It's an elder meme at this point. It's the second frame. The first one shows the unarmed astronaut looking at the earth and saying something like " it's all just ..."

Small presses?? And just to clarify, not being snarky or anything, I just want to check what I know and what I assume, here.

The media owns a lot of news media. Curiously, some platforms still allow independent media to leak though.
