There's nothing generational about that. Tarl does have his finger on something, but let's not call it journalism, for Pete's sake. Tarl would be laughed out of a Boomer-era newsroom because he's too lazy to check his facts. He does hot takes fresh from the brain of an emotionally arrested shut-in. In general, he's on to something. In the specifics, he hasn't the attention span to crack a book and nail down the facts.They grew up with trusted talking heads like Cronkite, Rather, and Brokaw telling them what was right/wrong, true/false, etc. They’ve learned over the years that they’ve been lied to but instead of rejecting the whole “talking head” model they instead just seek out other talking heads that claim to agree with their preconceived notions.
