You may have arguments about specific publications, but the comment suggested a broader attack on media.

Regardless, celebrity gossip mags dont pretend to be otherwise. InTouch doesn't purport to be giving objective expert advice on anything. If a Conde Nast publication accused someone of fraud in these circumstances, there would be a demand letter from a lawyer in 48 seconds.
Even if you think they are garbage, they have much clearer disclosures of advertising.

It's not a retort to the deceptive, garbage nature of the Points Guy to say "But InTouch."
