BS

With her signature sharp perspective, Amanda Marcotte has been calling out political BS and cultural hypocrisy for years here at Salon.

It’s simple, there’s no pretense, there’s no BS.

A chat with Ben Foster is not a quick, breezy BS session: From the moment he arrives in the French restaurant Lucien, he’s laser-focused, asking his own questions, then offering considered, thoughtful answers.

It also claims that “masks provide little to no benefit in preventing the spread of viruses and might even be counterproductive,” a statement that is unadulterated BS.

But the anchor still managed to downplay voters’ concern, waving off Trump’s assault on the Capitol on Jan. 6 as a “BS issue.”
