the most media groups don't have time to "waste" on reporting that requires more than a press conference and a press release. They need X number of articles from a reporter per week. Crank it out.

@espn.com is acting like pro wrestling is a sport where the outcome hasn't been predetermined. What it takes for one wrestler to beat another is to appeal to the people in charge of the narrative. Nothing is determined in the ring. Otherwise ESPN would be letting me bet on this match.

Why do these people act like kids can't find these books online or borrow them from their cool relatives?
Most of the banned books "parents" either don't have kids or their children haven't cracked a book in years.

it's still a strange shock when I'm watching an online screener of a film and my name appears on the screen as if I'm an actor in it.
