GG Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 2 hours ago, TakeYouToTasker said: That's not real, right? This is also real, from the organization that uses faulty statistics to push an agenda. Question for the lefties on this place, how much have you read about Oxfam's twisted logic on wealth inequality, compared to this particular pay for play ploy by the organization? Quote It is no secret that there have been repeated, large-scale sexual exploitation scandals involving UN peacekeeping forces in Congo, Central African Republic and Liberia since the mid 2000s, often cited as the "sex-for-food affair." Nevertheless, many people are shocked by the revelations published in the Times of London that civilian aid workers for Oxfam engaged in similar practices, and that the organization allegedly "covered up" the incidents. They should not be shocked. And they would not be if the aid sector hadn't benefited for so long from an immunity to examination and criticism, an immunity akin to that which was once enjoyed in the Western world by the Catholic Church and the Church of England.

B-Man Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 The media 'collusion' echo chamber... The Media Stopped Reporting The Russia Collusion Story Because They Helped Create It by Lee Smith Half the country wants to know why the press won’t cover the growing scandal now implicating the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Department of Justice, and threatening to reach the State Department, Central Intelligence Agency, and perhaps even the Obama White House. After all, the release last week of a less-redacted version of Sens. Charles Grassley and Lindsey Graham’s January 4 letter showed that the FBI secured a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant to search the communications of a Trump campaign adviser based on a piece of opposition research paid for by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. The Fourth Amendment rights of an American citizen were violated to allow one political party to spy on another. If the press did its job and reported the facts, the argument goes, then it wouldn’t just be Republicans and Trump supporters demanding accountability and justice. Americans across the political spectrum would understand the nature and extent of the abuses and crimes touching not just on one political party and its presidential candidate but the rights of every American. That’s all true, but irrelevant. The reasons the press won’t cover the story are suggested in the Graham-Grassley letter itself. The letter details how Christopher Steele, the former British spy who allegedly authored the documents claiming ties between the Trump campaign and Russia, told the FBI he wasn’t talking to the press about his investigation. In a British court, however, Steele acknowledged briefing several media organizations on the material in his dossier. According to the British court documents, Steele briefed the New York Times, Washington Post, Yahoo! News, The New Yorker, and CNN. In October, he talked to Mother Jones reporter David Corn by Skype. It was Corn’s October 31 article anonymously sourced to Steele that alerted the FBI their informant was speaking to the press. Grassley and Graham referred Steele to the Department of Justice for a criminal investigation because he lied to the FBI.

B-Man Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 If you're curious why "fake news" charges from Trump resonate with so many people, it's because there's more than a grain of truth to it often enough to spoil the batch. Actual Daily News Cover today ....Sometimes media cynicism can be so breathtaking that it becomes affirmative malice. Anything to sell newspapers, I guess. Cruz was in JROTC, not "trained by the NRA." What this shameless clickbait headline doesn’t mention is the NRA donation went to the U.S. Army’s JROTC program — and what this article doesn’t mention is, during the the shooting, young JROTC members used the JROTC’s Kevlar sheets to shield a group of ~60 students from gunfire. It’s actually amazing something like this even gets printed. If this is what media is doing to make an NRA connection then you know it’s desperation. JROTC kids actually put themselves in harms way to help students & our media goes out and slimes them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 See this young man, according to the Left's warped thinking, he too was "Trained by the NRA" He gave his life to help his friends. Cruz was in JROTC before his expulsion, the NRA funds were for JROTC................you do want gun owners trained in safety don't you ? Our media are scum sucking, biased, leftist whores..............and they deserve the contempt that they are shown. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/local/broward/parkland/florida-school-shooting/fl-florida-school-shooting-peter-wang-obit-20180215-story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 It's very intersting that I have turned on TV twice today and then looked at the news the last few days only to see coverage going back to covering how Trump treats women and his attack on women. 60 minutes just did a round table discussion of a group where they talked about how they discuss politics calmly over facebook - with oprah moderating. the entire thing focused on how men won't condemn the presidents treatment of women. i'm having a feeling like the media will now just bang the drum that trump is mean to women since they're running out of things to hammer him on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 CNN schedules town hall to feature survivors of Parkland school shooting Gee, I wonder how that will go................. You might have noticed that CNN has been going big on town halls recently. The network has hosted a few on tax reform and Obamacare, though they always seem to feature Bernie Sanders standing in for Democrats — maybe they’re afraid to come on the network. This coming Wednesday, CNN will host a town hall featuring classmates and parents of the victims of the Feb. 14 mass shooting at a high school in Parkland, Fla. “Stand Up: The Students of Stoneman Douglas Demand Action” will air Feb. 21 at 9 p.m. Can you imagine CNN having a town hall for families who have lost loved ones at the hands of illegal immigrants. Yeah I can't either. Always about the agenda, never about the truth. REMINDER: CNN’s long history of allowing Democratic town-hall plants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Media haranguing people about what they can have, what they should do, how they should feel has reached such absurd levels.
