Behind the Blog: Foolishness and Breaking Through


This is Behind the Blog, where we share our behind-the-scenes thoughts about how a few of our top stories of the week came together. This week, we discuss getting fooled, the ‘one big story’ of the week, and Ghibli.

SAM: I remembered earlier this week that it’s almost April Fools’ Day, because Joe showed us a post from a drone company that’s doing something crazy, and Jason said it seemed fake. It’s real (I think!?) but it did give me pause and make me look at the calendar. There was a time online when Brands started doing April Fools’ nonsense like, several days before April 1, especially if April 1 landed on a weekend, so it’s not impossible that a drone company would pull a joke stunt on March 27.

Shortly after the drone thing, Jason dropped the anti-Erdoğan Pikachu video into Slack, followed by what looked like a Getty Image-style photograph of Pikachu fleeing the police, taken from the ground.
