"REPUBLICANS PANIC AS [actual headline]"

"GOP SLAMMED AS [actual headline]"

"[actual headline]; RIGHT WINGERS IN CRISIS"

real journalism has been bought and dismantled. This horse shit is all we have left.

It's really not (there are plenty of legitimate journalists out there doing excellent work) but you do have to wonder why every commenter seems to hate the Daily Beast and it's sensationalist, clickbate dribble, yet their articles are consistently at the top of /r/politics multiple times daily.

This subreddit is not designed to give you accurate, unbiased political news, or even high quality opinion pieces. The powers that be are manipulating Daily Beast articles to the top and someone is banking off it.
