So Twitter is being all snooty and saying "only" TMZ is reporting the FBI investigation the John Schneider (Dukes of Hazzard) threat of President Biden.

If it relates to a celebrity dying or fucking up, TMZ is absolutely on top of it. Their beat isn't "serious news", but they are serious about the news on their beat.

And, good. It was a threat.

And no, TMZ isn't a force for good. They are a celebrity gossip rag that pays for tips, scoops, pictures, and videos. They are not nice people. But they are generally spot on because they pay the people no one notices - servers, cabbies, janitors.

I remember when Kobe died, no one I know was surprised TMZ broke the story. It's a paid citizen snoop force.

@Cosmichomicide I feel like I should be wearing lab gloves if I look at their site.

But I occasionally do, because I am apparently a grubby little gossip-hound.

@Cosmichomicide I mean, does it matter that a sleazy gossip rag broke the news, when he actually made the tweet, and there's a record of it, and everyone knows he did it, and he didn't deny it?

I mean, this isn't the cops stopping you and not asking if they can search your car first, so the kilo under the seat doesn't count.

This is "he actually did this in public, WTF."

@CoyoteConscious

IKR? And he already came back and (LOL!) denied it after deleting it. Like he's just a good old boy, never meaning no harm or something. 🤣
