The success of The Daily Wire, the website run by right-wing pundit Ben Shapiro, on Facebook is mind-boggling. The site has a small staff and primarily aggregates content from Twitter and other news outlets. Typically, its articles are very short, usually less than 500 words, and contain no original reporting. Tl;dr: stories from his site spread like wildfire on Facebook in part because they're shared by a network of pages that mainly traffic in posting years old racebait stories as though they just happened recently. --- kin to all that throbs ...

I makes sense, ppl are still 50/50 politically
Daily wire "seems" like a reasonable source to boomers, and its not branded as some conspiracy site --- http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3475/3291766630_b434e97925.jpg 3DS: 1005-8921-6109 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Not sure what this has to do with the topic at hand. It's just signal boosting. Take away all the editorializing about racism and their main complaint is that Facebook pages are signal-boosting daily wire stories which leads to more views. I consider the video relevant because it's an extremely common practice for news stations across the country to just read the same script because it's easier than writing their own. It's the same thing the daily wire does, only in analog. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

Other stories published on TadHaps in the last few days include a remorseless Black gang member who dragged a police officer behind a stolen car, a fast food restaurant that was changed the name of menu items to be more respectful of Muslims, and a 13-year-old girl who was raped by five men. None of the stories mention that these incidents occurred months or years old. News articles can be so dangerous. There are billions of people out there with so much going on. If you want to craft a narrative, there's too much to pluck from. --- You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending. -Misattributed to CS Lewis ...
