes they still taught research? What a crazy thing to ask

    It’s also about accepting new information when you’re wrong. Which I have done. But you didn’t have to come at it the way you did? You can inform someone they are wrong without being hostile about it. How hard is it to say “hey actually that is incorrect” and then post snopes without being a dick?That’s reddit behavior.

    Edit: thought I was replying to person who corrected me
