Faith in the US media

I have absolutely none.

My wife had CNN on yesterday and I just started laughing. I had been saying it for years, but all proven now.

Always be skeptical of mass media outlets who pander to selected political and social leanings. All of them. Todays 'media' is not out Grandfathers media. Skeptical to mean cross reference your sources, read and do research on what you disagree with and never eeeeeever buy into political affiliations with mute meek unshaken allegiance.

It truly has become fake news and it’s very disappointing

I believe we can just label everything on TV/other media Fake News and be done with it. That's the lazy way out.

I believe we need to scrutinize and try and separate the wheat from the chaff.

Some TV talking heads are so biased you can practically see the spittle flying when they're talking about Trump. Shame they still have jobs in supposedly reputable networks.

At some point this will have to come to a head and get resolved, because unfortunately we all don't own time-warp vehicles, where we can project ourselves into where news is being made so we can come to our own conclusions.

For now we'll just have to use our own super-powers of discernment.

My man tits, when the former CIA Director comes on a major network and numerous times says there are mountains of evidence to prove collusion. When the head of the FBI releases info to the media for his own agenda to manipulate the press. When the NYT has to make retraction over retraction it is fake manufactured bullshit that we have been fed for two years straight. Was it a mistake or a lie. Either way it was all fake. The term fake news is dismissed primarily by the same media organizations that deficated this out. They are saying the same thing you are saying. Sorry my man tits but fake news is exactly what it is. If you wish to call it something else go ahead but that which is not real is fake. I can’t make it anymore clear.

Fake fake fake fake fake fake fake fake fake fake fake fake. I’m pissed as I had to listen to this fake ass shit for two years. People say trump is thin skinned etc bullshit he dealt with this fake fake fake onslaught for two years without having the CIA whack a few people. I would have sent a seal team into CNN

[walrus]

Fake called by any other name is still just as fake

[walrus]

Two years of fake ass bullshit

Hey bro, I get your anger. It's probably the 4 straight posts that tipped me off.

I get that Trump was vindicated by the Mueller report. I get it that Republicans are dancing in the streets while Democrats are crying in their soup.

I guess we're not talking about the same thing here.

I'm talking about the popular narrative nowadays that EVERY NEWS on TV is Fake News.

WTF are we supposed to believe then?

Think about it.

If you can broad brush everything saying it's Fake News and move on.... where do we turn to for clarity and facts?

Or...... is that being too much of a melt?

What about CNN and their attacks on the schoolkid who did nothing wrong with the Native Indian chap? Or the Iraq War? Big or small, there is a CNN false narrative to back it up.

It’s crazy, we talk about conspiracy theories and laugh at them when we are living in one.
