Beware whenever the Alt-Right makes a "mistake" that works in their favor - it is most often no accident, from that crowd that values "winning" over all other considerations - even (especially it sometimes seems) morality?
As a famous YouTube video "The Alt-Right Playbook: Control the Conversation" mentioned, bad arguments are bait for liberals to get to talking about what the person offering those want them to be talking about. Whether this journalist merely was "negligent" towards best reporting practices vs. outright hostile to them, I no longer care b/c functionally they make no difference.
