Mamma Mia, it’s Via Getty.

This one photo in particular was shared by journalist Ryan Lizza on Twitter, with the caption “Via Getty, one of the rioters steals a podium from the Capitol.”

And this is when I finally laughed.
My brain was barely functioning by the end of the day, so I’m not mad at anyone.
@RyanLizza And now we know his name is Via Getty (wtf kind of name is that, anyway?) can’t someone just go to his house, arrest him on his return and bring Nancy back her podium?

Because of course his name isn’t Via Getty. The photo is from Getty Images, and it was being sourced…via…Getty…
To be clear, “via Getty” is not a person. It just means that this photo comes via Getty Images. https://t.co/SZY4yQ0AlI
And I’m sorry, but it is FUNNY.
Soon, word got out about “Via Getty” and the tweets started rollin’ in.
We need to immediately arrest Via Getty and his accomplices Via Reuters and Via Ap https://t.co/yFPWSKZz2P

So yes, while I understand the horrible and unprecedented situation that we are in right now, I also choose to enjoy the Via Getty ridiculousness.
