This is like saying people who watched the game yesterday are "pro Tampa" because they're trying to tell you that the Lightning won, and all the media sites that are showing clips and writing articles about how the Lightning won are just not "pro Rangers."

"Here's a video showing Tampa scoring against New York."

"Whatever, you're just too pro Tampa to see that it was a save."

"Umm... the puck is in the net, the goal light is on, everyone is celebrating and the ref signaled it was a goal."

"All I'm saying is that there's a pro Tampa majority out there and they're way more active than the pro New York people, so writing about how Tampa won is going to create more clicks than if they wrote about how New York."

"But... New York didn't win..."

"Again... pro Tampa."


Edit: Also, even if there was a pro Depp/Heard thing... why wouldn't you be on the side of the wrongly accused who, after 6 years of losing work and being branded a sexual abuser, was finally able to clear his name? Like, to me, this is the scariest part of this whole thing.
Were you off in the wilderness the past 3 weeks? There was large swaths of people who were pro-Depp before the trial even happened and it grew as the trial was ongoing. They didn't appear after the verdict happened.
