    I like that he pointed out that he’d think differently about someone if he read that article. I’m happy I can like Hasaan again but am mad at myself for taking modern journalism to heart before hearing a response. Unfortunately, I also get the writers motivation. This article would’ve never gotten so much attention if it had been the in depth fluff piece Minaj thought it would be. We all suck.

      It’s a really bummer that she got to do a piece on this guy, and this was the best angle she could come up with.

      If someone is gonna bend the truth to entertain me, I will gladly choose a freaking comedian doing a bit over a journalist. For a show, there is an implicit agreement that the audience will suspend disbelief so that they might be entertained. I shouldn’t have to have the same agreement with a journalist. I’m beginning to think that journalists actually needs to put “fact based fiction writer” as their tagline so we can actually know what we are getting in to.
