Some news stories help us understand the world we live in,

程度副詞

that the Internet is basically giving us all brain damage.

Okay? Social media is constantly bombarding us

NEWSWOMAN: Carson King  thought he'd get a few laughs.

NEWSMAN: All told, King raised  more than a million bucks.

but when I held up a sign demanding money,

And the fact that this even worked was stupid, Trevor.

But not as stupid as what he did with the money.

NEWSWOMAN: He decided  he'd donate all of it

to the University of Iowa  Children's Hospital.

It overlooks  the Hawkeyes football field,

where home games fans turn  and wave to the kids.

Wow, he gave all that money to a children's hospital.

What an incredible insult to all the hardworking Americans

Although now there's just gonna be some kid

"But we did put this empty can of Bud Light inside of you.

And if you think this story couldn't get any stupider,

NEWSWOMAN: The Des Moines Register profiled King,

by a reporter for The Des Moines Register,

The guy who raised over $2 million for sick kids

also tweeted offensive jokes ten years ago.

So is he a good person, or is he a bad person?

I haven't been this confused about how to feel

since I got a boner for my great-grandma's yearbook photo.

But at least there's a clear lesson here:

Because you only become famous if you donate the money.

If you keep the money, no one cares, and you're rich.

And if you think this story doesn't get any stupider,

as the feelings I have for my great-grandmother, okay,

After a reporter exposed this guy's old tweets,

the reporter himself got his own 15 minutes of shame.

NEWSMAN: Internet users  angry about the paper

digging up old tweets  did some digging of their own,

about African Americans,  gay people and women.

The Des Moines Register  then fired Calvin, saying,

-(cheering and applause) -Oh! That's right.

It's a classic case of the pot calling the kettle the N-word,

because the Internet will finger you right back.
