Is NPR a “random jerks news site” now?

I...I want to believe that was some kind of joke, but...maybe some people reeeeally don't like NPR or something?

Right?!? Seems highly sus.

Sus, yeah, but I'm not even sure what to be suspicious *of* lol

Do they just not know news sources? Did they not see the link? I have no clue what's going on orz

Mate i just hate news sites that practically rip their info straight off reddit or some shit.

This article adds so much more context, though. In terms of text, it's like 15% tweets, then 85% talking about the author's history, what she went through, and the situation surrounding the tweets. Looks like they interviewed her directly, too. That hardly counts as ripping their info straight off of reddit.

That’s not how NPR works.

To be honest news sites in general are shit. Nothing is really newsworthy. This shit aint newsworthy. Only newsworthy shit is... I dont know, local news and things that effect the global/national economy.
