"... Remember when Rolling Stone was cool? Yeah, me neither. But it was once a center of rock ‘n roll rebellion and fighting the system."

I don't remember that either.

Rolling Stone panned the first four Led Zeppelin albums which later all went platinum/double platinum while at the same time proclaiming every Elvis Costello album to be a landmark achievement in rock music, which they clearly weren't because nobody but Rolling Stone likes Elvis Costello's awful lousy shit.

Rock and roll rebellion? What?

Elvis Costello did an excellent version of “Let’s Misbehave” in the Cole Porter movie, “DeLovely.”

” nobody but Rolling Stone likes Elvis Costello’s awful lousy shit. “

Hmm...His first three albums either went Gold or Platinum both in the USA and UK . 4th Gold in UK ...Had gold in USA in 1989 ...Many silvers in UK as recently as 2002 ...
