With Tasha K's $4M loss to Cardi B, Jason Lee's Hollywood Unlocked being flagged as a false information page, and DJ Akademiks caught not only misleading readers but hopefully the reason Tory Lanez faces contempt of court charges; "new media" has taken major Ls in 2022.
As expected, all three have decided to double down on their missteps instead of just offering up a retraction and apology. Tasha K has already gotten her punishment; we will wait to see the fallout with the other two bozos.
So, I just want to hear y'all overall view on "new media," specifically those in the tea spilling sector, and what's next for them. Here are some questions I have:
Where do you all think "new media" is headed?
Why do you think they all rather risk their platforms than just retract, apologize, and move on?
Will there need to be 1-2 more lawsuits for the rest to get it?
Is their willingness to lie the main attraction to these types of blogs?
