Thinking back for no particular reason to the US controversy among leftists about The Correspondent (one of the very few journalistic outlets in NL that actually did in-depth reporting on fascism and racism over the past decade), and how the discourse was completely littered with verifiably false claims about what had happened.
@joepie91 what controversy? I remember them briefly having a US version.
@ytvwld It's difficult to summarize, as a lot of claims started popping up around the same time, and it's been long enough ago that I don't fully trust my memory anymore either.
I believe the initial criticism was about them not opening a physical office in the US.
I am still wondering, to this day, what actually happened there, how much of the criticism was genuine, and who exactly the false claims originated from and why.
I have my suspicions, but no data to back it up.
