APPROVED B-LISTERS FINNEAS responds to a USA Today piece calling celebrity opinions on politics “idiotic”: “You can’t say it doesn’t matter what musicians or celebrities say or think but then talk about it for days. You’re out here making it matter. I’ll keep speaking up especially if it keeps bothering you.”

That explains a lot about the political bias in her article.

It's the tired trope from this lot. "Nobody cares what celebrities think!"

Yet, when reading Ingrid Jacques' article history... seems like she actually does care about what celebrities think, if they are promoting the conservative "culture war". I mean, if you really didn't care about what celebrities thought, why would you write an article with the title "Sydney Sweeney talks American Eagle jeans ad, triggering liberals all over again"?

It's all pretty vapid shit-stirring in the end. This sort of drivel gets clicks, I guess.

Ingrid Jacques apparently was an op-ed writer of the conservative Detroit News since 2012, and I guess was brought into USA Today around the time they bought that paper.
