Urban Journalist

A sometimes obsessive contributor to Urban Dictionary whose style is more apropros to an Urban Encyclopedia listing or a private blog posting.

Long, rambling opinions fill the page, or pages, required for the Urban Journalist's "definition" -- (including retorts to every previous post).
"Some Urban Dictionary "editors" are really URBAN JOURNALISTs."

"I heard that the URBAN JOURNALIST, KungFu Jesus was 86ed from Wikipedia; and, I believe it."

Urban Dictionary journalism

he act of using Urban Dictionary for fact checking the definition of words that were used before the existence of Urban Dictionary.
According to Urban Dictionary journalism, Kavanaugh is obviously lying about the definition of boof, which he and his friends used in the early 1980s, because I read the definition on a website that was created in 1999.

World Journalism Preparatory School

A school that runs from grades 6-12.

A sad excuse for a school. Run by a stumpy, Jewish women who has no regard for what really happens inside the classroom. Mostly Greek teachers that boast their gold crosses and pronounce students name with emphases on the ''rrrrrr' or '' ssss''.

That aside, another flaw would include the nauseating e-portfolio system we are forced to use. There is no point and I hear now that report cards will no longer be in use.

Uniforms include vulgar khaki's and pasty white polos. They are un-flattering to even the most beautiful of all genders. Parents, this school teaches nothing...your kids education is at risk!
Man, she's an idiot...and look at her clothes!

Yeah, she goes to that World Journalism Preparatory School...

Gaslight Journalism

Gaslight journalism is when a journalist write inflammatory article or review bomb any personality/company by falsely accusing them of discrimination or try to get dirt on them by finding something negative in their past and run their article repeatedly to making the victim believe they are really guilty. They do this force the person/company to hire people who only believe in point of view of gaslight journalist or sometime hire the service of journalist itself. They can even manipulate them toward funding particular organisation or even political party.
Guy1- Remember that self proclaimed journalist who accused gaming company of being ultra sexist and racist?
Guy2- Yeah! what happened?
Guy1- Today he/she asked that company to hire her/him as "Consultant and expert of these issue"
Guy2- lol, thats gaslight journalism. Those companies ain't that stupid!

frowny-face journalism

A subset of the more general human interest story, frowny-face journalism takes some boring, abstract, impersonal policy change or social problem, takes a big photo of some sad children whose playcentre is closing, an old couple who are being forced out of their subsidised housing or, in this case, a recently unemployed man losing his home(s). This way, readers automatically know what to think about the story - generally 'awwwww'.
"Did you read that article about the sad children whose playcentre was bulldozed down and replaced with a right-wing lobby group headquarters?"
