Cmon Finding. Tell everyone how transparency around how legacy media puts out marching orders to its employees is bad.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nexstar

@NXSTMediaGroup which has 200 owned or partner stations in 116 U.S. markets reaching 220 million people.

 

Yes, the largest news broadcasting company in the country wanted to downplay Trump’s assassination

 

 

Too bad we have to ignore this news because it came from DC Draino.

This is where we are. A reminder to “stick to the facts” is now biased.

Yeah, in reading that memo, it doesn't reek of anything other than "we don't know much so don't speculate or editorialize".

Dude give it up.   Maybe sticking to the facts actually works for local news syndicate stations.  But every major publication and network is just a pure gaslighting and propaganda machine.  

 

Did the MSM stick to the facts during the Jussie Smollett hate crime incident?  The Bubba Wallace incident?   Or pretty much any out of context remark from Donald Trump over the last 8 years?

Don't forget Politico running the 51 former IC members say Hunter's laptop is Russian disinformation 

 

Just the facts Jack!

 

So very factual that every other msm news outlet not only ran with the Politico factual reporting, but censored any reporting to the contrary.

 

They stuck to the facts with such religious zeal that the story remains up on their website, unaltered to this very day.

 

Reliable.

Here we go. Note in the WSJ video many of the false claims/videos were posted right here by some of our frenetic posters.

MSM wins again. But let's all go with DC Draino instead. Why wait to confirm facts when you can report stupid unverified hot takes?

Yes, because the MSM had all of the facts right after the shooting saying that Trump "fell down because of loud noises" and that he was struck by glass.  Man, you really are reaching.

It's called reporting.

Reporter in the crowd observes. Reports something like popping noises, President down. Later reports President's ear bloodied. Later reports Secret Service says he was shot. Later reports on his condition and identity (once disclosed) of the shooter. Then tries to gather information on the shooter.

I know it's not inst-news, but look at the video. People here posted the long haired weirdo as the shooter. People here posted the ASU student ranting about liberals as a video of the shooter. Both were flat-out wrong. What is gained by posting these hot takes other than fueling the conspiracy/outrage machine?

That's my point.  You can't have it both ways.  You can't criticize people (not even media credentialed personnel) and give the media a pass.
