      I don’t understand why anyone would be surprised that a for-profit media organization is hiring reporters to report on stuff their consumers want.

          I don’t know Swift fans are on a whole another level. They want it and there are lots of them.

          that consumers are all fucking retarded?

          I think we stopped using that word in the 2000’s.

    As long as they report on how she wants all her fans to vote I am fine with this.
