Mainstream and Social Media 2

The New York Time is now a full blown left wing propaganda rag. It is a laughing stock anymore. This item makes the point. Quote: "The New York Times issued a massive correction after the liberal newspaper severely misreported the number of COVID hospitalities among children in the United States by more than 800,000. A report headlined “A New Vaccine Strategy for Children: Just One Dose, for Now,” by science and health reporter Apoorva Mandavilli, was peppered with errors before major changes were made to the story. The Times initially reported “nearly 900,000 children have been hospitalized” with COVID since the pandemic began, when the factual data in the now-corrected version is that “more than 63,000 children were hospitalized with Covid-19 from August 2020 to October 2021.”As the former newspaper of record, which now acts as a public relations arm of the far left, the Times is often at the front line of for legitimizing misinformation.  In the latest example, the paper claimed that ‘nearly 900,000 children had been hospitalized’ with COVID 19 when the real number is  ‘more than 63,000 children hospitalized from August 2020 to October 2021. This is not just adding a zero by mistake, it is a clear instance of either a reporter and presumably their editor having no idea how to read data, or a blatant attempt to create a splash headline that would spread into the American consciousness as frighteningly real before anyone could get the truth out.  An honest look at the New York Times abuse of facts in the past, would lead any objective observer to conclude that manipulation rather than incompetence is at the root of the “mistake.” Remember, it was the New York Times which breathlessly ran with the story that Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick died from injuries sustained by being hit with a fire extinguisher on Jan. 6th.  In mid-February, the Times quietly changed the story after the entire country was led to believe that the Jan. 6 events at the Capitol were violent.  The Coroner’s report on Officer Sicknick’s death revealed that he died of a stroke that was unrelated to the Jan. 6th Capitol events. Facts matter, and one thing that is obviously true is that the New York Times no longer cares about facts, having sacrificed truth on the altar of a Marxist narrative long ago."    New York Times gets it wrong, again!

Staying on the New York Times theme. Quote: "The Fake News Media fear mongers continue to cover up facts and smear anyone who pushes back against their pandemic agenda. Ron DeSantis proved to be their biggest enemy when he refused to go along.  Now, this jaw-dropping New York Times’ correction shows Ron DeSantis was right all along. The Fake News Media has bent over backwards to smear Florida Governor Ron DeSantis on COVID. But most know they’re more interested in carrying water for Joe Biden and the Democrats than reporting the truth. They tell themselves it’s not lying as long as they quietly print a retraction later. But more information is coming out daily about The Fake News Media’s deceptive reporting and Americans are catching on to the media elite’s stealth edits."  The New York Times just tried to quietly make a retraction of “science and health reporter” Apoorva Mandavilli’s gross exaggeration on the number of children In a rather embarrassing “correction,” The Times stated: “The Times initially reported ‘nearly 900,000 children have been hospitalized’ with COVID since the pandemic began, when the factual data in the now-corrected version is that ‘more than 63,000 children were hospitalized with Covid-19 from August 2020 to October 2021.’” Americans everywhere are outraged that a supposed “news outlet” would so blatantly mislead its readers.But they’ve been doing it for years and getting away with it, so why stop now."    Ron DeSantis was right and a shocking retraction from The New York Times proves it - Political Animal News

This woman is one of the most hate filled, dishonest and corrupt person on the political left. But, the foolish idiots on MSNBC thinks she is great. Get a load of this complete nonsense. Quote: "MSNBC Defends Stacey Abrams’s Stolen-Election Lies with Disinformation. Last week, I called out Stacey Abrams for making the same kind of stolen-election claims regarding her 2018 gubernatorial loss that President Trump has roundly, and rightly, been criticized for making in the months since he lost his election. In response, MSNBC jumped to Abrams’s defense, arguing that there are some differences between the two, and used demonstrably false election disinformation to do so. In fact, in the whole MSNBC piece, there is only one piece of evidence cited to bolster their claim that President Trump did not follow that Stacey Abrams playbook. Governor Kemp “purged thousands of Black people from the voter rolls” before the 2018 election. But the source that the story links to does not even support the author’s claim. The source story references 53,000 voter registrations that were put “on hold,” not removed from the voter rolls. Moving past the incorrect headline, the story says, incorrectly, that those voters “can still cast a provisional ballot,” meaning they obviously were not removed from the voter rolls as MSNBC claims. However, even this isn’t true. The voters put on hold actually could vote with a regular (not provisional) ballot at the polls by simply showing their ID, just like any other Georgian."    MSNBC Defends Stacey Abrams’s Stolen-Election Lies with Disinformation | National Review    Disinformation is what the mainstream media engages in all the time. Forever and without end.

If anyone still does not believe left wing operations like CNN are purveyors of dangerous fake news which misleads the public and incites violence, please read this. Quote: "CNN is dealing with the fallout of another massive scandal. But this time the guilty parties can’t duck responsibility because their misdeeds were caught on tape. Back in August 2020, CNN host Jake Tapper repeatedly spread the Big Lie that Kenosha police officers shot an unarmed black man named Jacob Blake while Blake’s two children watched from the backseat of the car. This was all a lie. Police officers responded to a 9-1-1 call after Blake showed up at a woman’s house – who Blake allegedly raped in the past – after Blake allegedly took two children and put them in the back seat of his car. The police officers struggled with Blake who eventually broke free and got his hands on a knife. That is when the officers shot Blake. In an interview with ABC, Blake even confirmed he was armed with a knife at the time police shot him."     One top CNN host does not want you to see this career-killing video - Pants on Fire News 
        Does anyone think they will change their behavior and be more careful and honest with what they say in the future. Not likely....
