Overall: 
Article is new enough, long enough, well-sourced, neutral and plagiarism-free. Hook is interesting; however, I find it a bit wordy and don't see it mentioned in the article. The article also her a {{cleanup}} tag so the issues'll have to be resolved and the tag removed. Nominator only has two prior noms so no QPQ needed.

- Apologies for the delay in responding @Pamzeis:, I contracted COVID-19 and haven't been up to editing Wikipedia the last few days (for the purposes of transparency of my position on the subject matter, I will comment that I do not regret refusing the vaccine). I propose two alternatives that trim the wordiness. The first alt is less wordy than the second alt and seems fine to me, but someone might challenge the fact that the WINK News article doesn't use the term "cancel culture." There may be a source somewhere that does use that term in this case, but DuckDuckGo isn't putting it in the top results. PCHS-NJROTC (Messages)Have a blessed day. 16:57, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
No biggie! Our health should always come first. Anyways, this article has been cleaned up (thank you to Animalparty) and has less wordy alts. Somehow, I didn't see the fact in the article on my initial read. Nice work! Pamzeis (talk) 00:34, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
