David Todd McCarty on Nostr: Newsweek is asking readers to rank their stories with a “fairness meter.” ...
Newsweek is asking readers to rank their stories with a “fairness meter.” That’s the most ludicrous thing I’ve ever heard. How the fuck would we know? Is this supposed to be based on whether or not we agree with it? That’s not how this is supposed to work. Report the facts. Give us your interpretation but be transparent about the context.
You don’t ask the reader to validate your perspective.
We’re so fucked as a culture.
