I was saying that artists and ticketmaster and politicians are happy to sell the narrative that "ticket bots and scalpers are the problem and we can't do anything about it" when that is very much not the case. Lots of fans buy this, because they don't know any better. As a journalist, the writing I've seen about the ticket industry the last year has been so, so bad and so simplistic and so infuriating, so I decided to do this piece to fight a lot of these misconceptions

I'm glad you wrote it!

I was in quite a heated debate about this a few weeks ago, where everyone else in the room disagreed with me. Hopefully public opinion will start to reflect market reality in time :)
