you’d sing a different tune
I think you maybe haven’t been listening to the lyrics very closely when I start singing about 4chan.
Don’t try and trick me with your mere facts!
The person the article was about I guess?
So when Big Jim went and personally commented on HN, he was which of those lovely little monikers?
When those things happen (ie :the Dark Skies/MDE IT’S JUST A
PRANKSCAM BRO) Horse News are generally not alone on condemning some controversies,so no sorry,Horse News is not the Wikileaks/last bastion of integrity of the fandom.Horse News put too much spotlight on some LE EBIN INTERNET DRAMA OF THE DAY shit that nobody except channers,EDiots and other LE EBIN CRINGE SEEKER give two shit about.I suppose you are.
Maybe I’m just being petty, but I’m still sore over their defamatory article on Mythril Moth a couple years back.
…I will admit, that they are still better than the Foal Free Press website. At least they don’t mock people with legitimate depression issues.
@TexasUberAlles
I guarantee if they covered something that you thought needed the HN “treatment” you’d sing a different tune.
But enough about ED…
But enough about NBC…
“They’ll write about things or do research on petty,obscure, Internet drama shit that nobody in their right mind cares about and that nobody on his right mind would put a spotlight on it to avoid Streisand Effect”
Fixed that for you
Really? 50%? That much?
When half the articles are trolltastic, intentionally inflammatory bullshit disguised as news, it’s pointless to treat it as anything other than a less-funny Onion.
The actual articles on Horse News will surprise you with how often they’re well-written
A “well-written” “article” on Horse “News” would definitely be quite the monocle-popper.
There are Horse News articles that contain outright lies like this:
No journalistic integrity at all.
Ignore the comments. The actual articles on Horse News will surprise you with how often they’re well-written.
Well, if we’re really gonna go there (and I do mostly agree with you), I’m going to post my favorite exchange from the comments of that article:
Horse News commenters are the distillation of the most imbecilic and assholish people from /mlp/, and /mlp/ is already the most pure concentrate of deluded, self-important morons present in the fandom.
Well, most of them are from /mlp/.
Some of the comments were a little cringey, though.
See? Horse News isn’t all bad.
…Okay, my mistake, the attitude was basically, “You tell him, Jim!”
Don’t be afraid to merely visit the site and read an article.
…I’m honestly kind of scared to click that link, knowing that site’s tendency to demonize people.
