Let's give the daily beast a taste of their own "Cancel Culture" medicine...
You see, it can work both ways... You accuse innocent free-thinking decent people of being "alt-right" and try to silence and shame them but people are sick of the likes of you trying to silence free speech because the views or lifestyle not align with YOUR political dogma.
So, as a moderate member of society, I see these "cancel culture" views clearly & openly expressed by the daily beast as extremely dangerous, equally as dangerous as many far-right viewpoints.
Shame on you, you are nothing but EXTREMISTS

I read the Daily Beast, well, daily. The editorial selection of articles is intersting and I quite like the layout of the site and find it very accessible. I take exception to one big thing, however: the editorial choices of headlines. For example: "Sanders blames poor people". If you read the article, what Sanders said is that poor people don't vote in great enough numbers and his candidacy would benefit if they did. But it's not the inflammatory headline TDB editors decided to assign to the story. A great site with room to improve.

How uninformed your reporters are (including,@JustinBaragona). Without any validity you spew lies in ink. How foolish anyone would be to read your articles and believe a word of it. My Pillow and Mike Lindell represent the millions of Patriots who have been silenced in the USA today. Your ignorance on the subject of free speech and our first amendment rights knows no bounds. Your lack of research, arrogance, and gall to report news without one iota of investigation is a travesty. Tune into Frankspeech.com to watch Absolute Truth & Absolute Interference to educate yourself!

They will cheat you! Signed up for NextSock, a 3 month subscription where a couple pair of socks are sent out for 3 months. Paid $24 on Pay Pal because I didn't want a rag like this to have my credit card info. After they got payment, they informed me that the invoice number they assigned needed to be entered with a 3rd party that would actually send the socks out. BUT WAIT... In order to do that, the 3rd party DEMANDS you give them your credit card info.
Quote: "The $24 was not paid to us and you will not be charged when entering your credit card information you will only be charged if you choose to continue your subscription after your prepaid term."

Sure, after they screw me out of $24, I'm going to now give them my credit card info... How delusional are these maggots? Oh, and did I mention that there are "NO REFUNDS"? These people are sleazy internet criminals. Don't even think about doing business with them!

Will Sommer has absolutely no idea what he is talking about half the time! He still has no idea what drugs really work for Covid! All this newsletter seems capable of is misleading people!

Another 'Snopes'!
May 20, 2020

There is nothing worse than a so-called 'business' or 'company' that claim to 'go after bullies in politics and to be unbiased', however, they ARE the bullies and extremely biased. I don't have to say which side of the political road they favor. And, if it is THAT evident, they should not be trusted as any sort of 'news' at all. Just a bunch of biased, angry and opinionated fools. When I see a real news entity NOT always attacking the POTUS in a negative way, whether it be obvious or passively aggressive as does 'The Daily Beast', I tend to appreciate getting the facts and forming my own opinion. Their name (daily beast) suits them very well.

It's baffling. Today they write how Trump has proclaimed he, himself has ended covid. While I wouldn't put this past him, TDB sites zero evidence and citations to their claims. Meanwhile, the article generated over 3500 upvotes on Reddit. Humanity, especially in the US is seriously de-evolving.

False Accusations
February 7, 2020

Calling your President a Racist on the first word of the title of your post! First, off he is not a racist and for you to presume or spread lies that he is a racist in your TITLE, it should be illegal. You will get sued and you will apologize for making false accusations and instigating violent riots against the President of the United States.

I don't even think The Daily Beast could even come close to being a legitimate news source. It's so overwhelmingly biased that it actually bleeds into their narrative all the time.

So opinionated to the point that they seem to be spouting fake news at you. This new site is also incredibly intolerant of any views outside of ignorant liberalism.

Daily Beast is awful! Lies, no integrity, truly terrible! I never click on anything they show anymore. You can assume that whatever they print—t's NOT true. A true RAG—sad!

I bought an items for@$200 and realized before it was delivered I had made a mistake and it wasn't what I thought it was. I immediately contacted customer service and was told somewhere in the fine print it says certain items are not returnable because the price is so low. The VERY SAME item I discovered is for sale for $90 less at multiple retailers and online. If I could give a negative star rating I would. Plus I will NEVER EVER use them again and will stop reading their site as well.

SCAM WARNING!
I purchased "The Cube Bluetooth Speaker" from thedailybeast.com.
Be aware that upon receipt, the item turned on, but before I could get the speaker to operate and within 1 hour THE SPEAKER was completely inoperative. I tried to contact The Daily Beast for a refund, then realized there is no phone # for a person to speak with OR a return address!

Through a series of emails, they informed me told me they are sorry and that "all sales or final, no matter what!

I have contacted my bank to cancel the financial transaction for the bluetooth speaker as there is no recourse.

BE ADVISED THAT PURCHASES FROM THE DAILYBEAST.COM ARE A SCAM, BUYER BEWARE!

The daily bs
September 26, 2020

Just read an article by Brendon Hong and the headline was verbatim: China's State Media: We Should Carve Up Facebook Just Like TikTok
Facebook is and has been banned in mainland China for a number of years as well as many others such as YouTube, google, Twitter...

Hong is an wumao无毛, how could China carve up a website they already don't allow in their country? The hypocrisy is that the Chinese govt has a Twitter and fb account and yet they're banned in the country The daily beast is nothing more than a tabloid with little to no journalistic integrity. One star is too high a rating

Bought 2 items on Black Friday. Offered them on Xmas. Both were defective. Never got refunded because I was told it was too late. I am never shopping there again and you shouldn't either.
