Seriously...what the ***** hell?  How completely off the rails do you have to be to hear someone say Trump is worse than the three worst mass murders of the 20th century COMBINED, and think "Yeah, that makes sense.  Let's put him on the air?"

He's claiming he had "audio" problems......................sure

 

Stelter, who offered no pushback to Frances’ statement during the interview, says he was distracted by technical difficulties.

I agree that I should have interrupted after that line. I wish I had heard him say it, but I was distracted by tech difficulties (that's why the show open didn't look the way it normally does, I had two computers at the table, etc). Not hearing the comment is my fault.

the NYT refused to report on the deeds of the 3 for many many years past decency levels of pretending nothing was happening

 

they are right on top of making things up on Trump from the get-go

 

so yeah, he is worse according to the NYT

 

makes perfect sense to them.

 Buck Sexton explains what’s ‘truly fascinating’ about journos triggered by Trump allies digging into their old tweets

 

An article in the New York Times over the weekend was basically a meltdown about the news of Trump allies working to dig up embarrassing tweets from NYT, WaPo and CNN personnel (and others). The Times and other journos obviously don’t like being threatened with a taste of their own medicine:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

JOURNALISTS ARE HAVING A MELTDOWN OVER JOURNALISM BEING DONE TO THEM:

The New York Times publisher A. G. Sulzberger said in a statement to the paper of record’s staff that such tactics were taking the president’s campaign against a free press to a new level.

 

“The goal of this campaign is clearly to intimidate journalists from doing their job, which includes serving as a check on power and exposing wrongdoing when it occurs. The Times will not be intimidated or silenced.”

 

Sulzberger’s concern over the intimidation of journalists fails to address and even excuses the racist and antisemitic views of his own staff, but also fails to acknowledge the mainstream media’s aggressive history of intimidating private individuals because they support the president or hold conservative political views.

 

Last February, a CNN crew showed up on an elderly woman’s lawn in Florida to publicly shame her for unknowingly sharing a “Russian-coordinated event” on her Facebook page. Consequently, the woman received waves of violent threats, abuse, and harassment online.

In June, the Daily Beast reporter Kevin Poulsen doxxed a black forklift operator from New York who doctored a video of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

 

National media outlets have harassed countless other private individuals who support the president on social media or create memes. Yet publications such as the New York Times become outraged when conservatives point out that their own employees spew virulent, racist, and antisemitic views on social media — and remain employed.

 

Other conservatives on Twitter noted the hypocrisy.

 

 

Ace of Spades tried to warn the MSM in November of 2016, a week after Trump won, that the backlash was coming.

“You dominate this culture. You made the rules. You now get to live in the savage world you made brick-by-brick, media…

The media loves to ride the tiger of Mob Hatred when that tiger is devouring a plebeian. 

Well, sometimes the tiger bucks, old chaps.”

 

 

 

 

This game is dangerous, but the media started it.

 

They don’t get to whine about it.

 

They’re in “positions of power.”

Again, the obvious question is "Why wasn't the media criticizing Obama and Clinton for hammering Fox News during his reign?".  Why was that an acceptable political model, why did news organizations enable and frequently participate in the trashing of that organization?

It’s pretty much an open secret that most of the MSM leans liberal. But geez. You’d think CNN could try just a little harder to keep the mask from slipping:

Most reporters and Democratic pundits are backing Elizabeth Warren.

There is no other explanation why CNN would run a segment about DC Democrat announcing his decision on Twitter to support Warren

Who is "Danny Barefoot" that his endorsement is so important that it warrants a CNN segment?

Danny Barefoot is supporting Warren? THE Danny Barefoot? The race is pretty much over now.

Sesame Street is the contextual construct for MSNBC. It’s a fantastical setting populated by script-reading characters that are caricatures of every leftist wet dream who bray, heckle, harangue, and grouse constantly pushing their daily talking points on a numbed audience of snot-nosed mouth breathers who gladly absorb the daily lessons. 

 

Today’s word is...

(on Monday) RESIST

(on Tuesday) IMPEACH

(on Wednesday) RUSSIA

(on Thursday) TRAITOR

(on Friday) TRUMP-TOWER

(on Saturday) COLLUSION 

(on Sunday) OBSTRUCTION
