Diogenes’ Middle Finger:
(RANT) There have been many memorable weeks of media dishonesty since Donald Trump was elected, but I can’t remember any that quite compares with what we’ve witnessed the last several days. We have long passed the point of just writing off the hysterical lies being excused as simply mistakes. They are clearly not to anyone with a room temperature number IQ, and only hate filled hearts and the minds of fools could believe otherwise. They are deliberate and it’s time to start asking what exactly it means for our predisposition towards what many still falsely believe are the beacons of the truth.
The banner week for the media began with the opening of the US Embassy in Jerusalem. Despite this move being mandated by US law as far back as 1995, and despite the fact that Israel has the right to choose it’s own capital, this was of course spun as the worst thing since Trump took two scoops of ice cream instead of one. Cable news stations paraded “expert” after expert to tell us exactly how bad this move was, because when needing advice on good foreign policy, dragging in Obama administration failures is ‘standard operating procedure’.
It mattered not one bit to the media that Hamas stoked riots in the Gaza strip using human shields of women and children to protect terrorists who were trying to breach the border and kill Israelis. Not even Hamas and it’s members are willing to lie so brazenly as to describe these riots as peaceful, unarmed protests. The Media’s response? Hold my beer.
Aside from the outright lies about the rioters being unarmed, the media also chose to assert somehow it was Ivanka Trump’s fault (Daddy’s Little Ghoul) that Hamas is a violent terrorist organization that sacrifices its people to garner friendly coverage. The disconnect from reality here is stunning. To see our press so deliberately mislead and lie in order to propagate Hamas propaganda, which even Hamas is willing to admit isn’t true, is disturbing. more here
Yeah, but we were embarrassed by that overwhelming UN vote saying that moving the embassy was a really bad thing.
Well maybe embarrassed is the wrong word… 😉
Hamas is just paid Muslim brotherhood, Barry’s friends.
Designate them terrorists like Egypt has.
The business model for network MSM is broken. Indefinitely, maybe permanently.
They broadcast Orwell’s 2 Minute Hate…24/7. There’s only a finite audience for that kind of absolute seething, quivering, hyperventilating Trump-and-America hatred.
It’s repetitive, and boring, and eventually there’s literally nothing new to say. In TV, that’s fatal.
Mueller, Avenatti, Stormy Daniels— the MSM keeps flogging these dead horses and unlikeable nonvideogenic voices because there’s nothing new to say, and no new way to say it.
Audience fatigue is deadly. CNNs total audience combined with MSNBC, on their best day, is barely the population of Jacksonville Florida.
CNN alone reaches not even the total population of Maine.
CNN and MSNBC aren’t even “networks” any more’’…unless some obscure Esperanto language home workout show for paraplegics is a “network”.
They’re still well known only because of Boomer habit. Remember Pia Zadora?

“It’s time to start holding them accountable”.
Uuuh I need clarification on that. As in how?
By stamping our feet outside of their corporate offices?
How does one fight a pathetic dishonest propagandist liar(s)?
NYDN sub title: “55 slaughtered”, turns out 50 were Hummus fighters, extremely dangerous scum now correctly DEAD..

i began watching 1984 the other night on netflix. Eerie isnt the word for it but its close. it was like a parallel universe. lies and distortion just like today.
Many so called “news” networks now work hand in hand with the dark side of the Washington swamp. They are a needed gear of this dark entity to take America to the dump and leave it to wither and die. Its way past time for voters to just stop looking and start observing closely.
