Agreeing with a senator on one thing, does not mean that I agree with your bizarre interpretation of what you think the senator secretly meant.
And yes, I had not forgotten that you do not understand what dictionaries are.
Btw whenever someone asks who are the moderates in the Dem party. Look at Feinstein. No one likes her for shit like this:
Dianne Feinstein Says NSA Phone Records Surveillance Has Thwarted Terrorism, 'But That's Classified'
Dianne Feinstein Says NSA Phone Records Surveillance Has Thwarted Terrorism, 'But That's Classified'
She's a Moderate Nazi.
Got it
When you agree that government should determine which journalists are "legitimate," then you have agree to the first step on the road to control.
Which quite obviously I don't agree with, you illiterate cretin.
btw: Goebbels was a Nazi. Nazis are RIGHT WING:
Major elements of Nazism have been described as far-right, such as allowing domination of society by people deemed racially superior, while purging society of people declared inferior, who were said to be a threat to national survival.

I'm a journalist and I agree with the Senator.
I meet people everyday who tell me "Hey - I'm a writer, too!" and then they tell me the amazing idea they have for a movie script.
Being a journalist means you get paid to produce journalism. Period.

Ok Hitler was Far-right
Stalin and Castro were far-left.
Does it make a difference? In the end it is totalitarian control painted a different color.
That's right, if you're a journalist who makes a living from donations and sponsership, because the FREE MARKET enjoys the quality of your reporting, YOU ARE NOT A "TRUE" JOURNALIST.
Apparently, only people who are under the pressure of corporate overlords giving them a salary are considered "real" journalists.
Fits in nicely with Peter Thing's (King's) wish to imprison journalists that report any classified information.
ViralRead » Senator Feinstein: ?Real Reporters? Are Salaried Under Shield LawAnd so it begins. The Government has declared itself the decider of who does, and who does not, qualify as a "journalist."
A "Media Shield Law" is not even necessary, since it's already enshrined in the First Amendment. This is obviously all a pretense to create a privilege class of journalists, and to deny or disparage that right to all others.
It is hard to imagine how any journalist that makes their living from the Free Market (subscription/sponsorship/donation), would be any less qualified than a reporter that is a slave to their respective corporate paymaster. In fact, it's the other way around, the salaried "agents" of the corporations are the inferior and least trustworthy of the reporters.
Who is government to determine who does, who does not, have the right qualifications to be a reporter. Isn't the FREE MARKET the best judge of that standard?During the hearing, Feinstein proposed an amendment to the bill that would make the law only apply to journalists she described as real reporters. Those include reporters who are a salaried agent of a media company such as a newspaper, broadcast news station, news website or another type of news service. As ABC reports, Feinstein was concerned that the current version of the bill would grant a special privilege to people who arent really reporters at all, who have no professional qualifications.
What would Peter Thing's and Dianne Frankstein's baby be like?
Can this Libtard explain her reasoning? Why would a journalist who makes money from donations and sponsorship be any less a journalist who is a slave to the corporate payroll? If anything, it is the OTHER WAY AROUND!A real reporter, declared Madame Feinstein during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, is a salaried agent of a media company like the New York Times or ABC News, not a shoestring operation with volunteers and writers who are not paid.
Feinstein voiced her concern that the current version of the bill would grant a special privilege to people who arent really reporters at all, who have no professional qualifications, like bloggers and citizen journalists.

You're also a servile government-worshiping toady, so it's no surprise that you agree that government should have control over journalism. Joseph Goebbels would be proud.
Jesus wept....where did I say government should control journalism?
Honestly, you post like someone who is about five years old.
And no, I am not right wing.
One is a journalist to the extent that one actually has an audience.
I disagree that the litmus test is getting paid for it.
Well, yeah, that makes sense too, but I question anyone who has a profession but no income from it.
Nothing like the Rightyloon twist. What she was addressing was how we live in a time where anyone with an internets connection in grandmas basement are calling themselves journaiists because they start a blog. They are not professionals.

Anyone who gets paid money for journalism is a journalist in my book.
Why would I make an exception for someone I don't like?

Tell me something, if the right had decided to toss Helen Thomas out of the briefing room because she wasn't getting a salary from a a news organization how would you have reacted?
Or did you not know that stinger is another word for freelancer?

Those who draw a salary have to answer to their paymaster, so they are not free journalists as the paymaster can tell that what to publish; and what news to bury.
