Can’t trust the Liberal Media

[TimFitz]

Think about that for a moment.

Leftists love to complain about Trump ranting on social media. However, we get to hear Trump's rant raw and unfiltered. I prefer that than having the media twisting, adding, or removing words that the politician say or didn't say to appease the voting base.

if the media “filtered “ it, it would appear substantially less idiotic and vulgar.

Don't know what you were doing during the Obama Administration, but he was worse than Trump......Say what?! That's right....But, don't take my word for it....

Barack Obama’s press freedom legacy

President Obama took office in 2009 promising to make his administration the most transparent in American history. New York Times national security correspondent David Sanger, for one, says he’s failed. “This is the most closed, control freak administration I’ve ever covered,” said Sanger in a...

Report: Obama brings chilling effect on journalism

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. government's aggressive prosecution of leaks and efforts to control information are having a chilling effect on journalists and government whistle-blowers, according to a report released Thursday on U.S. press freedoms under the Obama administration.

Nothing like what y our beloved fuhrer and his propoganda organs are doing now.

you danced right past the question I(which was predictable)

Atkisson’s lawsuits against the Obama administration were tossed out because they were pure fantasy. She thinks a sticky key on her computer is a hacker, because he has absolutely no idea how hacking works. She appears to watch too many movies.

Meanwhile Trump is coercing news agencies to change their reporting because they’re afraid of repercussions from the government against their operations.

More opinion unsubstantiated by facts.

She trades in fake news and the sort of propoganda the Trump regime factors.

Opinion unsubstantiated. Where are the facts and validation

I doubt you can dispute anything Sheryl said. Her short segment on astroturfing from years ago is still 100% true today.

your response piqued my curiosity. So I read her piece (i don’t rely on video).

She correctly defined astroturf.

The rest of it was a textbook discussion on how right wing media works, especially the Trump machine.

As for the real definition; fakecgrass roots organizations that are actually fronts for powerful corporat interests and often run by lobbyists, she says very little.

Her “whatcto watch for” can be seen every day in conservative posts on platforms like this. They buy, spread, repeat and defend the lies and misleading vclaims to an uncritical and not well informed audience.

The biggest astroturf groups of them all were the various groups that comprised the “area party” campaign. Nearly all of the groups were run out of K Street lobby shops.

if you really want to spot astroturf, forget Sheryl Atkissan‘s silly guidelines.

Instead, find out whether the story is true. Check multiple sources (another just right wing trash blogs that crib one another’s fake news)

Find out who the poster, or the person/organization doing the talking is.

Find out who they are working for. Which will tell you the real agenda.

ALWAYS follow the money!

Here we go with the false equivalences. Obama did nothing like Trump has done.

You're right. Obama was worse....He tried jailing reporters, and he would sick his DoJ on them....False equivalencies indeed.

I gave you 4 different takes on Obama's assault against the media, including the Columbia School of Journalism, The New York Times, etc...

See, this is what you dishonest ***** do. Multiple sourcing reported on this, and you pick out ONE source YOU don't like, and poof! It never happened....So dishonest.

Yeah? So, who is the NYTimes working for? Who is the Columbia School of Journalism working for? Idiot.

Between ABC settling because they lied about Trump and CBS once again caught trying influence an election now wants to settle, no wonder why there is a strong market for conservative media.

No he wasn't. But you racists want to try saying that. To you, Obama was a dictator just because he was in the white house. That scared you pussies because you thought he was going to start making EOS to ensllve whites. And since that time, in true fascist form, Republicans have done their level best to **** with the voting system so that the type of voter that elected Obama would have a tougher time getting to vote.

Why would you try to lie....All you have to do is Google it....Anyway, you'd better get busy campaigning for Mamdani...He's now the official Dem nominee for mayor in NYC....Get busy fucknuts....

We found out they were being paid to support the Deep State thru USAID HHS etc. Thank you DOGE.
I was always suspicious how they paid those fags with no viewership $20million per year to read a teleprompter.

Liberal Media has been exposed continuously for protecting Democrats and attacking conservatives. They will sit on stories if it makes their guy or gal look bad. That’s not journalism.

Yeah, you really don't need a degree in journalism in order to spout biased talking points.

I remember when I was young there was basically only one game in town and Walter Cronkite was the most trusted man in America. That was because he was a likable guy and was the only game in town and was even considered Democrat VP material at one point. He has his place in history but if he lived today, he would be seen as just spewing more of the same biased liberal talking points that the MSM media spew. After Cronkite's time Americans saw more and more (still to this day) how we just don't get the whole truth from the MSM.

Lol...is that your best? Trump may forget things or say things that makes a person goes huh, what. He is nowhere near like braindead Biden.

Then the media are doing the talking.
