      back in 2016 -- as soon as editors started greedily gobbling up the pitches from lazy freelancers -- DM'ing with extremely online racists became synonymous with "journalism"pic.twitter.com/hXC5U5nNKs

      In a media world with minuscule budgets for travel and research, and with freelancers needing to deliver 2-3 stories a day to stay afloat, this was a kind of golden age for bad, thumbsucking content

      There are few subjects more willing to talk at length for the sake of a 2000-word profile than some alt-right thought leader who spends most of his day hanging out in mom's basement and firing off angry tweets

      So would they just DM some random anonymous account that used racial slurs and had a pepe frog picture and that would be their story?

      Yep. I wrote two such stories for VICE. I talked to Ricky Vaughn, the Twitter reactionary, on Twitter for many hours across several days. I quickly realized this was why I needed to get back to the world of 9 to 5 work ... I didn't want to hustle this kind of material

      I was one of the original people banging on editorial doors telling them to cover this (hence my being on a BBC show with Milo) and then as soon as I saw the resulting coverage, I wrote a long essay for @belt_magazine begging people to stop covering them.

      Oh yeah that's right, I do remember that and also you wrote a great article on Milo too about how he was a failed artist and all that as well

      Yes, I think that piece was right on the money...he actually collapsed not long after that. I stand by that one

          I think this is hilarious: MY is now so desperate for clicks that he’s trying to do a bargain basement version of what @ContraPoints does, but without the smarts, insight, or charm. Tall wigs do not an intellectual make.https://twitter.com/casersatz/status/1111348399570407424?s=21 …
