        Okay, so why not the head of Ticketmaster? Or the DoJ person? Swift is not involved in the case at any level, so.

        Why a picture of her and not the people actually involved? You know why. Or you should know why.

          Because it was her tour that sparked it and she’s more famous than the head of ticketmaster and the DOJ person put together. People making news like clicks. Why are you being weird about the fact that news companies like it when people consume their content so they can make more on advertising?

        Well sure but. Why not Metallica or Neil Young or Pearl Jam or Mr. Burns, or anyone else who actually took actions against Ticketmaster? Is it because they’re all gross old, and occasionally fictional men? It is.

          You nailed it whether you meant to it not, it’s because none of those artists are relevant anymore. I say that as a fan.

          Even when they were at the height of their fame, they had a significantly smaller fan base than Swift does now and a fraction of the influence
