Suicide Bomber Journalism

Knowingly engaging in dishonest journalism with the belief that the effect of the dishonesty will outweigh the penalty from the dishonesty. Examples of Suicide Bomber Journalism include malicious editing of a piece and leaving material facts out of a piece.
Sixty Minutes engaged in Suicide Bomber Journalism in their interview of Governor Rick DeSantis. Their editing of the piece was quite malicious indeed. It's unlikely that their viewers will ever know or care.

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.

drunk journal

(noun) A drunk journal is the product of "Wasted Wednesday." This device originated when a girl named Sarah and a boy named Phillip in a Midwestern town began writing thoughts, ideas, drawings and whatever they please into a private journal while under the influence of a certain amount of alcohol. The purpose of a drunk journal is to find joy and answers the following day as you attempt to read it aloud. This immediately results in laughter and memories, which otherwise would have been wasted.
