They say it was done to avoid "moralistic mobs." But a simpler explanation is they realize that they don't see what was wrong with that cartoon, so they expect to run ones in the future that will get them into the same hot water. So, rather than accidentally out themselves as anti-semitic D-bags might as well not run any cartoons at all. (Better to remain silent and be though a fool rather than to speak and remove all doubt.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbb Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 4 hours ago, B-Man said: FEEL GOOD STORY OF THE DAY Top Progressive ThinkProgress Site Bleeding Cash and People ThinkProgress, the website that is a project of the Democratic Party’s primary think tank, is facing dire financial troubles and bleeding staff, according to primary-source documents viewed by The Daily Beast. A budget document provided to ThinkProgress management and obtained by The Daily Beast showed that the website was expecting a roughly $3 million gulf between revenue and expenses for 2019. ThinkProgress has never been a revenue generator, and has often made up for its deficits through fundraising efforts and funds from its mothership entity, the Center for American Progress (CAP). But the current outlook is significantly worse than ever before. . . In the face of these falling revenue streams, ThinkProgress has seen payroll drop by 12 percent from its peak level in 2019 and “salary growth” by 5 percent, according to the document. . . The numbers paint a grim picture for one of the better-known, unapologetically progressive media platforms. And it has been exacerbated by what a source described as a failure of leadership at CAP to provide answers about “the short- and long-term future of the site.” The site seemed poised for a boom during the Trump years, when content for a liberal-minded outlet appeared bountiful. Instead, the road has been rocky. . . I dunno, maybe part of the problem is that fewer people are reading what they’re offering? I’m sure President Sanders or President Warren will come through with subsidies. P.S. This tidbit in the story is curious: When a number of fairly large donations came into CAP following the 2016 election, ThinkProgress staffed up, ballooning its ranks to 40 people at one point, a source familiar with internal operations said. But those were one-time donations and as traffic declined—in part, several sources say, because of changes to Facebook’s algorithm—and revenue fell, there was not enough money to sustain the higher payroll. . I wish that the people who are Occupy Democrats were literally bleeding. Whoever comes up with their unfunny and always factually wrong memes deserve as much pain as possible for showing up on Facebook feed with their nonsense...............I guess it serves a purpose of letting me know what Facebook "friends" have no discernible brain.

B-Man Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) WHY DECENT PEOPLE HATE THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA, CHAPTER 11,786 Sad news yesterday of the passing, at age 79, of the distinguished economist Martin Feldstein. Feldstein, a long-time fixture at Harvard, served as chair of President Reagan’s Council of Economic Advisers in the 1980s, and headed the prestigious National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER). Feldstein was a winner of the prestigious John Bates Clark medal, and the adviser/mentor to one of the hottest young (liberal) economists on the scene today, Raj Chetty. So how does the Washington Post choose to headline his passing? Seriously—that’s what you lead with WaPo? No wonder decent people hate you. Media Slams Trump Admin For Housing Child Illegals At Former Japanese Internment Camp Which Obama Also Used To House Illegals The “former Japanese internment camp” in this case is Fort Sill in Oklahoma, which has also housed the U.S. military for 150 years. But “Trump administration to house child illegals at military post” doesn’t have the same ring to it, does it? And “Trump administration to house child illegals at same facility used by Obama administration” is downright ring-less. The children aren’t being housed indefinitely either, do note, as internees were. They’re there temporarily while DHS looks for relatives to hand them off to. So why does the fort’s past as an internment camp figure so prominently in so many different media reports on this development? (Rhetorical) Alex Griswold compiled a list of some of the outlets advertising this news with references to internment in the headline. There’s Time, which I excerpted, plus USA Today, The Hill, HuffPost, the Daily Beast, Fast Company How unusual is it for the media to revisit Fort Sill’s past as an internment camp for Japanese-Americans? Griswold ran the numbers: Per Lexis Nexis, there have been tens of thousands of mentions of “Fort Sill” in English language news sources in the past few decades, literally too many for the service to count. Exactly six mentioned both “Fort Still” and “Japanese internment,” and all six stories were aboutJapanese internment. That Japanese internment is a defining moment in Fort Sill’s history, warranting prominent mention in stories even having nothing to do with Japanese internment, appears to be a notion born sometime in the past 24 hours, evidently by a reporter with an agenda, a deadline, and access to Wikipedia. The Obama administration used Fort Sill from June to early August in 2014 to house unaccompanied child illegals during the border crisis of that year. Here’s a story from a local TV affiliate in Oklahoma at the time marking the transfer of all children from the base and closure of the facility. Jeryl Bier has been tracking this story on Twitter for the last several hours and, try as he might, can’t find any references to the base’s past as an internment camp when Obama chose to turn it into a temporary detention facility: More at the link: https://hotair.com/archives/2019/06/12/media-slams-trump-admin-housing-child-illegals-former-japanese-internment-camp-obama-also-used-house-illegals/ Media today are just an arm of the Democrat Party. .

B-Man Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 HOW GREG GUTFELD’S SUCCESS EXPOSES THE MEDIA’S CULTURAL BLINDSPOTS: As Variety noted in May, “Year to date, Fox News’ ‘Gutfeld’ has secured a bigger average viewership – more than 1.73 million – than any of TV’s late-night offerings except CBS’ ‘Late Show’ and NBC’s ‘Tonight Show.’” A Washington Examiner analysis of Nielson data for the year compared Gutfeld’s average audience on Fox News to his competitors’, and the results were illuminating: Gutfeld’s show, which airs on Saturdays at 10 p.m. EST, has an average of 1.7 million viewers. Meaning his show averages more viewers than: -HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” (1.5 million viewers) -NBC’s “Late Night with Seth Meyers” (1.2 million viewers) -CBS’ “Late Late Show with James Corden” (1.2 million viewers) -HBO’s “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” (1 million viewers) -TBS’ “Full Frontal with Samantha Bee” (835,000 viewers) -Comedy Central’s “Daily Show” (732,000 viewers) The difference between Gutfeld’s show and the programs eating his dust is a steady drumbeat of media coverage inflating their cultural influence. Outlets regularly pluck clips from every late-night show trailing Gutfeld’s while virtually ignoring him, despite the gaps in viewership. It’s a smaller-scale version of the Mad Men effect, as spotted by veteran media critic Richard Rushfield in 2011: “Mad Men at its height was watched by 2.9 million viewers. In contrast, CBS’ military police procedural drama NCIS last week was seen by 19.7 million viewers. As far as I can tell, NCIS has never been featured on the cover of any major American magazine apart from TV Guide and one issue of Inland Empire, they still operate under the frayed pretence that they are covering the ‘news’ of culture, giving their readers a report on what the most important developments of the day in the entertainment world. By that standard, the ‘flood the zone’ coverage of Mad Men is completely unjustified in comparison to the information blackout on NCIS.” . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 A Tsunami of Hypocrisy by Kurt Schlichter Original Article The greatest thing about Donald Trump is how his election has caused our enemies to reveal exactly what kind of seedy, corrupt weasels they truly are. My apologies to weasels – those creatures don’t deserve to be associated with the shoddy assembly of race hustlers, graft grabbers, liberal liars, garbage media scribblers and submissive Fredocon lackies who make up our grotesque liberal elite. Our enemies despise us, and look down upon us from what they assume we’ll consider the moral high ground, judging and berating us for the literal and figurative crimes they themselves commit.
