No one in the world has time to watch a 15min video? I don't know sir, I find that hard to believe

15 minutes isn't too bad, but what's the gist?

Cliffs?
What are they lying about? Creating more drama than there really is maybe?
Find it funny that Kyle Whittingham is being praised by all media for his move and Lane is getting the opposite.

Because you asked nicely unlike the first prick
The video, titled "The Media is LYING! Missing Facts in the Ole Miss/LSU Coaching Saga," provides a critical analysis of the coaching transition involving Lane Kiffin, Charlie Weis Jr., and Kevin Smith as they move from Ole Miss to LSU.
The speaker argues that the national and local media are presenting a biased narrative and missing several key facts:
LSU is Funding the Ole Miss Playoff Run
• The speaker emphasizes that LSU is currently paying the salaries and benefits for coaches like Charlie Weis Jr. and Kevin Smith while they continue to coach Ole Miss in the College Football Playoff [01:23].
• LSU has allowed these coaches to stay with Ole Miss through the semifinals and potentially the championship game to avoid sabotaging the players' chances [00:51].
The "Tampering" Controversy
• The video highlights a contradiction in Ole Miss's strategy: the administration has threatened tampering allegations against the very coaches they are "begging" to stay in the building to help them win [02:47].
• The speaker views this as "biting the hand that feeds you," noting that LSU only pushed back on the tampering threats by telling Ole Miss to stop the "BS" if they wanted the coaches to remain available [10:39].
Lane Kiffin’s Departure
• The speaker defends Kiffin’s right to take a "better job," noting that while he may or may not succeed at LSU, it is a personal career decision that shouldn't be vilified by the media [03:47].
• He points out that Ole Miss's success and their presence in the semifinals are directly due to the infrastructure and program Kiffin built over the last six years [05:24].
Internal Conflicts and Hypocrisy
• The speaker notes the pettiness of the situation: Ole Miss refused to let Lane Kiffin coach the playoff games but insisted that his assistants (who are also leaving for LSU) stay to call plays and coach the running backs [03:13].
• He reveals that other coaches, like Pete Golding, also had eyes on other jobs (including LSU and Florida), suggesting that Kiffin isn't the only one looking for different opportunities [11:43].
Conclusion:
The speaker concludes that the situation is a "mess" and a "litmus test" for how the college football calendar needs to change [08:24]. He calls for more objectivity from the media and for "cooler heads to prevail" so Ole Miss can focus on trying to win a championship [11:26].

In the long term, none of this matters at all. Let it go.

Wow, I forgot he existed. His forte always seemed to be self promotion.

When it comes to OM fans....never let the truth get in the way of a good story

Edited because you did post a very good summary later in the thread (I opened the thread, got distracted, then came back, but the summary was not posted yet when I opened). You should copy that and edit your OP to include the summary.

Same as 2021 when Lincoln Riley to USC was loved by the media as “brilliant” and “sexy” while BK to LSU was “everything that’s wrong with college football”.
What’s the common denominator? Easy to say LSU but is it really that both coaches were widely considered to be unlikable and controversial?
Either way the media is being consistently inconsistent in their reporting. As always.
