The Media

“And everything that happens will be shaped by the calliope of craziness that is the right-wing media.”

I though that was an interesting statement and it made me think about how much the media spins the stories to favor the Left.

I thought the Washington Post was a legitimate newspaper.

But then I also thought that about the New York Times.

And the Hill

And USAToday.

With CNN at the helm of untruthful opinions.

Here’s a truthful opinion.

My own post has been dismissed because it was an “opinion.” I never noticed how many opinion pieces were posted in the past by Reg and never questioned. I guess if the media and Reg can get away with it, why not. I suppose I’ll have to pay closer attention to what is posted in the future if it irritates me that bad.

Do you understand the difference between a clearly labelled opinion piece and a news story.

Yes, we spell it labelled in Canada.

Throughout its history, The Washington Times has been known for its conservative political stance.[6][7][8][9] It has drawn controversy for publishing racist content, including commentary and conspiracy theories about United States president Barack Obama[10][11] and support for neo-Confederatism.[12] It has published material promoting Islamophobia.[13] It has published many columns which reject the scientific consensus on climate change,[14][15][16] as well as on ozone depletion[17] and on the harmful effects of second-hand smoke.[18][19]

That figures.

Or better yet, pay closer attention to who you get your information from.

This made me chuckle. The West’s take on WW2 is one of the most politicized things on the planet.

Would you say a more liberal approach?

Just a different one. In Russia, you have a lot of freedom but don’t criticize Putin or your life will be destroyed. In the west, you have a lot of freedom but don’t criticize gays or Jews or suggest the races are not equal or your life will be destroyed. In the west, you are free to say bad things about your leaders. In Russia, you’re free to say bad things about gays and Jews and suggest that some races are different. Pick your poison.

only if you criticize and make your suggestions by shooting a gun, otherwise its all in your head, reg;)

I wonder if you are really that blind and deluded. Actually never mind. I believe it.

I have an idea. How about we practice critical distancing.

well done, most of the time the answer is indeed already known to you;)

“The clip NBC played showed CBS reporter Catherine Herridge asking Barr how history might view his efforts to dismiss charges against Flynn.”

“‘Well, history’s written by the winners. So it largely depends on who’s writing the history,’ Barr replied.”

“Todd then added he was struck by ‘the cynicism of the answer. It’s a correct answer. But he’s the attorney general. He didn’t make the case that he was upholding the rule of law,’ Todd reacted. ‘He was almost admitting that, yeah, this is a political job.’”

“However in an extended clip, shown in full by CBS News, Barr is seen responding with further justification of his actions: ‘Well, history is written by the winners. So it largely depends on who’s writing the history. But I think a fair history would say that it was a good decision because it upheld the rule of law. It helped, it upheld the standards of the Department of Justice, and it undid what was an injustice.’”

This is the corruption our media spins out, all day every day. Poor, poor MSM. They consistently bury the truth with their own redacted version of current events and then lie to cover their tracks.

sounds familiar, maybe they thought it was irrelevant:

Maybe your comment is irrelevant.

yes am sure it is to some

Seriously, CNN? Greta is now a coronavirus expert?

“During any crisis it is always the most vulnerable people who are hit the hardest, and that is children,” she said.

Actually, Greta, children are largely unaffected by this disease. Btw, you are quite irritating.
