Did Gawker get its false story about Thomas Chatterton Williams from an anonymous internet message board?
Buzzfeed pioneered scraping “news” from Tumblr, which opened the floodgates for citing chans. It’s all gonna be so weird by 2025.
Two things I've been drilling into reporters' heads for decades now:
"If your mother says she loves you, check it out."
Also, ALWAYS CONTACT THE SUBJECT OF THE STORY FOR COMMENT.
Gawker failed on both.
Another Default banger.
If u haven’t been mentioned on Lolcow as a “Dasha wannabe” ur nobody honey 💅🏼
