    Although it does feel like rage bait and they’re making money off the clicks/engagement…

    If it’s true that they are

    • reporting something that he said
    • didn’t take him out of context
    • adding additional context
    • didn’t explicitly tell the reader one opinion or another

    that would be good journalism right?

      Yes, that’s true. At the same time though, the above points can be made about articles reporting some outrageous or stupid thing Trump said, but is it really necessary to publish such a piece or would resources be better spent elsewhere? I guess it depends on the goal of the outlet- progress, propaganda, or profit.
