Thanks to Joe Biden, I have been unable to bathe my family of 12 in whole milk and now am forced to use tap water. The people are hurting and we demand you fix this immediately.
While I don't drink regular milk as I am lactose intolerant, anecdotally the price of lactaid (and the store brands I usually buy) has remained exactly the same.
Look, your 'reporting' sucked. Not only did you take a situation that was comically unrepresentative of a normal family to push a narrative, but you chose something whose prices have barely gone up, if at all to make that point. *You* deserve the dunking.
Right and this would also be important context to the story, if you were doing a journalism that actually was fact-based and not just (sloppily) pushing a narrative.
Anddddddd here we go with the media defensiveness wagon-circling. Right on cue. Never acknowledge your critics may have a point. Never admit fault. Just circle. Those. Wagons.

There are legit many people (almost all white dudes) who take medical advice from Joe Rogan. I know one of them. It is utterly insane.
My one Rogan listener friend went from having no idea what Ivermectin was one day, to telling me it was a miracle breakthrough (complete with linking me to some study he didn't understand) and I was being partisan for rejecting it, like a day later. All because Rogan said so.
Ok sure Matt...maybe I should have specifically said 'RW media' and not just Fox News, but the point still stands. Between Fox, RW local news outlets & talk radio, Dems messages are completely distorted from reality once they reach most rural voters.
Ok, well this negates everything. Clearly it is not a problem because you saw MSNBC playing one time. Love to play dumb and act as if my point was that they literally are unable to load any other news outlets besides Fox.
Also, just to address this racist weirdo creep who repeatedly tweets at me from behind a block...please learn what 'one of the reasons' means. I never claimed it's the sole reason. To act like RW news media/propaganda has no effect on how Dems play in rural areas is delusional.
This is just high grade gaslighting dressed up in anti-elite fancy prose (from a bunch of super elites like Bari Weiss). The dude who started the whole Critical Race Theory push literally admits that he's doing it in bad faith, but it's actually libs who are lying.
And it's about abandoning the working class (whereas making up a fake racialized panic is actually meeting their material interests or something). This whole class of anti-anti-Republican IDW pundit are all so tired and shameless.
It's just a fact that Youngkin made CRT one of the pillars of his campaign on 'education.' And it's also a fact that CRT is not taught in any public schools in VA. You can call it a meme or say it's dumb to say, but it doesn't make it any less true.
All Real Progressives pop in to say that Democrats are the *real* racists and it's a good thing the Republicans won.
Look, the Republican's entire campaign was based on a racist big lie, but the *real* racial division was coming from the Dems (racism against White people).
A big congrats to my friend, the guy who invented a fake racial panic (with the backing of big astroturf money). Racism and lies are good, as long as they achieve the most important goal (owning the libs).
PS- Stop calling me a Republican, you liar.

Me, writing 10 years later:
Of course Glem & Taibbi are all in on the 'Let's Go Brandon' shit, because they are just generic RW culture warriors at this point, hiding behind plausible deniability that no one outside of the Fox News bubble buys for a second.
Imagine *this* being what you spend your journalistic output on, in this day and age.
