Well, obviously the media should be covering both of these important stories.

The liberal media is owned by decidedly illiberal rightwing oligarchs and corporations.

Also my timeline on this platform…

I don't watch national TV news, but the local (Portland OR) stations have been all over the protests, local and national.

They let the demonstrators talk. It's heartening.

We need to keep this up. Indefinitely.

American News is corporate owned. They are only going to tell you what their board members want you to know. Don't watch any of it. Don't be complicit in their charade that benefits literal fascists.

My local news did “equal coverage” of “counter protests”. 🙄 10 guys in red hats yelling obscenities is not a counter protest.

Hmmm. Slow news day. No buildings broken into. No policemen attacked. No riots.

Oh...yeah... "News" media is owned by the people being protested. Never give the competition free advertising.

Canadian Tire is very happy to export bags of sand for the US media to stick their heads in.

FOX NEWS: People aren’t jumping from windows, they’re merely showing *DADDY* how high they can fly. 😜

It’s completely infuriating. I appreciate that you and others see it ❤️

News media owned by billionaires doesn't report on the enormous uprising of the common people against oligarchy. I could act surprised, but instead I will do an interpretive dance of surprise to "Tear Down the Facists Down".

The backstory is that both cat and dog were introverts.

News media doesn’t want to air anything like crowds gathering together in legal protest. No blood. If one single car had plowed into a crowd, they’d have rerun the footage from phones all night long. Because violence gets views.
