YSK Post Follow up: People Defended Ars Technica in my Previous Post, Here is a Proof That Ars Technica Parent Company Secretly Manipulate Reddit for Their Own Benefit.
My Previous Post (Read it first, as this post might not make sense to you, without reading the previous post first)
I saw a lot of people defending Ars Technica in my previous post. Here is a simple proof that they are an evil company:
ProPublica Posts:
Ars Technica post:
As it can be seen here, the original source of the info/Investigation was Propublica and even in terms of the story cover photo, Propublica used a custom cover.
Yet, despite all of that, as expected Reddit manipulated upvotes to boost the Ars Technica story and even deleted the second ProPublica story from Reddit.
Journalism will be fucked up, because of Condé Nast and their parent company manipulation.
You're viewing a single thread.
Are people here being deliberately obtuse or are these reddit shills also operating on lemmy bc who tf cares this much about defending arstechnica? Every comment has like five downvotes. Who cares enough to downvote this and go through the comments to downvote every comment?
It's very clearly true that reddit is using their platform to boost stories by websites with ownership of reddit. Who needs this explained to them in baby English? It isnt that hard to understand or accept, this is also why people are here instead of reddit.
baby english, new band name, called it.
Im glad this was what stood out in my comment lmaoo
Babe Ruth + Billy Ellish = Baby English
