I had an opportunity to be on KVOI with Matt Neely and Brush Ash.  It went a little something like this.

This used to be the most disgusting Tweet in my files.

Set aside the fact that Mark Curtis doesn't know the difference between "sew" and "sow" and focus on what Curtis is saying.  He's saying that the dead hunter DESERVED to die.  At the time, this level of cruelty surprised me. 

No longer.  Reporters on Twitter have reached a new level of cruelty.  Check out this modern version of the "Elephant falls on hunter" story.   

This is a "reaps what he sows" story that glorifies the death of a 37 year old Navy Veteran.  That's the only reason Dan Nowicki Tweeted it.  The only national news value is to revel in the irony that a guy who famously refused to wear a mask died of COVID 19. 

The cruelty is compounded by Craig Harris clicking "Like". 

Unbelievable.  

I'm sure that you've heard the term "flyover country".  That's the derogatory term that elites use to describe the part of the country that they are forced to fly over while jetting from LA or San Francisco to New York Chicago or Boston.  Expressing disdain for the most of the country is a form of virtue signalling.  Sure, you might have to cover events in, say, Albuquerque or Tulsa, but you don't like it there.  You are "in" but not "of".

I'm from Tucson, and my parents still live there.  I don't consider meth seizures to be a defining feature of Tucson*.    Facebook isn't the only thing that's driving newspapers into bankruptcy--condescending, virtue signaling columnists drive away readers.

When I started writing Espresso Pundit in 2004, Lee Enterprises' stock was trading at $47.00 per share.  Today it is trading at 86 cents. 

*The three defining features of Tucson are Mountain Views, Monsoon Storms and untimed traffic lights.
