snafu Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 On 12/19/2018 at 11:23 PM, B-Man said: Follow up on DR's post above JUST NBC THE FAKE NEWS: America Is Not the Fifth Most Dangerous Country for Journalists, You Idiots. Second (and I don’t want to come across as glib here, because even one death is a tragedy), the grand total of journalists killed in the U.S. this year was six. The global total was sixty-three. The death of a journalist is a very, very rare event, rare enough that even a small number of unlikely incidents is enough to catapult a nation into the ranks of the “most dangerous.” Of course, that’s exactly what happened. On June 28th, a deranged man with a vendetta against local Maryland newspaper Capital Gazette walked in and killed four employees in the single worst attack on journalists in modern U.S. history. The other two deaths were journalists covering Tropical Storm Alberto in North Carolina, killed when a tree fell on the highway. Both tragedies, but clearly outliers rather than barometers for the level of danger faced daily by American journalists. Here we hit upon the third point; the number of journalists “killed” was compiled regardless of the manner of their death or the perpetrators. When it comes to calculating threats to journalism, no one would say that a freak accident like a tree falling should be treated like an ISIS execution, or that a local crazy is like a Saudi prince. But that’s the result if you use the raw number of deaths as a stand-in for “danger.” Exit quote from Twitchy’s take on the above (non) story: “Obama spied on and tried to jail journalists: meh. Trump says mean things on Twitter about biased American media: ‘add the US to the list!’” ? . To be fair to NBC, they were reporting on a stupid list made by "Reporters Without Borders". I wonder if there's a list of the most dangerous countries to scoop ice cream, or operate a hot dog cart, or whatever else some made up group want to make disingenuous lists about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatdrought Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) Upon learning the menu, all the other teams that abstained from visiting the evil orange man are reconsidering and want to know when they will be getting their bigmacs. Also, Reggie Bush says that Trumps dinner was disrespectful and horrible. Proof positive that running for negative yards in a season is not rock bottom for this guy- opening his mouth is.

The headline over the image read, "Clemson QB speaks out to defend America." The quote attached to Lawrence's image read: "President Trump got all our favorite foods, it was the best meal we ever had. Then we go and see the coastal elite media trashing it for not being organic vegan. We're football players, not bloggers. This was a perfect blue collar party." Lawrence wrote on his unverified Twitter account that the words were not his. "I never said this by the way... I don’t know where it came from. However the trip to the White House was awesome!" Lawrence tweeted. _________________________________________________________________________________________ In a video published by TMZ Sports, Lawrence said he enjoyed the meal. "It was awesome," he said. "We had McDonald's and everything. It was good." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Quote Sohrab AhmariVerified account @SohrabAhmari 3h3 hours ago Buzzfeed’s debacle is a warning to Mueller that he needs to wrap up his probe without delay. No presidency — no, not even Trump’s — deserves to have this cloud hanging over it, with precipitation falling daily in the form of false news stories. . Quote Ari FleischerVerified account @AriFleischer 2h2 hours ago Brian Stelter’s reaction to the BuzzFeed debacle: “We need to keep reinforcing to the audience how much smoke there is.” (1:38) That, ladies & gentlemen, is what’s wrong with press coverage on too many issues. Instead of waiting for facts and truth, “smoke” is good enough. . How many times does major "RUSSIA SCANDAL" news have to be substantially modified, corrected, retracted, or outright falsified until the media exercises even a modicum of skepticism?

Quote Stephen MillerVerified account @redsteeze 10m10 minutes ago Stephen Miller Retweeted Aaron Blake “if they want to believe these reports, they treat them like gospel.” Pretty incredible thing to say after your entire industry ran with “if true” and indulged in impeachment grandeur for an entire day without confirmation. Maybe the consumer isn’t the problem here. The meme and fake news conspiracy explosion on Facebook social media is a direct result of media losing their own credibility.

According to LifeNews, despite an estimated 100,000 people being in attendance at the pro-life march along with President Trump´s address to the crowd via video, the left-wing machines could not so much as "give a passing mention to the March for Life" during the Friday morning shows. .

B-Man Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) MEDIA IN VARIOUS STAGES OF GRIEF OVER COLLAPSE OF BUZZFEED TRUMP/COHEN STORY: Rachel Maddow, and MSNBC generally, is in the bargaining phase. BUT HE’S STILL A BAD MAN! Don’t stop trying to impeach him just because Buzzfeed may have screwed up, and anyway, maybe Buzzfeed’s report is false but accurate! RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA! It took Maddow 10 minutes to conclude “Happy Two Years of the Trump Administration” before turning to Ben Smith, who defended the story. See what she did there? Mueller’s rebuke of Buzzfeed becomes an afterthought. And former and current Democratic activist Chuck Todd isn’t taking it too well, either. Fortunately, Mollie Hemmingway is pushing back: To be fair, NBC has a lot invested in BuzzFeed, literally and figuratively: Flashback to 2015: NBCUniversal makes $200-million investment in BuzzFeed. If you want proof the media learned absolutely nothing from Buzzfeed episode, watch how they handle the Covington HS story. They will believe anything, regurgitate any unproven or sketchy narrative, to ridicule Trump and his supporters. This includes helping to destroy children. . .
