It may be fun to watch cable news pundits interview right wing liars and “own” them, but really it’s nothing more than clickbait, and ultimately serves no purpose except to help the righties spread their lies by treating them as people who are newsworthy.

And continuing to interview the same liars over and over, long after they’re exposed, just reinforces the impression that the media is feckless and greedy.

A better way to approach this would be to interview people with real knowledge of the subjects at hand who can contribute something of value. But that’s much harder than going for the cheap “own.”
