The johnny dep and amber herd trial has entered its sixth and likely final week of testimony. Toda talan tifany, a staff writer at theatlantic, explains why the inernet hates amber herd so much. The first wave of coverage was journalists being like is this real? Like, are these bots or these people? This can't possibly be like, such a widespread topic of debate.

This episode was produced by Amina Al-Sadi with help from Hady Mawajdeh, edited by Matt Collette, fact-checked by Laura Bullard, engineered by Paul Mounsey, and hosted by Sean Rameswaram.
