not necessarily - typical failed spin cycle usually tries spin+fud at level 10, when that fails, retrench to level 9, acknowledging some points with their own new spin and fake surprise at 'learning something new', lather, rinse, repeat. Same thing when you call out a compulsive liar in real life. I have 0% doubt that many of the comments in these threads are calling exactly this out.

update: literally 1st pair of comments i read in WSB on this one is:

"Lol Cramer is such a great actor. “What?! Seriously?!” What a douche"

"Is he okay? He was looking off camera so frequently I thought maybe they are holding his wife hostage there or something.

Cramer, buddy, blink twice if we should call the cops."
