The quote cited here is clearly true. Dems have absolutely shifted their views on the effectiveness and morality of barriers at the border. . Well, clearly they are 100% accurate, because their "ruling" is based on: Quote The fence was different from the wall Trump promised to build on the campaign trail, which he said would be made of "hardened concrete" as tall as "95 stories" with a "very big, very beautiful door." Since Schumer (and the rest of the Democrats) didn't actually vote for a 95 story wall with a big beautiful door, Trump lied because we must take every hyperbolic statement he makes completely literally with no reason, nuance, or discernment possible. #OrangeManBad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best part of this story is that it was RR's office who asked them to make a statement rebuking the story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 ALONG WITH MOST OF THE MEDIA, INCLUDING MOST OF THE “CONSERVATIVE” MEDIA: I Failed the Covington Catholic Test: Next time there’s a viral story, I’ll wait for more facts to emerge. As I watched the longer videos, I began to see the smirking kid in a different light. It seemed to me that a wave of emotions rolled over his face as Phillips approached him: confusion, fear, resolve. He finally, I thought, settled on an expression designed to mimic respect while signaling to his friends that he’s got this under control. Observing it, I wondered what different reaction I could have reasonably hoped a high-school junior to have in such an unfamiliar and bewildering situation. I came up empty. He certainly did better than a lot of allegedly mature and sensible journalists and pundits. Which is the problem with this resolution at the end of the article: “I’ll get my news from legitimate journalists instead of an online mob for whom Saturday-morning indignation is just another form of entertainment.” But it was the “legitimate journalists” who pushed this story and the dishonest video. It was other people who got to the truth. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob's House Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 If an old white man walked up on a group of black kids, invaded the personal space of one, and began banging a drum in his face, how do you think that would go over? If the black kid stood and smiled at him would there be outrage? If he punched him in the face would there be outrage then? Or would they say the white man had it coming? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point in posting it was to suggest that yes, Tapper has a point. You have to fact check Trump more because he (demonstrably, statistically) lies more often. Simple as that. I read 62% of your post then read 33% of mein Kampf. Then read 67.1% of statistics are not right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 IT GETS WORSE: Not only did the Keyboard Warriors use misleading video edits to smear the Covington teens, and not only did media and our celebrity superiors jump on the Outrage Train without any fact-checking, but now the “righteous” have doxxed the wrong kid: who is now getting death threats. Nice going, all you virtuous jerks. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon the day of reckoning will come for the "free press." To be fair, I think a lot of people agree in general with your position. Where the disagreement comes in is the solution proposed. Just like my earlier comment this morning to the Dude, you can't fight fascism with more fascism. Expose the corrupt journalists, prosecute those who have committed actual crimes - no one argues that (I think). But there are plenty of partisan journalists who haven't committed any crimes, but are merely just either partisan hacks or asshats when they were (unknowingly) running fake stories/propaganda. Those are tougher to deal with, but the principles should remain the same. Expose them as frauds to their audiences and the market at large, and let the marketplace deal with them. imo anyway 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
