“In 2014, the business model for journalism (so-called) is as follows: manufacture some perceived outrage and let the delicious page views and ad revenues flow forth.”

IOW, journalism has become Pro Wrestling.

“journalism has become Pro Wrestling”

I think pro wrestling is more honorable and honest than today’s journalism.

Yep, manufacturer some liberal outrage, in this case the issue of wrestling being racist, and the hits will keep coming.

Its like it doesn’t matter whether there is any truth to charges of racism. Just put it out there to generate controversy, to stir the pot so to speak, and they gets tons of hits on the site.
