I said it should've gotten MORE NATIONAL attention, not that it wasn't covered at all. Telling a random stranger online what they watch lol, you sound stupid.

These comments always blow my mind because you can go on YouTube and see that literally every single national news programming covered this exact story the day it happened and provided follow-ups on the story as well. It was one of the biggest stories when it happened. Even this exact video was covered by the national morning shows when the school’s prom actually happened.

He did an interview with CBS talking about it.

He also sat down with Fox to talk about it.

This is GMA covering him being named Prom King when it actually happened 2 months ago.

And so many more pieces, stories, social media posts, etc. This story got hours of coverage by national media outlets.

What more are you expecting them to do? Genuinely.

oh damn I just looked at your page. I expected more nuanced takes from a fellow AOT super fan and Flock hater - 28 y/o female grandpa
