The American Media Should Not Be Trusted

This is absolutely pathetic. 

 

 

 

Yikes…I rarely click on that sort of thing but that ten minutes shows exactly what’s wrong with today’s Left. It should be required viewing for everyone. The interviewer is a smug, privileged, un- self aware, pampered clown. And that guy worked for The NY Times? I say it again….yikes.

HOW LOW CAN NPR GO?

 

Details about the assassination of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe are still sketchy, but one thing that isn’t sketchy at all is how despicable NPR has shown itself to be with this tweet:

 

NPR-Abe-1.png?resize=600,146&ssl=1

 

Contrast this with the left media’s headlines for the passing of Castro (he “defied America,” so you can see why NPR loved him), or the Washington Post‘s headline description of Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani as an “austere religious scholar.”

 

NPR deleted the tweet, but that someone could think this was an appropriate tweet for a “new organization” tells you all you need to know about NPR’s “news judgment.” I thank NPR for providing a textbook example for Power Line’s Lexicon of Leftist Terms—”divisive” means “any politician that the staff of NPR doesn’t like or agree with.”

P.S. Abe was so “divisive” that he was one of the longest-serving prime ministers in post-war Japan. I guess the Japanese electorate must be deeply divided. Unlike NPR’s noxious newsroom.

That's rich.  Telling the other people they believe in conspiracy theories, dark plots and secret explanations.  The only thing good to come out of Joke becoming President is to prove how wrong they all were.  Too bad the bad far far outweighs that.

The newspaper of record.

 

:lol:

 

 

I’ve stayed out the Ray Epps narrative but watching that guy, he clearly sticks out like a sore thumb. There’s zero chance he wasn’t a plant. He comes off like a narco officer that walks the halls of your local high school pretending to be a student. And judging from the crowd’s reaction, ALL of them know he’s not a student. (I’m guessing he bought the hat in a corner gift shop.)

I agree.  To say (knowing he's on video that will be made public) "I don't care if I go to jail..." tells you he knows he's immune to anything bad happening.

The NYT, the newspaper of record, lie?  Never! :lol:

 

He was taped prior to J6 urging people to go INTO the Capitol. That is a crime.

 

Urging people to merely go TO the Capitol is not.

 

How could the "newspaper of record" miss that crucial distinction?

 

^_^

“…as I’m currently doing it…” is the key phrase here.  Some people have a healthy skepticism for the information she’s presenting because of how she presents it.  She probably should toughen up a bit. 
 

I recall Trump being on the Today Show well before the 2016 election.  Savannah  Guthrie set up a question about his chances by asking him about a poll that showed him struggling, and Trump replied that an NBC poll just released showed him doing very well at that point.  He suggested that sort of thing was exactly why people didn’t trust the media.  She appeared quite flustered at the time. 
 

It was great television and just a quick sampling of what was to come.

She covers Congress for Reuters.  

 

A sparse crowd of mostly older people are carrying US flags and she tweets that THIS has triggered her anxiety?

 

Gee, I wonder why nobody except the left trusts anything coming from legacy media.

 

Missed your post above @B-Man. So ridiculous however it deserves repeating.

Forget Fake News, News Blackouts Are More Dangerous

Issues & Insights, by Armando Simón

 

Much has been written and said by some writers, politicians, and journalists about “fake news,” that is, news reports that have been deliberately distorted or are outright lies done for the sake of a particular ideology. Ever since Donald Trump announced his candidacy, I have collected hundreds and hundreds of instances of fake news in print, television, and the internet. But almost nothing has been said or written about “news blackout,” that is, the deliberate, coordinated effort to exclude certain news events, or opinions, that contradict the journalist hivemind ideology.
