It’s a weird headline, but the discussion is around how journalists and the public look through internet history in cases like this. Some of it is helpful, some of it is not.
In particular, it’s a response to this article:
The game in this case being AmongUs…
Monday night, NBC News published an article with the headline “’Extremely Ironic’: Suspect in UnitedHealthcare CEO Slaying Played Video Game Killer, Friend Recalls.” This article is currently all over every single one of my social media feeds, because it is emblematic of the type of research I described above. It is a very bad article whose main reason for existing is the fact that it contains a morsel of “new” “information,” except the “information” in this case is that Luigi Mangione played the video game Among Us at some point in college.

It’s used in everything from pesticides to baby formula… when are people going to wake up to the dangers it poses?
Seriously, do you have any idea how bad it would be for the economy if we did that? You guys wants us becoming as poor as europeans?? Look you have to let the free market decide which chemicals do and don’t go into your body. If I were a grandmother I would gladly drown in dihydrogen monoxide just so my children could work more hours in the excel factory. It’s what Adam Smith would have wanted!
