I sort of agree, but it wasn’t just “one article.” Every news outlet was reporting on what that “one article” said. It made it seem so true. Like go back on YouTube and search for “Hasan Minhaj” and you’ll see all these stories from a month ago blatantly parrot what the New Yorker said. So now that becomes a “corroborating story.” Then there’s another and another, and for 2 weeks straight all you see in the news is, “Hasan is a Fucking Liar.”
But the real damage from all of that is that there are these people that can’t change their view back to what it was. Like Hasan can never explain enough details about his personal life to ever come back into their good grace. Hopefully, people at TDS aren’t like that.
