Toronto Star: pour gas on yourself in public (again)! It’ll help us sell papers!

Maybe it’s just my twisted sense of humour, but I found this tweet to be the dumbest (and funniest) I’ve seen since, well, the last stupid tweet (there’s plenty).

My questions:

  1. If a photo got someone fired, why would they want to share it again with anyone?
  2. Why would they want to share it with a newspaper, who may republish it, and get that person fired again?
  3. Am I missing something? Next up: send us a copy of your criminal record, so we can put it in the paper! It’ll be fun! Wheeee!

    I agree, but I also have never watched Jerry Springer, & all the show’s he spawned; they may be onto something.

    Don’t be surprised what people will do for 15 minutes of fame.

    Most of the people running our online media outlets are less that 25 years old. They post shit like this because they don’t know any better.
