Good grief. What a sad thread. "This country is gone, killed by Democrats" is somehow seen here as more truthful than what we see in the media.

 

The media does indeed have problems and make mistakes. It shouldn't be trusted 100%, anymore than any human system out there. But yeah, it's the most trustworthy way out there to see what's happening. It's like the old quote about democracy, "Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others." Yup. On target. And the media is the worst system of getting information about what's happening in the world, except for all the others.

 

But many will insist that what they get from their feed on facebook is better.

The msm deliberately lied to use. Is that ok with you?

Where you and I will disagree is that the MSM is not concerned with factual accuracy. They (CNN, ABC, WAPO, NYT) are more concerned with narrative. WAPO still writes that 1.75 trillion is more than 1.9 trillion and calls anyone who points out the absurdity of the claim a conspiracy theorist or a liar. You are completely correct that no source is 100%, or IMO even 75%, trustworthy but the lack of even trying to be accurate is absurd

REPUBLICANS POUNCE! NBC Whines GOP ‘Seized’ on ‘Optical Comparison’ Between Kabul/Saigon Airlifts.

 

 

Just think of the media as Democratic Party operatives with Chyrons desperately trying to do damage control for the Biden administration, and it all makes sense:

“Witless Western feminists will continue to don hijabs in solidarity with alleged victims of ‘Islamophobia,’ while the real women of Afghanistan suffer if they dare to venture out without a hijab.”

 

Which brings us to this “unexpected” juxtaposition of CNN’s Ward:

Media keeps parading around the NIH director because he says migrant crossings aren’t much of an issue re: covid….. as McAllen, Texas reports 80% of their hospitalized covid patients are migrants and CBP reports 25% of families coming across test positive.  
 

….and they wonder why we don’t trust anything we’re told.

To your ignorant mind, yes. But then again, you are ignorant, so who cares what you think.
