Springsteen's ticket prices in the summer of 2022 when the 2023 tour went on sale was front page news in almost every publication in the US including The NY Times, the LA Times, The Washington Post, etc.
That article is crap, but people on social media are absolutely taking notice. Pearl Jam is trending for a reason, and a lot of it not good. If I was still in social media/community management (moved to teaching), I'd be monitoring a lot of angry fans.
I was lucky enough to get 10c tix to both Fenway shows, but they were steep even to me. There's no doubt that for the casual fan, I can't blame them.

I’m pretty sure that article was written by AI. It doesn’t even mention the price of the tickets. Oh, and it’s “the media HAVE” not “has.” Media are plural.

"The media" is a singular group. The media has, media outlets have. Pearl Jam has, the members of Pearl Jam have.

Depends on how the group is being used in the phrase ... but more importantly it depends on the country in which the article is written.

Yes, as an American used to the singular, I always shudder when soccer announcers calling USMNT and USWNT games say "the United States are" in the British English style when I'm expecting "the United States is." We're united, damn it! It's right there in the name!
Having said that, I go with "the media are" unless I'm not paying attention to what I'm writing.

If there were like...a PBS FRONTLINE special on it that'd be a different story.
Yeah it was really bad.
