Some real Fox News style headline work. Surprised the AP Board didn't SLAM DeSantis.

[-] tiredOfFascists@reddthat.com 36 points 10 months ago

I absolutely despise that SLAM is an acceptable word in journalism. How the fuck did that happen?

[-] CobblerScholar@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

Give it another couple years and we'll see, "murdered", "destroyed", "annihilated". Journalists need attention to make money so they use the most extreme language they can get away with. Problem is that language loses its urgency when you use it constantly and it isn't as effective at grabbing attention

[-] gamer@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago

I think emojis will be the next big thing in journalism.

[-] tiredOfFascists@reddthat.com 6 points 10 months ago

Yeah. Destroyed and annihilated are already a thing now, I think.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Fox News is not journalism...

[-] tiredOfFascists@reddthat.com 1 points 10 months ago

I think you're missing the point. Do you think people that write this garbage call themselves journalists? Of course they do but that's irrelevant

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

The people who wrote that work for Fox.

Actual journalists don't write garbage like that.

Well that's depressing.

I'm sure it's less common with places like Reuters and AP.

Depressing nevertheless.

[-] tiredOfFascists@reddthat.com 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, it is. Also have you noticed how many typos and ads make it into news articles these days? It's bonkers. I even see headlines from huge outlets with typos.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

I don't know, this is a pretty humiliating defeat for the guy who called it dangerous and "woke."

[-] Burn_The_Right@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

DeSantis Ass-Blasted by Psycho Curriculum! Extreme Edition!

[-] PlantDadManGuy@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

God damn lemon stealing Ron!

Or the alternative of DESTROYED, DISMANTLED, or TORE APART

You read it, they disagreed and said why they did, pretty much

I refuse to read that trash
