When Glenn Beck came out firmly against Trump, talked about alliances between the left and the right to counteract him, and *makes sense* (mostly), then I knew we were either in the Twilight Zone or the End Times.

I heard it on one of “the shows” as ump calls them. Apparently, someone in the crowd started chanting “Build the Wall” and holding up a poster saying the same, and he ignored him until the crowd began to chant along with him, and then he basically said fuck it, and repeated the line back to massive cheers. lol
The mental disconnect is unreal. When fucking Ted Cruz and his cronies shut down the government a few years ago, my cousin (who lives in his district and loooooves him) ranted on FB about how this was all very necessary to stop Obamacare, which would be the DEATH of us all. Four days later, public opinion has firmly…
Does Donald Trump even know what words mean? Or is he hiding a parrot in his hair that is actually just putting together words he’s heard throughout the day?
I know there are a thousand more important reasons to loathe this man, but lately, his inane repetitions are making rage boil over.
Every time he back tracks on a past statement of his that he swore was written in stone, I can’t help but think of this fantastic pieces from The Daily Show. (It’s always why I think Noah is finally finding his niche in the mess that is Trump.) I wonder what Trump’s talking heads will say now.

You have REALLY mischaracterised the Another Round podcast by lumping them in with softball interviews/ers. This makes me question the validity of the self righteous tone of the piece. Perhaps the podcast deserves another listen on your part.
It should be self-evident that your very recent corporate parent was an obstacle. What remains an obstacle is your the site’s history, and that of its writers and editors.
Oh my God don’t try to make it better. Please. As your (old) friend, I plead for mercy. The influx loves their Clinton-had-sex-with-Monica jokes; they do stuff to the comment section reminiscent of bukake; they don’t convincingly evince any fluency in feminism beyond ripping on Bill Clinton and eventually (or…
I CAN GUESS that it might have something to do with GAWKER and JEZEBEL saying FUCK YOU to Hillary when some old man with unrealistic ideals and messy hair showed up. Jezebel savaged her when Bernie showed up. It was shameful and VERY DISAPPOINTING to those of us who have loved your Hillary coverage for a few years,…
The questions you’ve put forth, at least the ones that you’ve listed here, are unrealistically tough. Unrealistic in two ways - 1. You won’t get the interview. In the give and take of reporting, you have ‘given’ nothing - no opportunities for her to be humanized or come out looking good. No questions that point out…
It’s already been said in the comments but I’m going to rehash it anyway because apparently this is confusing: Jez has pretty much been anti-Hillary since the get-go. And I read Jez a lot! But it’s pretty funny how you want to be serious news when it comes to asking her only negative questions and yet there really is…
Jezebel isn’t the only media that can ask hardball questions. The Another Round interview with Hillary was excellent, both hard-hitting and fun. Also, they asked questions that white woman focused media would never think to ask. Cheers to Heben and Tracy!
We believe, sincerely, that smart young female voters can do better than what the Clinton camp has made available to them, and that was an integral part of our pitch to the campaign.
Gee, maybe she doesn’t want to answer 500 variations of the question “Why aren’t you Bernie?” As I said elsewhere, you think her campaign wants softball questions, but maybe it is just that she doesn’t want to walk into an interview where everyone is basically hostile to her.
Could it possibly be that jezebel, or at the very least the majority of writers that contribute to it are a raging dumpster fire that actively make feminism seem like nothing short of a threat?
To say nothing of all the legal issues, morally bankrupt content and less than friendly coverage of clinton. Don’t get me…
I’ve seen it on Jezebel at least three times over the years. The only person I can specifically name as having said it is Jia Tolentino.
anna bae you know you are the absolute moon of my life, stars in my sky, the one to my direction, but i have 100% seen writers make this claim before. it hasn’t been anything recent, but i know i have seen it, though it was long enough ago that i cannot recall if it was by anyone on the present team. i would put money…
To be fair I think that the reputation is well deserved. The commentors Clique, the ‘greys’ (and I write this knowing I am there and will remain so,) hypocritical articles and comments, sheer nastiness you get her sometime... I could go on.
The internet is indeed “the worst” but this place is just as bad.
