At NotTheBee they said he doesn’t care about his rank hypocrisy because he doesn’t HAVE to. And that’s true. As a member of the “correct” political faith Aaron Rupar is not bound by any rules of journalism, nor any of common decency, common sense, morality, professionalism, or even basic standards of truthfulness.
He is the ESSENCE of fake news, a huckster and serial “misleading edits” video purveyor, who major news people from Jake Tapper to Chris Wallace and every website in between routinely use for setting the conversation and as a source for clickbait. And he writes for Vox.
He was caught in complete hypocrisy on Covid and of course he didn’t care at all.
“Journalist” @atrupar stipulates that lefties can party in packed throngs, but shames college kids for the exact same activity, only hours later.

Busted. Red-handed. Caught. And folks were noticing.
Wow Aaron Rupar is getting hit so hard on that mask tweet that he might have to shrug and semi apologize and delete that one tweet and then then carry on with the same misinformation bullshit he does every day and suffer zero consequences.

How did he react? Now how do y’all THINK he reacted?
Trumpers are very, very thirsty to find a lib to own this morning. I'm happy to serve as a sacrificial lamb if it helps our country heal. https://t.co/CD3ue6HvdV

Yep.
What he does is unethical. He’s a liar. His two tweets are just a single example of deceit. They aren’t even the most flagrant example, but it serves as a lesson because of how he reacted. It tells you what you need to know about the whole system.
(And no, by the way, Jake Tapper’s token objection about large pro-Biden gatherings this morning, which he didn’t pursue and didn’t result in a “SUPER SPREADER” headline, does not count as an offset.)
