So, what is a Duggar Snark anyway?

A Duggar Snark is the exact opposite of a super fan. This is someone who is just as passionate about the Duggars as a fan. The only difference? A Duggar Snark does not like the Counting On family. A Duggar Snark is someone who loves to hate the Duggar family.

There’s an entire community of Duggar Snarks that frequent a Subreddit on a site called Reddit. These individuals watch and follow the Duggar family on social media. They go over everything with a fine tooth comb. These are people who tend to notice when things are amiss long before a fan of the family would. And, they would argue this is because they don’t look at the reality TV family with the same star-stunned glasses.

Why does any of this matter?

According to a recent thread on the Duggar Snark subreddit… Members of the community noticed journalists and reporters were using various conversations to compose stories about the Duggar family. While doing so isn’t particularly an issue… Some of the journalists were improperly classifying users on the thread as fans.

We’re all famous! Lazy reporters dug into this subreddit’s comment archives from nearly one year ago to write an article speculating who might be the maid of honor for “not-even-courting-yet-Jana”.
