Twitter thread

Different people measure the quality of journalists in different ways

I'm so tired of the Maggie hate
honestly, I like a lot of her stuff, but am not so well versed to say I've read all her stuff
I think she has said favorable things of trump, but overall she has been a harsh critic, so I find this derision tiresome
…but here we are

I think that statement independent of past baggage stands


Never heard of this guy, but the British have such a way with the delivery that Americans can't even touch

Yes, I think she may be the best journalist of the Trump era.

did you forget your sarcasm font?

Didn't realize she just singed a book deal
New York Times White House reporter Maggie Haberman, has a book deal.

No. Getting people to tell you stuff and letting you publish it is real important


Bob Novak was the same…a loathsome person (not saying Maggie is) but he had all the scoops…

I do think that unlike Novak Maggie’s time is done… although if Trump is running for 2024 maybe not

I expect my opinion to end on bad takes….

jonathan pie is amazing.  if you haven't heard of him, do look him up.  he is the epitome of refined english sarcasm, satire and observational humour.

his schtick, in case you haven't guessed it, is that he's a serious news anchor that goes off on rants between stories, while the camera is supposedly off: "… and now over to Bob with sports." <insert profane yet eloquent rant> "Thank you Bob.  Our next story is about the rise of Labour in the Midlands thanks to their etc…"

Right, in that he's English. I got you. But other than that. . .

Get yourself a social distancing cat. It’s the real game changer

The Daily Show doesn't disappoint

Twitter has had it

If I had one regret in life, is I could never put together long-winded, yet hysterical insults

Edward Norton@EdwardNorton
I will allow that he’s also a whiny, sulky, petulant, Grinchy, vindictive little 10-ply-super-soft bitch who no doubt is just throwing a wicked pout fest & trying to give a tiny-hand middle finger to the whole country for pure spite, without a single thought for the dead & dying

WHAT SORCERY IS THIS

@nytimes  Correction: We deleted an incorrect tweet that misidentified Yo-Yo Ma as a violinist. He is a cellist.

Liberals love Tiny Desk musical performances. So why do they hate tiny desk press conferences?

This is my shocked face… Ted c. “Little Idiot Of TX” is giving kudos to the new anti lockdown effort from Washed Up and Who Gives a Damn About You Anymore.., oh and apparently Liberals hate rock and roll,  clearly Ted C. Is not aware of this liberal bastion of Rock and Roll lovers

you really should have posted what he said

@tedcruz
The irony is rich. Dems are destroying many of their core constituencies: Hollywood, Broadway, pro sports, and Rock &amp; Roll.

Bravo to Clapton and Van Morrison for having the courage to stand up to virtue-signaling Lefties &amp; defend the thousands who work in the arts.
@tedcruz
3/3 Why do Dems hate Rock &amp; Roll?

although he is probably right, there are about 1001 republicans in the Arts (I think the majority actually work in the accounting dept)
I do think he is off on pro-sports tho…

What's even funnier is he hasn't listen to rock n roll since 2001 https://www.politico.com/story/2015/03/ted-cruz-rock-music-116353

I dunno was feeling ranty..

And while this doesn’t appear to be an anti lockdown song, one should be suspect of any charity that appears out of nowhere… smells like a grift to me.. I’d much rather go with an established organization
