Ever wonder, "How did journalism become so reviled?" Well, look no further than one of the primary contributors himself:

Ben Collins, NBC news reporter, is a 34 year old who covers “disinformation, extremism, and the Internet”. Many will likely recognize Benjamin from one of two things: trying to get websites he doesn’t like taken down or appearing on television anytime a shooting occurs to talk about Tucker Carlson.


Family
Ben was born February 17, 1988 to Thomas P. Collins and Laurie A. Collins of Byfield, Massachusetts, and has a brother, Chris Collins.

Tommy is a 67 year old savvy businessman, co-founding ThreeCore, Inc while acting as its Executive Vice President for nine years, as well as being employed as the Vice President of Operations at Mersen in Newburyport, MA for the past fourteen years. Tommy, like a proper businessman, is really only interested in Linkedin. He doesn’t care much for the rest of the Internet, as he blames it for how his boy turned out.

Career
Benny loved sports, music, and black people. But he couldnt play sports. Or music. And his parents wouldn't let him around black people. What's a boy to do?

Life is perfect. Spending all day on Twitter while that dumb bitch Brandy does the work. Who’s Brandy? Oh right, she’s so forgettable I forgot to mention her.


Partner in Crime
Brandy Zadrozny - Brandy Lynn Jolly
42 years old
August 30, 1980
11a. Swamp Donkey.jpg
Brandy was a co-worker at the Daily Beast and has a face for radio, so spends her time researching. She’s also married with three kids. I’m assuming in-vitro because her husband spent more time at their wedding kissing other men than her.

Husband Gregory Zadrozny - married April 24, 2009 in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

Brandy attended Pratt Institute from 2007-2008 and worked as a librarian at the Burlington Public Library. After working for Fox News (2011-2013) she went on to Daily Beast (2013-2018 ), and then was dragged to NBC news (2018-Present). She's also a pedo-apologist.

The Benjamin Special
This was a golden opportunity. Ben doesn’t want to report the news. He wants to be the news. That’s where Brandy comes in. While Ben practices head positions in the mirror to make his eyes look normal, Brandy can google search everything that Ben stole from Twitter. After at least five excruciatingly long minutes of researching the first page of searches, the dynamic duo channeled their writing prowess honed on years of Tumblr use. Once done writing the article, an email or two later to the subjects involved in said article, and BAM, NBC news award winning journalism.

For clarity, an example:
4a. Boner Time.jpg
Ben, future NBC news reporter, wore baggy pants in anticipation of arousal, but neglected
the texas-tuck. His victim, trapped, can only look on in horror as he fumbles with his notes in a
clumsy attempt to hide his erection. When reached out to Ben confesses it is him in the photo.

But what happened to little Ben? What made him lose his way?

College friend Chris Hurst’s girlfriend, Alison Parker, is killed on live television while reporting. Normal people would be distraught. But you’re not normal. You’re Ben Collins. Ben Collins, NBC News Reporter. Your journo brain whips into high gear and comes to the only logical conclusion. Make it about you.
8. No, Ben watched it happen.png
Original/Archive
The timeline should be noted: In 2015 Ben saw the video and spilled all his spaghetti. By 2020, he had merely woke up to the news. That’s called foreshadowing. If you already knew that, you’re a nerd.

This is where things changed. Ben developed a hunger for the deaths of others and learned he could use his new appetite for attention. And like any theater boy, Ben needs attention. All of it.

Twitter
Benjamin loves Twitter. Not like. Loves. He created his account on January 7, 2010 and hasn’t missed a day since. Something happened near the end of 2016 that caused Ben some distress, since everything before then was deleted. Even with all those tweets linking to his Tumblr and Furaffinty posts gone, he still has almost 56,000 tweets on his account. 25 tweets a day. Every day. For six years.

In case you need it spelled out for you:
>Keffals has claimed numerous times to have press connections, and has even brought them up to threaten Destiny
>Ben Collins, along with Taylor Lorenz (who previously wrote a very favorable article about Keffals for the Washington Post), have both written articles in defense of Keffals back in August/September
>Few months later, Keffals reads out "automatic payment from Ben Collins" on stream, only to IMMEDIATELY regret saying the name
>Ben Collins, when confronted about this on Twitter, immediately denies it and acts like he's above watching Twitch streams, claims with Keffals that the donator's name was totally a coincidence and it just so happened to be of someone's deadname
>At a later point, Ben would ask publicly about how to delete Twitter DMs so that both parties could no longer see them, which is totally not at all suspicious


Conclusion
Ben Collins, NBC news reporter, and his trusty partner Brandy have perfected modern journalism. Objectivity is antiquated.

Ben doesn’t care to know what the truth may be, because he already knows what it should be.

You could put the doxxxxxx stuf at the bottom it's not really that relevant.
His article about Parker is okay nothing that selfcentered by modern journalism standard.

If he spergs out again massively and continues giving milk this could maybe work.
He certainly is active on twitter and wants attention

Also part of your commentary feels very biased like you have a petty grudge against him.
Sometimes being a bit more neutral allows you to get your points accross more easily and sometimes to be more funny too.

Also where would this thread go? InternetFamous? Stinkditch?

An enemy of the site? Sure. A lolcow? Probably not unless you can dig something up that's actually funny. He seems a fairly typical yellow journalist.
There's a non-zero chance that he will start producing more milk once he gets wind of his KF thread.

I agree. Whilst the OP has done a great job overall, it'd be even better if it didn't stoop down to Collins' level. I know OP might find it tough to resist the urge to editorialise - especially where one of the Farms' more prominent existential threats is concerned - it's easier to take the high road when it's not being blocked by the OP's subject.
 
The uneven eyes comments should be accompanied by a few photos with superimposed body symmetry lines, at least the first time its mentioned. The tilt does make it harder to tell, but there's no arguing with lines, like that fat chick who thought some stores had mirrors that made you look fatter.
 
Ben has deliberately tried to scrub all of his personal info from the Internet, so well done OP.

Some additional info I originally posted in the Keffals thread:

His really embarrassing article about Meghan McCain from his college days (deleted from the Berkley Beacon site but available via PDF):

collinsdeleted.PNG

Weirdness re: SLAM magazine - his LinkedIn has him at SLAM from 2007 to 2012 but he was still writing for SLAM until 2020
slammag.PNG

bcollinsSLAM.PNG

Ben also does this repulsive lip-smacking thing when he talks and it's all I can hear in his interviews now.
 
Personally, I think this guy earned his lolcow status for his weird, rambling reaction after Keffals accidentally read out “Ben Collins” as a donator on stream, and then getting strangely concerned over the longevity of Twitter DMs.

At the very least, it’s a good indicator he’ll do something that will make this thread explode in the near future. They always do.
 
As it is, it's the typcial sock puppet that American news outlets hire, with active background checks to make sure they'll keep licking the boot throughout their work lives. His insecurity over his misalighned eyes, obsession about social media, stiffy over kiwifarms' shutdown, and especially his automatic payment case show he has great potential for future cow behavior. I'm sure once he catches wind of this thread he'd be tweeting #dropkiwifarms as much as Sinseer himself.

Good OP. Looking forward to this cow's future milkings.

Most likely he already did.

He reacted like somebody who wanted to Gay-Op but majorly freaked out once he found himself getting the attention of the Kiwi Farms. Therefore it's safely to assume dude's got an interesting closet.

All resemblance to a certain big glassed, unhygienic, glowie psychopath in training is not a coincidence.

Enemies of the site almost always have something lulzy to hide, and don't reveal it until our Eye of Sauron is upon them.

We didn't discover Keffals' troonshine, or Liz Fong Jones' cybercrimes and "consent accidents", until after they had their own threads.

And nice touch mentioning Brandy Zadrozny, OP. She's another corporate media hatchetwoman who publishes guides on how to dox random Trump supporters, and is a pedopologist.

I wouldn't call these things lulzy...

Those two worked very hard to have their own thread, they had been freaking out by the Kiwifarms way before they had their own threads and their shit would have never been uncovered had they not kept squealing about a thread they yet did not have and antagonising the Farms hard for seemingly no reason or in a transparently fake altruistic "for the greater good" manner.

This seems to be the case of this journo too.

Obligatory Toothache Thread Lore:

Ben Collins of NBC News wanted to tell everyone a quick story (nitter archive) about the guy who shot up a grocery store in Buffalo, NY. The shooter had been using a private Discord server as a diary, in which he wrote about how he had a toothache and a Jewish dentist. He also drove 200 miles to a grocery store in a Black neighborhood and killed ten Black people, but Ben Collins (the NBC News guy, not the racecar driver) wants to make sure you blame disinformation on the internet, the HATE SITE 4chan, and of course, Tucker Carlson. There's blood on your hands, moot!

Twitter users had some constructive criticism that Ben definitely took to heart (lol no he didn't). Here a pair of articles full of embedded tweets (the best kind of journalismism): The Wrap: NBC Reporter Skewered for Saying Racist Buffalo Mass Shooting Was Rooted in Killer’s Toothache (archive) and Mediaite: NBC Reporter Under Fire For Reporting on Racist Buffalo Shooter’s Toothache (archive). Even the penis/bussy enthusiasts at Data Lounge got in on the action (archive).

A quick sample platter of how the toothache thread was received by people who have more in common with the shooting victims than Ben Collins of NBC News does:

The 4th of July has a different meaning for Ben Collins than it does most Americans: it's the day of the chop suey sandwich, which "only exists in Salem, Massachusetts" even though it's just chop suey on a hamburger bun and he could probably make them at home.
