How is he able to do this correct thing with what I've been told is no experience

Mike Lee Stresses He Would Have Posted Same Thing If Own Family Savagely Murdered

You would like to think emotional appeals to decency like this would cause people like Lee and his staff to reflect on their choices, but my guess is his staffers passed it around and wrote "lol cry more lib"

Same energy

the white house correspondents association has formalized its role as a right-wing propaganda group

AG Sulzberger was 37 when he took over the NY Times, I guess experience only matters if you aren't born into your job.

reading this out loud is indistinguishable from a fox news monologue

The human brain is fundamentally incapable of imagining what the media would do if a democrat posted this

The media will respond by going to the Beef & Blood Diner in Bulletsville to find real americans who aren't concerned with academic debates about rising forms of government and believe the president is doing great on the economy

Ten years ago I wrote a 12-part choose-your-own-adventure invitation to a Halloween party with an Anthony Weiner plot and today the Associated Press... just... tweeted it out

this type of thing is supposed to be sent with invisible ink

Worth noting, in light of the shooting of Minnesota Democratic lawmakers today, that Jennings has spent the last few weeks insisting that *the left* “has violence in its heart”

One reason it's possibly even worse than that is the "regular" media is trying to copy Fox explicitly by hiring Jesse Watters basement clones like Scott Jennings to justify misinformation as a valid alternate form of information

It's a backboard-shattering slam dunk for whichever Democrat going on Meet the Press on Sunday to ask Kristen Welker why NBC News didn't say the video contradicts the White House in this headline. Holding the media accountable publicly has to be the responsibility of the party opposing fascism

Sourcing the dispute to Padilla even when the video proves Padilla is right is an explicit endorsement of the White House's credibility by a news organization

This will never change — Fauci created covid, Dems manufactured Jan. 6, the Biden family is criminal — unless liberal billionaires fund a real news media

notice the b-b-b-but biden response to "looks like trump is in decline"

The news media is fascist

ABC News: Trump Team Reaches Across Aisle

(spoilers) my favorite part of andor s2 is the episode where cassian and dedre play against each other in a charity softball game

that dumbfuck megan mcardle couldn't have missed harder. bluesky has risen to twitter level. it's finally the destination for what twitter is best at: posting benign anecdotes about personal run-ins with celebrities on the day they die

your ass is scraping the floor if the propaganda you're writing for trump hinges on a quote from sean spicer who picked up before the first ring

dude this party is such an echo chamber. it's just friends hanging out and chilling and having a good time. you need to invite some people over who want to kill you with hammers

Just want to express once again my contempt for all the mainstream and libertarian platforms that promoted this loathsome discount Goebbels. Shame on you.

There is no way to move forward unless rich liberals find a real media operation

The official position of ABC News is that Donald Trump does not hate people

a top reason republicans lie is they know the news media will launder it by upgrading their lie to "possible" and airing it

do not rank

i still do not understand how anyone takes mr. “liberal fascism” remotely seriously as a commentator

AP Style Guide page 21: always use active voice when possible except when the story is about Israel

ABC News will fire you if you don't say the president is a wise elder acting out of the goodness of his god-touched heart

The explicit purpose of network media is to establish the government’s narrative as the default as soon as possible by having the fascist party represented in a trusted news environment with the stated guarantee that they will be invited back every day regardless of whether their statements are true

Wonder if republicans have any ideas about a thing that work will set you

Me singing Creed Higher (phallocentric) vs me singing Creed Six Feet From the Edge (gynocentric)

put $60,000 on the new york times using the phrase "increasingly frustrated" in the lead and a parlay on "screaming in the oval office" in the nut of an article about trump reacting to musk within the next 24 hours

"If you want to fight fascism, go and win elections" ah yes elections the thing that fascists famously respect and continue

nyt descriptions of trump as hinge messages

this is the exact same energy as fox news producing a video in 2018 called "melania comforts child who spilled water"

MAGA Voter Assumed Trump Would Only Deport People On List She Mailed To White House

The problem is the media says "Trump claims" for everything and will also say "Harris claims" or "AOC claims" for claims that clear the bar of plausibility whereas Biden robot clones are obviously if not deliberately fantastical spasms of a mendacious troll

i mean they did, but do you think the NYT ran more stories about what mass deportation looked like in reality or more stories about trumps claim kamala isnt really Black? did cnn do more segments regurgitating trumps lie hed only go after criminals or talking about who would really be deported?

The joke 12 months ago was “did AI write this” and the news today is “AI wrote this”

his killings may sometimes be senseless or even downright unpleasant but he's killing every day and targeting all-comers. It's impressive stuff

Journalists describing craven opportunists even adjusted for Overton inflation as "pugilistic" is a silicon-macho tell that they want to be around them if not be them themselves
