I'm shocked people still read: Forbes, fortune and business insider.

What ever legitimacy they once held in the business world is long gone. All three of them went click bait long before COVID (BI was always a click bait outfit) and I find their content to be on par with UK gossip rags or the National Enquirer.

Suggestion, start filtering out these three sites from your news gathering and stop sharing articles on social media from them. It'll make the world a better place!

I had to chuckle after I saw that Forbes now reports on League of Legends patch notes. Wtf bruh.

Is this real? Thats awsome, just because league needs more recognition. And more people addicted :D

Once Forbes realized they could influence a stock price, it was over for any journalistic integrity they had. I don't know how anyone can take them seriously, when literally all they write can be condensed down to "Ultra-capitalism"

Yeah, but The Economist has reported the same and it is considered to be a decent source of journalism.

I find it funny that Lenin, love him or hate him, had the definitive take on The Economist 100 years ago.
