AOC: Capitol Riot May Lead Congress to Rein in Media Disinformation

[JustAGuy1]

Why would any of you RWNJs be concerned with ending disinformation. Since every right-wing outlet posts, broadcasts, or prints nothing but the truth, you should welcome control of every fake news source.

Just think of the benefit to your weasel-in-chief had AOC's suggestion been implemented four years ago. a second term for your orange-tinted messiah would have been assured.

(Only a weasel would throw the insurgents he sent to the Capitol to attempt his coup, under the bus by blaming them for everything, AND saying they should be severely punished.)

Who decides what is disinformation?
You? The bitch waitress?

 

[Glacerus]

Media watchdogs are shocked and appalled that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said that Congress is looking into media literacy initiatives, including a commission to help "rein in" misinformation in the wake of last week’s deadly breach of the U.S. Capitol – and one critic slammed AOC’s suggestion as "wholly un-American."

Venezuela has a Bus Driver President.
AOC wants to be our first Bartender President.

One simple way AOC could reign in misinformation is to shut the hell up.

 

[BluesLegend]

AOC is the smartest Dem in congress, I mean that.

The challenge would seem to be in how to make such a commission an impartial arbiter. That said, the present situation leaves much to be desired.

"It is a melancholy truth, that a suppression of the press could not more compleatly deprive the nation of it's benefits, than is done by it's abandoned prostitution to falsehood."

As an aside to this issue I found a very interesting article that is a long read and the writer tried to use formulas, etc. To come up with a list of the least biased sources, reliable news sources. After reading it I realized that if you don't try to both get unbiased sources for your news but don't look at opposite views to your own you will never learn the art of compromise.

They will tell you how to think and what to think....this is reeducation of today...

This begs the question "Who decides what is the truth and what is disinformation?" Is it anything that goes against the progressive agenda? If it is, its the beginning of the end of the republican party as silencing your enemy is the first step in winning the war.

They already shut Trumps twitter account down, yet the fucking ayatollah of fucking Iran that has called for death to Israel never had a single tweet deleted nor was he ever banned. They hypocrisy of the left isn't even hidden anymore.

And apparently this fucking dumb bitch bartender turned house member doesn't know what is in the constitution that she swore to uphold. There is something called "freedom of the press" you big tooth bitch.

That is both frightening and true!

Thanks for sharing that Joel, but I have to knock hard about CNN's rating as a slightly left lean lol and they've done the same thing on a similar media biased rating site I use: www.allsides.com

Seems this is a time for the bee watcher to have a watcher ha for the sake of validity and honesty

The art of compromise? Deal with the Devil and he will meet you 1/2 way? Not likely...

The real question is, why does no one expect you leftwing scum-suckers to be concerned with free speech?

As always, I consider it a badge of honor to be disapproved of by tyrant-worshipping garbage like you.

If my dog got elected to Congress as a Democrat, he'd hold that "honor". It's not a high bar to clear.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

This is the same purge that happened in Germany. Get ready.

Socialists don't like free speech.

Neither do Trumpsters. They're just as eager to declare social media a "public utility".

That's what's frightening about this. Very few in DC are willing to stand up for real freedom of speech.

They want to stop free speech, then confiscate guns, then kill you. This is what they are. We've seen this rodeo in past history.

That's wrong. There was no media movement or govt movement to stop free speech. That's doesn't dismiss many Rs though who are corrupt with the Dems.
