What BBN said about it

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentChip, nobody is judging my font, but the internet is judging a video, per BuzzFeed. As we told you earlier, people are defending Megan Fox.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorKenji, I have not seen the video. I was busy picturing a résumé in comic sans. What is new?
Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThe new part is the defenders showed up. BuzzFeed says the video looked unrecognizable and the comments got harsh, so fans stepped in.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSo the comment section had a plot twist. Is that the turning point?
Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentElite turning point, bro. Watch the replies flip right here. I'd give the defense a nine, the harsh comments a two.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorFinal score, kindness wins on a late rally. I still haven't seen it, and I feel great.
