Here’s an article from time talking about the modern slave trade in Africa
This is a lazy, bullshit criticism because it starts with the assumption that they don’t ever talking about something just because they aren’t talking about it now.
They report on that because that’s what their readers care about. Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
I’ll hate both, thanks.
Except they also actively silence news people want to hear in the name of politically ideaology
Do people still not realize that there’s different things for different things? And that just because there’s a focus on one thing, that doesn’t mean there can’t be focus on other things?
Everyone today is so absorbed with living in the black or white where life exists within the grey.
I get what you’re saying but why the fuck does what Selena Gomez do with her IG count as news?
To people that care about her, and have interest in her as a person…… anything she does is news.
I’d be willing to be that you have a game/TV show/movie/sport that you follow. Anything done with it- would be News to you. Would you suggest that the “journalist” writing about it stop and cover human trafficking instead?
Nothing I follow or care about compares to a celebrity changing their IG to private, no. It’s just fucking stupid and continues to play into the very unhealthy celebrity worship problem in the US.
Selena Gomez is clearly involved in the Libyan slave trade
the real fool is the one who expected the media to care about the truths and real troubles of the world, in my eyes

just because a news source does make an article on it, it doesn’t mean they promote it as much as they promote something else on their website, they make such articles to cover their backs if people make points regarding it
