Straight from the Third Reich playbook.

Contrary to popular belief it is not the job description for news media to reveal the truth, nor determine how many opinions there are.

It should probably be the job description of your representatives to reveal the truth to you, but for some reason, people are conditioned to accept that politicians lie to them; and we understand why - representatives have to represent secular-plural gerrymandered districts, and are inclined to pander to different audiences.

That's why congresscritters should be sworn in, just like witnesses.

Lester Holt committed sexual harassment with several of the staff and needs released from his job immediately. No need to hear from Lester's POV; there's no need to be fair or hear from both sides to get at the truth.

But you don't say why.

But you do post on this board.

So, it goes without saying that you agree.

So, Hannity, Carlson, etc don't have a need to look at both sides either?

If someone doesn't have the confidence and conviction to debate their argument and contrast it with the count-argument, than, their argument is not valid.

It's why fair debates are the cornerstone of democracy and good policy.

Oh yeah, oaths of office will prevent lying - I never thought of that!

The problem is nobody knows how to organize a "fair debate." If we did, it would be going on here at USMB, and not the persistent trolling everybody does.

He is not even a journalist and needs to just proclaim his Democratic Party communist affiliation. Fuck that boring ass, "I wear glasses to make me look intelligent" dumb ignorant bastard.

Yes, and the left should understand the rules they set will be used by the right...
