nobody can trust the press, they will turn on everyone in the drop of a hat for a good scoop helping form the next narrative

NYU Cancels Former New Yorker Fact-Checker Talia Lavin’s Journalism Class.

 

The “fact-checker” description in the headline is a nice touch, as the subhead notes that “Lavin left The New Yorker last year after falsely saying an ICE agent had a Nazi tattoo.”

 

The article goes on to note that NYU cancelled the class “Lavin was scheduled to teach this fall after only two students signed up.”

Are media journalists aware of what's happening to the media industry?

 

nah, the coyote with the biggest chunk of meat sits in his den and couldn't care less about anything happening more than 2 square feet around him

This is being reported by Fox News?  I'm thrilled with the news while being furious at being manipulated by hatemongers and realize as I contemplate the accuracy of the reports and that this is yet another sign in the march towards fascism. If not Maddow or Lemon, exactly who(m)  is going to report that Trump rejects an orderly transition of power by seizing control of the military when President-Mayor Pete is elected in 2020??

This is literally the definition of white privilege.

 

But cool guys, go get that black day laborer who made a video you guys don’t like @NoahShachtman

A guy made a Facebook video they didn’t like so they post an old mugshot, list his criminal history & smear him as a misogynist,

and then these people wonder “gosh why won’t people listen to us or trust us.” A private citizen who committed no crime.

 

They tried for a week to get Facebook to take it down. Failed, and decided the next best thing would be to harass him and make an example out of him.

Because it is not about discovery...............it's about punishment..............that's the Leftist way.

 

 

The myth here is that the video sparked a debate. It didn’t.

Literally nobody cared outside of the press, who dutifully elevated it in order to generate fake outrage.

 

It was 100% “see what happens when you screw with us” smear hit.

So you’re saying there’s another side to the story? But he’s guilty - right? I mean they said so on the Internet. :unsure:

 

He is guilty until he can prove his innocence. It's the liberal way.

So apparently slicked-back hair is a topic worthy of conversation. 

The responses to this tweet are bat ***** crazy. :wacko: It has all of the usual wack-jobs favorite topics: religion, President Trump, and Trump's hair.  The insanity is strong in the TDSers.

The US press largely ignore her. Contrast that to how they treated Jackie Kennedy. 

 

they were desperate to get TV involved in their view of high culture

 

they got their wish totally for JFK's assassination

 

amazing how on Mad Men Don Draper really didn't care all that much about sitting there hypnotized by TV over the Cuban Missile Crisis or the events of JFK and such.

Awwww.

 

and here I was thinking that he had done it on purpose.........................silly me, listening to the media...........?

 

 

 

"COMB ON OVER Donald Trump sports slick new ‘hat hair’ before flying to meet the Queen." 

 

But Trump's hair has nothing to do with the Queen. It has to do with wearing a hat — he'd been golfing — and then finding himself in a situation where he had to take off the hat. You can get this info just from reading The Sun: "Trump had come straight from a game of golf and had only just taken off his baseball cap when he got in front of the cameras at a Virginia church." The Sun goes on to survey social media, where the most common joke seems to be about how, unlike usually, he looks "normal."

What Trump was doing — apparently spontaneously, without taking time to do his hair — was attending a church memorial service for the victims of the Virginia Beach shootings:

Where are the Libertarians at?? 

 

The President is using his megaphone to try and silence the media. He's calling on his cult to boycott AT&T. That could cost a lot of working class people their jobs. Horrible!
