I don’t really get what this is making fun of

[-] superniceperson@sh.itjust.works 51 points 2 days ago

The naive idea that exposing corruption or illegal acts makes any difference.

Yeah frick journalism, what good is it anyways? /s

[-] spooky2092 15 points 2 days ago

Journalism is fine, it's the societal ambivalence to the corruption and crimes of the rich and powerful that's the problem.

I wish it was fine, but most journalism is under corporate control, aka "We're not going to show this because this company/person is a big source of money to us"

[-] samus12345@lemm.ee 6 points 1 day ago

That's true, but even so, corruption and illegal acts manage to get reported on. It just makes no difference unless the person doesn't have enough GOP connections.
