The American Media Should Not Be Trusted


Recommended Posts

Putin clamps down on media.  No American media for him or Russia, This is exactly the same sentiment we hear here from the right 

 

Updated May 18, 2022

Russia clamped down harder Friday on news and free speech than at any time in President Vladimir V. Putin’s 22 years in power, blocking access to Facebook and major foreign news outlets, and enacting a law to punish anyone spreading “false information” about its Ukraine invasion with up to 15 years in prison.

Look, this is very simple.

 

If you point out one of the obvious biases or inconsistencies in our media, that means that you are an "agent of Putin"

 

it is a very convenient narrative that means you don't have to think or reason,  which of course, is why Tiberius. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Look, one side lies all the time and blames the media. It's really that simple. Putin lies all the time, just like Trump, and he shut down the media. 

 

It's that simple B-Man 

Or….it could be that the MSM is actually lying.

So it's all a conspiracy between media companies? 

 

Loony 

Conspiracy? No. Media companies filled with liberals….yes. There’s no debate on that. Not sure why you’re even trying. It’s certainly not illegal, but they’re not fooling ANYONE anymore. They pushed their agenda way too far. Unforced error.

"Racist!" is being replaced by "agent of Putin!"  It's hilarious.

These tags and labels are meant to silence anyone dissenting with the establishment narrative all without requiring any logical defense of it.  You disagree you're an enemy of freedom and democracy.  You disagree you're sympathizing with the enemy.  You disagree, you're not a patriot, you're a dangerous extremist. 

 

You're not allowed to criticize the government or any authority or offer any alternative views to what they're peddling.  Just listen and obey.  No matter how destructive or dangerous their agenda and actions might be to the country.  Or what lies and falsehoods they tell.

 

These modern liberals are posers. They traditionally claimed to fight for the little guy against the establishment and now they are the establishment.  Name one official policy or initiative the self-proclaimed liberals on this board oppose.  None.  They're phonies too.  In reality they're authoritarians and much closer to fascists then their simple minds can comprehend.

Before Trump broke the left and brought forth clown world Fetterman would have been out of the race long ago. Even the biased, but still relatively sane media of a decade ago would have questioned his ability to run and serve.

 

But this is 2022. This is clown world.

Seems like something out of Putin’s Russia. Sad. 

 

I saw that on the news, and I have not even been watching the news much. More BS? Some idiot saying the media isn't covering? 

 

Reminds me of the dolt that called into this radio show:

The midterms are "the gravest threat" since the Civil War

 

Fresh off his CNN appearance, presidential historian Jon Meacham took his shoehorned Abraham Lincoln analogies to MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell Reports on Friday to warn “this is the gravest test of citizenship since the Civil War.” Therefore, just like Lincoln fought slavery, voters must vote Democrat to save democracy.

I find all of these pundits to be full of themselves. They’ve turned politics into a sporting event. The vast vast majority of Americans couldn’t care less about the midterms and have no idea who’s running. It’s no different than the World Series, that started last night. I’m guessing the vast majority of Americans can’t tell you who’s playing in this years Series and couldn’t care less.

Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was attacked by a man with a hammer at the couple’s home in San Francisco early Friday morning.

 

CNN has strung a series of reports on the attack here. CNN’s first report of the assault was posted at 11:08 a.m. on October 28. By 2:25 p.m. Gavin Newsom had attributed the attack to “divisive and hateful rhetoric.” By 7:25 p.m. President Biden had observed that assaulter’s query — “Where’s Nancy?” — was the same one used during the Jan. 6 insurrection at the US Capitol.

 

Defamation dies in darkness. The Washington Post therefore assigned three reporters to the case. By 7:00 a.m. on October 29 the Post had nailed it down: “Attack on Nancy Pelosi’s husband follows years of GOP demonizing her.” The subhead was equally unsubtle: “A man with right-wing views who broke into the House speaker’s home yelled ‘Where is Nancy?’ before assaulting Paul Pelosi with a hammer, police say.” The Post must have capitalized “Where is Nancy” to indicate it’s part of the right-wing code.
