    Again, I think you’re expecting too much from The Daily Beast. This is the type of article they write to get clicks. This article isn’t from the New York Times or the Washington Post, but an internet site that specializes in splashy headlines and blunt articles.

    It’s like you’re criticizing a donkey for being a donkey. “I just can’t put my finger on why, but I don’t like that donkey.” Maybe stay away from the donkey farm then.

        I didn’t say they had low standards, I said they have splashy headlines and blunt articles. In my experience their articles are factual, they just don’t beat around the bush, or sugar coat it, or whataboutulism it like the more traditional mainstream media. They’re blunt about it, that’s their identity to get clicks. My suggestion was for you not to read articles from The Daily Beast if you don’t like their style. Or if you do read them, don’t criticize. Criticizing their style is nonsensical, like criticizing a donkey for being a donkey. That donkey may not… how did you put it, sit right with you… but that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with the donkey.
