>I'm but a meek journalist just looking to chat, not to exploit you or make lots of money off you or anything like that.
>>218656953This is why you never agree to interviews with journalists.
>a lanky british boomer mindbroke chuds this hard
>>218656953I'd kill myself if I had his physiognomy
louis is not a journalist even if he likes to think of himself as one
>>218656953>>218656983What did he do wrong? Nothing made the tiktok gym fags look bad. In fact, he humanized them and promoted them to their own audiences.
>>218657023He hardly even did anything, but the mindbreaking is real.
>>218656953>Oh no, the poor redpillers
Not a fan of Louis current work. It feels like he's too upfront and smug when asking questions. Back in the day he got people to open up because he leveled with them. Jimmy Saville and the Scientology doc broke him.
>>218656953Member when incels worshipped this guy because he made that documentary seething about how the Jews conquered the Arabs Now he backstabs you.
>>218657023he's american, he was only raised in the uk, his father is the american author paul theroux, also, its a french name, so he's of french origins
>>218657655Like Alfred Dreyfus?
>>218657207Is it?
>>218657425He was always a smarmy prick
>>218656953there should be anti-documentaries where you just follow shitlibs documenters around
>>218657765Yes it is. Have you not see the dismay this doc has caused on /tv/ over the past few days?
>>218656953OP did you mean to rhyme?Do you do that all the time?
>>218657805The streamers all do this and it always amounts to nothing remarkable. Louis pretends he's exposing retards and retards pretend they're exposing him. It's a mutually agreed upon cross promotion that fools turd people.
>>218658041I don't think the Thai bride dude was in on it
>>218657425Yup. The old docs were kino because he generally knew to shut the fuck up and just let the content speak for itself. Now he inserts his own personality more, and as it turns out he is a huge unlikable fag.
>>218657917Are you sure? Everyone seems calm to me
>agrees to be in a documentary by Louis Theroux>only looks up who Louis Theroux is AFTER he shoots the docIs he retarded?
>>218656953idk who this guy is but the massive amounts of seethe he's causing is amusing
>>218658790>Is the supermutt from jew york retarded?I wonder anon
>>218658860Cool you must like Trump then retard
>>218656953Ah yes, because TV documentary makers are so famous and rich and actively milk money from people like online grifters do
>>218659462>Ah yesfaggot
>>218656983I would because I have nothing to be embarrassed of. I'm not a fraud. I'm not a kook.
>>218658790>Is he retarded?kek
>>218657655Okay. And?You mutts are so obsessed with 'muh European lineage' you forget you're brown as fuck now.
>>218656953I hate every single old british overly liberal man alive they just look so annoying man like just look at his face
>>218659666Naive twat: a journo has decided which story he'll publish before he entered the room.
>>218660117He looks like a lesbian grandma.
The British are always the worst pieces of shit people.
>>218656953Was disappointed when he interviewed the chuds in 2022 and died on the hill of "racism = privilege + power". I knew he was lefty but I was hoping for better
>>218660081apparently he looked british
>>218657917I’ve seen amused mockery of both the low-test journo geek and the low hanging fruit brownoids he interviewed. I have yet to see dismay.
>>218658041gang stalking, right?
>>218661885"I have yet to see dismay," said the dismayed man as he scowled into the internet.
>>218656953A govt-funded outlet's "journalist" can't but be a big lame joke, when said govt is corrupt as hell.
>>218656953>exploit you or make lots of moneywould you like to be interviewed for our documentary? yes? great! Thanks.
>>218657948It was an accident, but I'm in trouble now.I need to stop this, please tell me how!
>>218656953Pretty funny how exposing the Manosphere grift kind of exposed the Documentary grift. It's the same shit
>>218656983Painfully true. I did an interview for my work in my capacity as the head of service and it was supposed to be a puff piece but the guy had apparently spoken to a former employee who said she was sexually harassed and asked me for comment. He didn't accept that my local service some 500 miles away from the head office had no idea that someone was allegedly sexually harassed and wanted me to comment on it.
>>218663170>Oh you’re making a documentary about something? GRIFTER! GRIFTER!! GRIFTER!!!The brainrot is terminal at this point
>>218658790Something I would do to be honest.
>>218656983Don't even talk to them, let alone an interview>Be 24 living with pregnant gf in a house we just bought>Journalist arrives at the door>"I'm from [some rag], do you have any comment on the drug charge?">"What are you talking about?">"Your address has been listed as the residence for a drug dealer up for trial">"Who?">"You know what I'm talking about">"I'm sure I don't, can you leave?">Leaves >Next day I find my picture in the paper under the headline "Vile Drug Dealer Refuses to Comment on Trial">Call paper>They think I'm the drug dealer>I say I'm not but they keep talking about how it's the registered address>Have 3 people turn up to my house harassing me>Do a little digging>House I bought was from the mother of the drug dealer>Another journalist gets the guys photo and realises it wasn't me>Journalist that turned up at the door calls to apologise>Sue the fuck out of them and get £75k in damages (unironically low because they revealed in mitigation that the paper only had a circulation of around 1000 people kek)Journalists are fucking scum.
>>218663222Grift is an accurate word thoughbeit. Louis doesn’t actually believe these guys are harmful to society. The manosphere guys are probably less grifty because they mostly genuinely believe these ideas they spout, even if they don’t follow them themselves
>>218658790he is absolutely retarded
>OH NO, MY MANOSPHERE HEROESHow fucking pathetic can you niggers get?
>>218656953He looks like a gayer Grandpa Joe
>>218657063no u wouldn't
>>218657152Made a doc crying about a bunch of weenies, while actively supporting the invasion of Britain by Islamists who believe the EXACT same things as the manosphere guys, and way worse.
>>218663264>The manosphere guys are probably less grifty>than the journalist doing a simple interviewThe absolute state
I didn't even watch his docu (and probably won't) but you can tell exactly what kind of person browses this board by the outrage he has caused - manosphere premium subscribers.It explains a lot really.
>>218656983andrew tate actually had an interview with bbc and held surprisingly well, she was unironically seething by the endhttps://youtu.be/nxxsD5C6zNE
First they went after incels, now they go even after men who don't care for women at all
>>218657152This was kinda based but he lost integrity points by making fun of the subject with a meme lmao
>>218663385Yes since the journalist presents himself as tackling issues he thinks are actually important and damaging to society yet he literally ignores much more important issues like misogyny in shit skin culture and their extreme over representation in violence against women, e celebs are less contributing to said culture than mass importing demographics from where women arr expected to have no rights and then claiming assimilation is a racist expectation. Secondly he is charging to see his product so he opens his product up to criticism of grifting
>>218663616>If you aren’t doing it for free you’re grifting!! Also he doesn’t do documentaries about what I want so that’s further proof it’s a grift!!Words have meaning, darling. Open up a thesaurus.
>>218656953What's the matter, anon? Did he expose one of your e-daddies as a fraud?
>>218658790All these mulattos were peak retarded and had done zero research. HStickytocky had literally no clue who Jimmy Saville was or that he was dead. Keep in mind all the Saville news came out easily within his lifetime.
>>218663257Nice. If you ever get into the position where you can financially harm journos you should always go ahead with it. They're smug, self-righteous scum with an agenda. The days of journalistic integrity are long gone and what remains are leftist activists who need to be taken down.
>>218656953You have to understand the core tenet of current year leftism: It's okay when we do it. Bullying mentally deficient and depressed introverted men? It's okay when we do it.
>>218663539And yet they will never go after actual misogyny in minority communities or extreme feminist groups. Makes you wonder doesn't it? Of course, they deny the two groups even exist, an anon brought this up last thread and it resulted in panicking leftists mass replying in an attempt to ridicule and deny. It's such effeminate behavior of them.
>>218663721>No, you see, I agree with him and he's on my side, therefore he's not a grifter!
>>218663117Sorry, now you're stuck But nobody gives a damn
>>218663925are the e-celebs louis interviews introverted?
>>218656953hes a fucking journalist, its LITERALLY his job. its like going to a fucking hairdresser and being like "you cut HAIR for MONEY?"THE FUCK DID YOU EXPECT
>>218663925>grifter manosphere retards>introvertedDisingenuous fuck lmao
Would have been a better angle to focus on their shameless cynicism and financial grifting rather than the actual beliefs. A lot to expose there.
>>218663925None of these sleazebag himbos are "introverted" or "depressed". Why would they be? Gullible retards send them all their money.
>>218664119I'm not talking about those Tate types. I'm talking about the so-called incels that leftists love to attack and humiliate.
>>218657023>chudsywnbaw go back to pr/eddit
>letting retards speak their retarded thoughts is now "exploitation"lmaoing @ ur lives
>>218664177>I'm not talking about those Tate types.Well, everyone else was, so I have no idea what you're on about.>I'm talking about the so-called incels that leftists love to attack and humiliate.When most people talk about incels, they're referring to "Tate types".
>>218664255
>>218656953ellen degeneres looking ass nigga
>>218663583That was a bit unprofessional but to be fair those guys kept trying to bully him for their streams, it's understandable he makes a joking remark or two in response
>>218663963Again, sweetheart: don’t use adult words if you don’t understand what they mean.
>>218656953>you can't make money off of something you are good atWhy do so many rightists in particular hold this opinion? Especially regarding any creative field.
>>218663925absolutely pathetic argument. you should be euthanized for the good of humanity.
>>218664330the only based and redpilled way to make money is selling telegram courses on how to become an alpha male pimp chad through dropshipping and forex
>>218664276this screenshot is the retards' Bible
>>218663257>pregnant gf has literally nothing to do with the story and is only mentioned to brag.
>>218656953>I'm but a terminally online incel making incel threadskys
lol people are genuinely riled up now? he anticipated this, your zoomer trolling/irony doesn't work here.picrel was just really solid and interesting telly. that's the context we grew up with, not 'oh noes he made my favourite streamer look dumb!'
>>218664366He was just establishing the context.
>>218663539>men who don't care for women at allWho are you talking about? Not these manosphere guys who are obsessed with not just women but the lowest tier of woman.
>>218656953>watch his gaza conflict episode when it came out>know very little about the situation before>after the episode i think the evil israelis are literally bulldozing civilian homes in the middle of the night>years later dive into the conflict for real this time>complete 180°>jews were given a home by the brits after ww2>jews being rather wealthy start buying more land from their neighbors>turks, arabs, afghans>those guys had people living on their land but sold it to the jews with them still living there>israelis give those tenants a couple years to get settled somewhere else>they refuse to leave>after some more years the israelis agree to let them live on a portion of that land>non-jews don't like the deal so they rise up>get squashed>return to the negotiating table and want to accept the deal afterall>the deal was a one time offer>years more of talking, fighting, people dying
>>218664381Tbf to the zoomers Louis has gotten really old here. Weird Weekends is a good example, Louis rarely turned up with ominous music and baleful tones investigating whatever the fck it was that week. It was light, quirky, interesting.As Louis has gotten older he's tried to move into the more serious deep dive style and it has worked in shows like Law and Order/Miami Super Jail etc ...BUT its really the wrong tone to approach the 'manosphere' with. It made Louis look old and silly. Like one segment he's grilling Myron for not having a standard monogamous relationship yet you already know how Louis would clap the freedom for anyone in the LGBTQ to have thropples or whatever form of polyamory. Like who the fck cares Louis. Oh you do because you're trying to force this narrative of big bad controlling men. Old (younger) Louis would have went in and just had fun with these 'Alphas' and the viewer would have be free to make their own mind up on how ridiculous they are. But current Louis is a prisoner of 'the message' and his show is really dull and shit because of it.
>>218656953Who exactly is the target audience for his documentaries?
>>218664539Weak men. Even weaker than the pajeets that are being fleeced by those Andrew Tate types.
>>218656953>interview subject says something barely outside the liberal consensus>louis theroux looks into the camera with a concerned look as the dramatic silence washes over us
>>218664539People who are interested in strange subcultures they might have never heard of.
>>218664582yup That's all he is now. Huge fall off.
>>218664595nope, he aint been that guy for over 20 years. Now he chases whatever was trending 3 years ago
>>218664532sorry, as Adolescence showed, the manosphere is the Most Dangerous Threat To Our Children Right Now, so any light touch or comedic elements from Louis would get criticised hard
>>218664682top kek bro
>>218664582Surely you have an example and your comment totally isn't retarded hyperbole
>>218664582He will never do a doc on the paki rape grooming gangs in the UK. What a bitch.
>>218664532yeah for what it's worth, i agree. i think the neutral/detached style worked really well. as other anons have said, it's like he was following them around and getting to know them, they spoke for themselves.now he's gotten a bit proactive in his interviewing, he puts too much of 'himself' in there (at least, views-wise, not just his personality). and yeah the production design has gotten really annoying: this started with My Scientology Movie. i'm wondering if it's more of a film/Netflix thing, 'we gotta have ominous_music.mp3!'in a way it reminds me of Gordan Ramsay. watch the original UK Kitchen Nightmares, shit was interesting and genuine (aside from the producers setting things up). i wasn't watching it for silly sweary man and fake sound effects.
now tell us again that you're not mad and he's best friends with jimmy savile
>>218659666the story is therefore how you made the journalist feel and that can be anything.
>>218658790brown clown
>>218656953>makes a fool of you effortlessly by recording the things you say
>>218664835IT'S NOT FAIR!
>>218664532>>218664804also>current Louis is a prisoner of 'the message' and his show is really dull and shit because of it.it's worth bearing in mind that the press's canned response at the moment is whenever Louis interviews The Bad People(TM), all across the UK newspaper political divide, they'll each say something like:>isn't he PLATFORMING these people?decades ago that didn't matter. if i watched a TV series about neo-Nazis, we knew they were neo-Nazis. nobody needed to tell us, 'they're wrong and bad btw.' we're being treated like children, i swear.
>>218664788of course. at this point of his life he's little more than a govt stooge/propagandist. Something must happen when you get to boomer age man, worse transformation than Gregor Samsa
>>218663616>yet he literally ignores much more important issues like misogyny in shit skin culturehe can choose what he wants for his shows. people in niche subcultures have always been what louis theroux shows have been about. islamic and black violence isn't niche
>>218664941>ivan!!!What mental illness is this?
>>218664726Louis Theroux keeping silent and letting the other guy talk and keep talking to fill the silence is literally the number one journalistic trick he uses. Have you never watched his documentaries?
>>218657425Back when he nearly took part in a porn scene set up by an infamous director who were into heavy bdsm stuff and simulating rape scenes. Or when he followed along with a couple of straight guys who went gay for pay
>>218664582it's bascially adam curtis all over again
>>218656953I was expecting him to be an insufferable wokester who was gonna lecture these guys about having too much privilege and wrong think. He doesn't strike me as such a person at all. Maybe a little politically misguided but not as obnoxious or subversive as i thought. Its a netflix doc after all.
>>218665066>wtf you can't just let your interviewee talk without interrupting himThe absolute state of tatefaggots
>>218665181have you never seen anything by louis before? he doesn't browbeat people and tell them they're bad and wrong and how they should behave, he lets people talk and reveal how ridiculous they are all by themselves.
>>218664366>Journalist is enticing people to turn up to the guys house Of course it's relevant
>>218665321Way to completely miss my point. The manosphere guys are all scammers and sex traffickers, fuck them. I just don't think his moral grandstanding over basic jokes like women back to the kitchen is that impactful, unless you're a Netflix watching middle aged woman that doesn't understand internet culture.
90% of those being fleeced by those manosphere grifters are retarded pajeets and pakis. And I'm fine with that.
>>218665440I hadn't heard his name before the recent documentary. Now i'm going through his archive
>>218665574>moral grandstanding over basic jokes like women back to the kitchen is that impactfulYou still haven't shown a single example of Theroux doing that
>>218665948happy exploring anon, his earlier stuff is a lot lighter in tone and has provided /tv/ with memes for years
I used to think theroux was okay way back in the day. He came off as a neutral party just giving a microphone and allowing the groups he talked to say whatever, and let the audience decide. Now, I'm sure there was still selective editing and stuff like that going on behind the scenes, but at least it didn't come off that way.nu-louis just comes off as aggressively biased and obviously pushing a side, rather than just letting them present themselves. He was probably always an annoying cunt, but at least he kept his mouth shutI feel the same way about Colbert. He was decently funny on the Colbert report when it was a comedy show where he satirized bush-era neoconservative pundits. But then when he dropped the act and presented his real self, everyone just realized "oh wait, he actually is just a super unlikable cunt"
>>218664354I can tell you love jews.
>>218666132Rose tinted goggles. Louis was always like that, and thats not even a bad thing inherently. What matters is the reaction to him.
>>218664325>Condescending attitude because he has nothing to sayAlso, nice projection, "sweetheart".
>>218666132>I’m not biased, everyone else is when I don’t agree with them
>>218666220Schizo
>>218665574what 'moral grandstanding'? can you even give an example? everyone is seething over this doc and most people haven't even watched it.
SEETHING SHITSKIN THREAD ON A DEAD BOARD
John Oliver does that thing too, what is this archetype
>>218666104Thanks, yea it's got a chill vibe. Seen a few from Weird weekends and the Las vegas one. Any recs?
>>218663257Fuck journos, based FAFO moment
>>218656983>>218663257I'm a journalist in the US for a modestly big outlet and it's amazing how people bunch us up as the same kind of person. Let me guess, you wouldn't be mad if I assumed all 4chan posters were virgin trannies, right?
>>218664931Swhat makes it a grift. The manosphere guys are telling people the how to fix real issues their viewers are interested in, Louis is telling his viewers these people are responsible for an issue he’s interested in exposing. The manosphere guys don’t have the solution and Louis isn’t interested in exposing who’s responsible. They both know it, but they are only interested in entertaining people for money.
>>218666416I don't care what you assume because you're a journo scum. You should unironically consider a new career path, potential one with a high mortality rate ;)
>>218666416Fuck off Journo
>>218666416>I'm a journalistOpinion utterly discarded. Can you start posting with a trip so I don't accidentally interact with you? Thanks.
>>21866641699.5% of you are scum. Even when you aren't being actively scummy, you are complicit with the bullshit and lies that your higher ups demand.Some independent journos are alright, but guess what? They get locked out of many channels because they aren't attached to the teet of Rupert Murdoch or whichever other billionaire orwellian fuckwit
>>218666416You're a whore
>>218666416Journalists used to be a cool profession. Now I see them as lower than prostitutes. Utter scum.
>>218666132Louis had to. The Saville thing fucked him up. His later documentaries were boring as well, like the Scientology one he did after everyone was already tired of the topic. He had to change things up
>>218666440>>218666445>>218666455>>218666466>>218666478>>218666490I'm just shitposting, dumb virgins lol
>>218666556I dunno anon, backtracking is a classic journo move. If you were shitposting you wouldn't need to say anything to save face
>>218666556we've... been vaporized....
>>218666566>backtracking is a classic journo movethose niggers double down on their bullshit, what are you on about you retard
>Manosphere wouldn’t exist without female/male social media disparity (troons too but that’s a separate issue)>male/female social media disparity wouldn’t exist (or be less pronounced) without simps>simps wouldn’t exist if men felt empowered and had self-worth>men would feel empowered if they were getting more dates>people would get more dates if dating apps weren’t gacha but algorithmic matching for compatibility >gacha wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t profitable ..And so on and so forth. Everything is intertwined and connected with social media at the center. But since people don’t seem to be interested in doing away with it we can only fight the symptoms. Maybe new gambling legislation that covers dating apps under a form of gacha, although that won’t happen either because of how big gambling became.
>>218663364I don't remember that being in the documentary.
>>218666636The "manosphere" wouldn't exists if there weren't millions of perma-virgin pajeets and pakis who haven't been mated with their cousins in an arranged marriage.
>>218666616Theres more than 1 play in the journo book mate. Backtracking is super common>hey thing is bad>heres proof thing isn't bad>oh I didn't mean it was BAD like that etc..
>>218664366I think it is relevant, because it makes disturbing them that much worse than if he was single at home.
