How often do we hear that in here?
We post something from the Washington Times or through Drudge to the AP or from Fox because, well, the truth is -- the LSM won't.
They just won't.
Sure, they'll have it on their website as 'raw feed' from the wire services. Who doesn't? Every two-bit media outlet in the World that subscribes (a PAID service) to the AP, BBC, UPI, the Slimes, Reuters or whatever will have it somewhere on the website.
Sometimes -- The even (gasp!) print it in the viewspaper....... In section F, page 17, right below the article on how to shampoo your Poodle.
But when it comes to TV, nobody on the dim side EVER questions them.
By God, if it was on the Nightly Freaking News, then it's the BY GOD TRUTH and no amount of arguing, cajoling or fact-finding will change thier minds.
You wonder why dims are so wrong so often and so misled all the time.....?
It's their choice. They don't HAVE to get their views/news from the alphabet media and Comedy Central. They CHOOSE to.
So they, in effect, CHOOSE to be uninformed and stupid.
Here's your 'reliable source' dims
He’s Back! NBC Rats Out Brian Williams On 11 Lies…
Just call him the Rocket Man.
Via Inquisitr
A review of NBC anchorman Brian Williams’ journalistic exploits has put a number to his fibs. So far, the tally stands at 11 different occasions he fell short of telling the whole truth, and the investigation isn’t done.
In an interesting twist, it appears that the NBC News staff was aware of Williams’ fibbing — they even pointed out specific incidents for in-house investigators to look deeper into, the New York Times reported.
These include the lie that first unraveled Williams’ position as NBC anchorman and led to his suspension — a 2003 incident in Iraq in which Brian claimed he was in a helicopter damaged by rocket fire.
But now, the public can add these lies to their laundry list: a missile attack on a different helicopter in Iraq in 2006; the story about how he got a piece of the helicopter that crashed during the assassination of Osama bin Laden; and one during his reporting of the conflict between Israel and Lebanon in 2006.
That last lie also centered around a helicopter; Brian apparently told a student-run TV station in Connecticut that rockets passed “just beneath” one he was riding in during the conflict. However, he told a different account in a blog, the Washington Post added.
But the investigation has also turned up a brand-new fib, and this one involved his reports from Tahrir Square during the Arab Spring. By Williams’ account, which he told to Jon Stewart on The Daily Show in February of 2011, he was right in the thick of things. Turns out, he was most likely watching from a balcony overlooking the square.
As Brian’s on-air fabrication went, he was amid the violent clashes between protestors and a pro-government group, riding on horses and camels. He claimed he made eye contact with one of these men on a horse, and then said the man used a whip on protestors.
