PGage, to moi, in part, Aug 25th:

My initial take is that this is disingenuous at best. Dude’s lyrics (see 
below) call back to Reagan’s racist “Welfare Queen” lies, and standard 
Republican bitching about high taxes and federal regulations. I suspect he 
sees himself as something like a rural libertarian than a MAGA Republican 
(but frankly these days that is making some pretty fine distinctions 
between types of snow), and is part of the crowd that is only slightly less 
angry at mainstream Republican politicians like Mitch McConnel than he is 
at mainstream Dems like Biden. The equivalent would be a Bernie Sanders 
Democratic Socialist writing a song criticizing the Police State and 
Corporate Culture and then denied he was pushing a political agenda because 
he hates Democrats almost as much as he does Republicans. Perhaps, but his 
positions are still roughly consistent with those taken by the Democratic 
Party, and if the song is a surprise hit it is because it is expressing the 
views of millions of Democrats and fellow-travelers.

I don’t think it’s a conscious decision. I sometimes read current events
articles and there are recommended other articles at the bottom of the page
and those articles are several years old and no longer relevant. It’s just
automated scraping.

These scraping tools tend not to care about when the stuff being scraped was 
initially published.  I've scanned news feeds that have stories that are weeks 
or months old.

(This assumes that People.com is mostly populated by automated tools, as 
opposed to the human tools that used to write their articles.)

surprising old flame J.R. with the news of his having fathered her child 
(James Richard, *of course*) in the later years of the original "Dallas"... 
also had the distinction of playing opposite *two* actors that portrayed 
Philip Marlowe, Jim Garner in the 1969 movie, and Powers Boothe in the 80s 
HBO original series... Thursday (8/31) in London; 80.
