Honestly I think it's the clicks/eyeballs at this point. They face increased competition with other spaces like the online right-wing cesspools and it's spurred a race to the bottom.

Big picture I think they've reliably staked out ground out as an important cog in the propaganda pipeline. Whether it is taking a Biden speech, GOP reps and senators yelling word salads at a committee hearing turned into soundbite, or Trump babbling, they have the resources to put out compelling prop-agit product for the smooth brains who consume their trash product. The usage of that fade of Biden's hand? That was put together by someone who knows that it's way less jarring to fade it than a jump edit where it just vanishes suddenly. This dreck is churned out and snipped down to clips to weaponize in the social media space.

"There's a show called "You" on Netflix!"

What kind of ego does it take for your first assumption to be he's talking about a show called [your own name]?

I assumed they were doing a gag. Reaction seems to be split on whether it was a joke or serious.

I did not take it as a joke. It seemed the guy had some obscure point he really wanted to make but ego lady would not let him get to it.

Put me in the joke camp. She acted way too dense for it not to be staged.

I'm in the middle camp. Staged, poorly, possibly spontaneously, but nobody told the guy.

He also was pretty obviously being unhelpful.

Who wouldn’t clarify the moment the other person assumed you meant ‘their show’.
And of course, the other giveaway is that no one says ‘that was on you’ to mean ‘that was on your show’

I feel like you are giving them too much credit.

They thought they could be clever and funny and instead it was stupid and painful. They failed entirely.

If you think they are honestly just idiots, there is room for pity.

I think they are idiots but the badly executed bit there has nothing to do with it.......

if you’re at Thanksgiving and someone says their decision to not get vaccinated doesn’t affect anyone else, cut your slice of pie like this to demonstrate how that is very untrue

She didn't stop at anti-Islam insults-

She also made fun 'Mayor Pete' for trying to chest feed.

She should quit her day job.

Why? Her polling just went through the roof with a majority of the GOP, I'm guessing.

This was my exact reaction. All I see is a known liar saying 'outrageous' things for attention. That is simply normal now.
