Having To Do With The Mainstream Media 3

This item expands on the previous one. What does free speech mean anyway?  Quote: "America cannot  have an intelligent conversation about anything because no one agrees on the basic meaning of words.  People will keep talking in circles as long as the media convinces them that they can simultaneously believe two contradictory ideas. An environment now exists where people will just say and believe whatever they think will get them in the least trouble with social enforcers all around them. No one will grow intellectually when the media tells them to use their emotions to decide on issues. How can you make informed decisions when you can’t even comprehend an argument? And that is double-plus ungood."     https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/10/16/free-speech-and-the-idiocy-of-too-many-americans/   It is getting to the point where the media, and I will add public and higher education, are making words, life, liberty, informed discussion and intellectual pursuits completely meaningless.

Now some number of the members of the media are embroiled in the Hillary Uranium One scandal with apparent Fusion GPL paying liberal journalists to work in their behalf.  No one can trust the left wing media to report the truth.  They may in fact be a large part of the corrupt swamp that needs to be drained.  Quote: "According to a Washington Times report: “Analyzing the networks’ spin makes it clear that the goal of all of this heavy coverage is not to promote the President, but to punish him,” the analysts said. From this base of the issue, the problem has moved one step further, with reports of journalists getting paid to push certain stories, from firms with deep ties to the press such as Fusion GPS. That's the "opposition research" firm which took big dollars from the Democratic Party, compiled a phony dossier about Donald Trump, and then sold it to the press, using the news hook that then-FBI Director James Comey had viewed the dossier to get reporters to report it. Now, it comes to light from the House Intelligence Committee that they maybe even paying off reporters."     http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/11/with_reports_of_journalists_taking_cash_from_fusion_gps_is_it_any_wonder_the_media_isnt_trusted.html    Here's more.   https://conservativetribune.com/fusion-gps-partner-testify/?

The New York Times has sunk to a new low.  It carries a piece suggesting a coup of the Trump administration.  That is not news. It instead is inciting violence.  The political left is completely unhinged and treasonous.    http://patrioticviralnews.com/articles/new-york-times-calls-for-antifa-revolution-to-oust-trump/   More NYT sinking.  This is totally rediculous.   http://americanactionnews.com/articles/the-new-york-times-liberal-bias-just-got-way-worse

What is it about the left that causes so many of them to be so disrespectful and abusive?    http://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2017/11/08/elite-media-scandal-expands-npr-chief-accused-covering-harassment-complaints/

Leftist corruption spans across the globe and has seriously infected so much of our country.  You know about the multiple scandals plaguing the Democrat party.  One has to do with Hillary's collusion with Fusion GPS regarding the Uranium One scandal.  Well it looks like leftist journalists were on the take, too.   

The left-stream media illustrates its total ineptitude and gross bias in most everything.  They challenge hard facts in their abject ignorance.  It is almost humorous how inept and predictably lame their efforts are.  Quote: "Predictably, the mainstream media has been engaging in its usual name calling, blame-placing, and making of unfounded accusations, with CNN still carrying on with its unfounded Russian narrative. The morning talk circuit is a roundtable of how Trump is a sexist and probably has bad table manners. The Washington Post continues to throw everything at the White House that it thinks might appear to stick to the average reader."    http://www.conservativezone.com/articles/sarah-huckabee-sanders-trumps-hurt-isis-more-then-obama/

This item is a bit crude but makes many cogent points regarding disingenuous and dishonest media blow hards.  https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/11/10/spanking-the-monkey/

The shenanigans and deceptive actions of CNN  are unbelievable.  They are dishonest and irresponsible and do not deserve viewership.  This item illustrates. Quote: "Of course, explaining that wouldn’t fit CNN’s theme: Evil Trump appointee ravages environment. Their reporter did at least speak with the mine’s CEO, Tom Collier, who tried to explain. “It’s not a science — it’s a process decision.” But the reporter, Drew Griffin, wouldn’t budge. He called Collier “a guy who wants to mine gold in an area that many scientists believe will destroy one of the most pristine sockeye salmon sporting grounds in the whole world.” By the way, Collier isn’t an evil Republican-businessman-nature-destroyer. He’s a Democrat who once ran environment policy for President Bill Clinton and Vice President Al Gore. CNN never mentioned that either. Instead, the reporter implied evil collusion: “This looks like the head of a gold mine went to a new administrator and got him to reverse what an entire department had worked on for years.” Here at least the report was accurate. Obama’s environmental department did try to kill that mine for years. They colluded with groups like the Natural Resources Defense Council, one of America’s wealthiest environment groups.      https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/10/18/a-cnn-smear/

More dirt gets heaped on a deserving mainstream media.  Quote: "The way Fake News framed Rand Paul as a participant in an “altercation” rather than the victim of brutal assault is as perverse as any other lie they have published!  The way the media has framed Rand Paul shows what kind of brutal and committed people pose as journalists. Can you imagine the response if Chuck Schumer was hospitalized by a MAGA-hat-wearing neighbor? If he attacked him while Schumer was mowing his lawn would reports say that Schumer was involved in “an altercation”?  More important: Would the media not bother to interview their neighbors?     https://eaglerising.com/48557/the-media-framed-rand-paul/    Hateful leftist media hates even the smallest thing the political right may/may not do on principle.  The ignore or downplay or excuse anything small but especially anything large the political left does.  So many of them are truly irresponsible lying fake news perpetrators.  

Anyone who watches CNN news should reconsider doing so.  Quote: "Once upon a time, CNN was a reputable news source. If a quote came out of the news station it stood for trustworthy material. That has come completely crashing down. Now, the news station doesn’t even know what it is doing. Instead of just reporting quality news though or tilting to provide mostly conservative or mostly liberal news stories, it has stooped to simply creating false news about the President and his administration. President Trump is on an extended Asian trip, stopping in countries such as South Korea and Japan. In fact, it is the longest extended Asian trip for a President in decades. During his visit to Japan, Trump and the Japanese Prime Minster took time out to feed fish in a koi pond. CNN attempted to make it seem as if Donald Trump intentionally overfed fish in the pond. For anyone who has had fish before, there are certain fish that will overeat until their stomachs can no longer handle the food. The sensationalized story though couldn’t be further from the truth and perfectly illustrates just how far off the ledge CNN has fallen."   http://patrioticviralnews.com/articles/comey-caught-red-handed-softening-language-on-hillary-clintons-crimes/
