Really?  You couldn't just go with "PMSNBC?"  You're an idiot.

 

I needed to do a longer version.

I always wondered why NBC was on the Trump hate train.

 

Didn’t The Apprentice garner very good ratings for them?

 

NBC is the reason that America thought that a second rate real estate developer (but a marketing maven) was a true business mogul.   Now thy're trying to distance themselves from the fact that they gave him his biggest platform and are probably most responsible for his ascendancy to Presidency.

Buzzfeed’s debacle is a warning to Mueller that he needs to wrap up his probe without delay. No presidency — no, not even Trump’s — deserves to have this cloud hanging over it, with precipitation falling daily in the form of false news stories.

Brian Stelter’s reaction to the BuzzFeed debacle: “We need to keep reinforcing to the audience how much smoke there is.” (1:38) That, ladies & gentlemen, is what’s wrong with press coverage on too many issues. Instead of waiting for facts and truth, “smoke” is good enough.

How many times does major "RUSSIA SCANDAL" news have to be substantially modified, corrected, retracted, or outright falsified until the media exercises even a modicum of skepticism?

 

Instead they just scream BOOM! together like a bunch of toddlers.............................. Incorrigible hacks

Media consumers aren’t as savvy as we’d like them to be, and just because something is technically accurate and qualified doesn’t make it good. People skip right over those caveats, and if they want to believe these reports, they treat them like gospel.

“if they want to believe these reports, they treat them like gospel.”

 

Pretty incredible thing to say after your entire industry ran with “if true” and indulged in impeachment grandeur for an entire day without confirmation. Maybe the consumer isn’t the problem here.

 

The meme and fake news conspiracy explosion on Facebook social media is a direct result of media losing their own credibility. People said ***** it and went elsewhere. Instead of looking inward (even now), they attack the audience they lost. It’s breathtaking.

All Three Networks Ignore ‘March For Life,’ Cover Pro-Abortion ‘Women’s March’ Instead
 by Paul Bois

 

Original Article

 

On its 46th anniversary, all three major networks (ABC, NBC, and CBS) ignored the March for Life in Washington, D.C., the largest pro-life event in the nation, opting instead to cover the feminist Women´s March rally. According to LifeNews, despite an estimated 100,000 people being in attendance at the pro-life march along with President Trump´s address to the crowd via video, the left-wing machines could not so much as "give a passing mention to the March for Life" during the Friday morning shows.

I'd say that media consumers are exactly as savvy as the media wants them to be.

 

Otherwise, the media would stop trying to use clickbait headlines and run with stories that are actually true.

Once again, the concern is how this will be used against the media — not how a major outlet could screw up this badly and how to prevent it again.

 

Because again, they’re upset BuzzFeed got caught — not that they were misled by shoddy reporters doing crap work.

 

 

 

Reminder:

And this is why it's a ridiculous idea to allow networks to cite these "fact-checks" during debates and speeches.

 

The quote cited here is clearly true.

 

Dems have absolutely shifted their views on the effectiveness and morality of barriers at the border.

.@realDonaldTrump has claimed that Democrats repeatedly supported physical barriers, but changed their minds only after he was elected president. That's Mostly False. https://bit.ly/2RLZfxH

MEDIA IN VARIOUS STAGES OF GRIEF OVER COLLAPSE OF BUZZFEED TRUMP/COHEN STORY:

Rachel Maddow, and MSNBC generally, is in the bargaining phase. BUT HE’S STILL A BAD MAN! Don’t stop trying to impeach him just because Buzzfeed may have screwed up, and anyway, maybe Buzzfeed’s report is false but accurate! RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA!

 

It took Maddow 10 minutes to conclude “Happy Two Years of the Trump Administration” before turning to Ben Smith, who defended the story.

 

See what she did there? Mueller’s rebuke of Buzzfeed becomes an afterthought.

 

And former and current Democratic activist Chuck Todd isn’t taking it too well, either. Fortunately, Mollie Hemmingway is pushing back:

 

mollie_hemmingway_chuck_todd_1-20-19-1-8

 

 

To be fair, NBC has a lot invested in BuzzFeed, literally and figuratively: Flashback to 2015: NBCUniversal makes $200-million investment in BuzzFeed.

 

 

 

 

 

If you want proof the media learned absolutely nothing from Buzzfeed episode, watch how they handle the Covington HS story.

They will believe anything, regurgitate any unproven or sketchy narrative, to ridicule Trump and his supporters.

This includes helping to destroy children.
