This article sure has a lot of vitriol for people using the dictionary to define words.

Most likely a psyop. Security camera footage of the scene in question does not show the bystander who was on the corner taking cell phone video. There is also missing footage from the security camera which does not explain how he was placed (handcuffed) into the rear driver side of the police suv and then inexplicably…

This is the most bad faith response imaginable to a deeply personal exploration of the whys of Rowling’s opinions. it’s also, in a nutshell, emblematic of the reasons The A.V. Club has lost so much ground in the past few years. Namely, that articles like this are the norm for this site circa 2020.
