Yahoo! is almost entirely click-bait computer generated titles with Sudanese refugees and moonlighting U.S. Postal Service clerks penciling in a few paragraphs that may or may not have anything to do with the headline. You can forget seeing the video touted in the lead, it’s not there. Yahoo! shouldn’t be allowed to criticize anyone. But they did. Gwyneth Paltrow. That still seems oddly fair.
Somebody found something saying Yahoo! CEO Marissa Meyer dropped Gywneth Paltrow from a feature gig writing for Yahoo! Food because Paltrow was a college dropout. If you guessed she had a PhD in a hard science on trivia night, you’re probably going to be asked to leave your team. The Yahoo! CEO places a particularly strong emphasis on employees having a college degree and just having been rejected by Google and Facebook for real jobs. Given that most Yahoo! Food articles are barely vetted listicles on ten items you should be including in your diet, an eerily similar list to the article they ran a week earlier about ten food items that might be killing you, the standard seems pretty low. I’m sure they could suffer a few paragraphs from Paltrow on anti-oxidant berries that taste delicious spitting in your husband’s eye and calling him a cowardly homo who ruined your life. I’m sure there’s something in the bible about the inane judging the stupid and I bet it ends in apocalypse.
