Slop Journalism

1. The journalistic equivalent of reheated cafeteria leftovers — rushed, messy, and guaranteed to make you regret consuming it. Facts are half-cooked, quotes are cherry-picked, and Twitter drama is treated like Watergate.

2. Reporting so desperate for clicks it sacrifices accuracy, nuance, and dignity. Think: screenshots of tweets as “investigations,” anonymous DMs as “whistleblowers,” and influencers’ bad hair days framed as “the downfall of society.”
Taylor Lorenz is the LeBron James of slop journalism.
