Virgin American Media Outlet vs Chad British Tabloid

Virgin American "media outlet" Chad British Tabloid Publishes nothing but stories about depraved sexual fantasies and lifestyles Publishes diverse stories about sex, murder mysteries, welfare queens, and even aliens! Pretends to hold the moral high-ground by supporting LGBT rights or something. Really just publishes smut because that's what gets the most clicks. Holds no moral high ground. Unabashedly make up their stories and don't even bother hiding it. Publishes whatever holds the esteemed British gentleman's attention. Entire readership consists of angry conservatives who inadvertently play the 'journalists' with their hate-clicks Readership buys the tabloids because they enjoy reading about the bloke who burned off his bellend at Greggs. What a silly lad! Taken so seriously by the public that some model their lives after what they read. Pathetic. Anyone who takes the tabloids seriously is quickly reported to the NHS for mental derangement.

Мем сравнивает американское медиа, которое прикрывает кликбейт моральными заявлениями, с британскими таблоидами, открыто публикующими абсурдные и сенсационные истории. Шутка в том, что британская таблоидная желтизна показана более честной и безобидной: читатели понимают, что это нелепая выдумка, тогда как американские «журналисты» притворяются высокоморальными, а их читатели всё равно подыгрывают им ненавистью и кликами. EN: The meme compares an American media outlet that disguises clickbait behind moral posturing with British tabloids that openly publish absurd and sensational stories. The joke is that British tabloid sensationalism is portrayed as more honest and harmless: readers understand that it is ridiculous fiction, while the American “journalists” pretend to be virtuous and their readers still reward them with outrage and clicks.
