      WTF, @jeopardy? This is in a way almost worse than the first deal. So now, on the one hand, you have a man with a history of misogyny hosting part of the time. On the other hand, you have an antivaxxer and supplement hawker @missmayim hosting the rest.🙄🤦🏻‍♂️https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2021/08/11/jeopardy-guest-hosts-ranked/ …

      What's a @jeopardy fan to do. Alex Trebek must be doing backflips in his grave right now.

      I mean, @jeopardy: Do you remember all the times Alex Trebek made nasty comments about pregnant models or fired them? I don't either. Ditto the times he promoted antivaccine misinformation and hawked bogus "brain health" supplements.

          I keep wondering how @Jeopardy could have made worse picks, and the only way I can think of is if the producers had picked @DrOz to be the permanent host.pic.twitter.com/T4aM47GBMQ

          Oh, and WTF, @washingtonpost editors and @EmilyYahr? How is it that you didn't notice @missmayim's history of promoting antivaccine pseudoscience and, more recently, using her neuroscience PhD to hawk bogus "brain health" supplements? That's a huge lapse.

          And, because apparently there are those who fell for Bialik's claim that she is not antivax based on a video she made last fall, here's the perfect antidote of a rebuttal.https://youtu.be/5MY0Mzq3mhs

          I should have included that video in the thread to preempt the "But last year she denied being antivax and said she'd get the #CovidVaccine" retorts that I knew would be coming.🙄

          I used to watch Jeopardy every night. Is was bad enough when they started culling STEM topics. All things end; goodbye Jeopardy.

          They should have ended the show when trebek passed and started a new show. But money is more important than the shows integrity. Sad. My next question is why are people watching this show? Go fight the capitalist oligarchy instead.
