It's always been blatant, people just couldn't accept it.

I watched the "news" media keep calling Ron Paul an "isolationist" and a "racist" for a very long time. I'm just happy more people can recognize what the media really is.

Back in the early naughts (I guess that's what they are) I was so fucking arrogant that I thought journalists didn't know enough about a situation to properly report on it, so I'd try to contact them to correct their "errors". I knew our media lied before sometimes, but I didn't think they ALL did.

They all did and they still all do. That is their job.

richwicks says

It's quite obvious our news media is just propaganda. Their mistake was opening up comments in the first place. I learned more about what was going on in the world reading comments than I would ever get out of reading the article itself. I don't think I'm alone either. When comments disappeared, so did the readership.

In the infrastructure bill the government is pushing though is direct support for our "news" media.

Yup.

Hence the "Misleading" crap on Social Media... What I love about Misleading is that the censors aren't saying the fact is wrong, but the conclusion the writing is drawing from it is "unapproved" - it "leads away" from the Peddled Narrative.

The only result of this is to further destroy the credibility of the media for those that no longer trust it. What is outright censored, IS true. Flat Earther's aren't censored. People like Steve Pieczenik aren't censored. Who is obviously full of crap, but not censored, those are psyops, and not everybody in a psyop realizes they're part of it.

It's honestly a waste of your time to keep ahead of the BS coming from NBC and CBS. The primary point of "mainstream news" is propaganda but secondary, it's to waste your time.

The only reason we talk about transgendered bathrooms and transgendered kids, is because THEY constantly do. Have either of these issues effected you? My bet is they haven't. I am in Silicon Valley, and I remember hearing about BLM and Antifa constantly but it only effected me once in San Jose. It was really a small handful of people running around and making it impossible to drive through the city. I wouldn't say it was more than 100 people. For that, we had national coverage of them.

The media makes small things seem huge, and huge things seem small all the time. For example the "crowds" for Clinton versus "the few fanatics" that showed up for Trump. MSM isn't credible but it still drives the conversation - now mostly about what they are lying about. It doesn't occur to a whole lot of people they are entirely fabricating issues, but they are. They do it all the time. "White nationalist racism" is another example. Does anybody really know any white guy that's really racist?

Whipping up a crisis
The wall between journalism and activism is badly corroded

October 18, 2021 | 8:30 pm ...

I can’t say for sure why The Daily botched the whip issue. I can say that ‘which side are you on?’ thinking is endemic in journalism right now, and it rears its head most perniciously when the ideological stakes are high. ‘Are we going to include that whipping thing because everyone says it’s true, or are we going to fact-check it?’

Who wants to be seen, in a business dominated by liberals, as the journalist who doesn’t take racism seriously, and ‘downplays’ the horror that everyone thinks they’ve seen? I’d offer a different version of Mr Jack in the Box’s Manichaean choice: are you an activist or a journalist? Which side are you on?

Disagree here. The Culture War IS the War.

If Culture can convince people that guns are the badz, goodbye 2nd Amendment, it'll be whittled away and slowly disposed of. Just like if you can convince enough people through the Culture War that gay marriage is okay, it will happen, even if the entire State of California (California!!!) votes against it in a clear majority. It will simply be imposed by the Judiciary "finding the law", despite all evidence to the contrary.

Or that Immigration is an unmitigated good, and those against it are barbarian haters. Not only will the law be changed, but it won't be enforced long before that, as we see now.

Or that criminals are really mostly the victims of an inherently racist system, which is what the US is really based on. Therefore, criminals shouldn't be arrested or at least subjected to great understanding and lenience.

Transgendered bathrooms are deliberate Antinominan Goals & Demoralization Efforts, it's designed to dishearten normal people and empower freaks and fanatics. It's designed to remove protections from Girls, since it is imposed UNdemocratically in K12. In fact, when parents hear about it and complain, they are attacked by propaganda. There have already been several attacks that we know of, not totally concealed by EduAdmins or the Juvi Justice System, in just the past year, on Girls.

Since Bad Actors often have Paraphilias, you can no longer say "Of course the Socialist is up to no good, Rachel is really Richard. C'mon!"

When the Leftists normalize "Intergenerational Attraction", you'll no longer be able to say "Of course there's something wrong with Biden, he sniffs the hair of underage girls!"
"So? Some people are attracted to underage girls. It's a harmless attraction, you bigot!"

"High Ground" tactics have repeatedly failed. When non-Socialists say "Whatever's Clever" and abandon the field, Socialists win a default victory.

Nature abhors a vacuum, and Socialists flood it with bullshit.

The reason we are where we are is because of the Media, Hollywood, the Tyranny of Experts changing Culture, and thus winning politically.

Politics are downstream from Culture. Lose the Culture, and no Rational Arguments will win in the Political Arena, irresistably so.

Pfizer-Sponsored NBC News Caught Lying About COVID and Kids
On a recent episode of “The Jimmy Dore Show,” comedian and political commentator Jimmy Dore called out Dr. John Torres, medical correspondent for NBC News, for overplaying COVID’s risk to children.

On a recent episode of “The Jimmy Dore Show,” comedian and political commentator Jimmy Dore accused Dr. John Torres, medical correspondent for NBC News, for overplaying COVID’s risk to children and reporting incorrect statistics.

“This is a story about how money influences corporate news,” Dore said, before playing a compilation video of Pfizer sponsoring newscasts on CNN, NBC, CBS, Good Morning America, ABC News, MSNBC and 60 Minutes.

“So what’s the result of all that Pfizer money going to newsrooms?” Dore asked. “Here’s how they’re going to report on the Pfizer vaccine being authorized for children who are at almost zero risk, according to the science.”

Dore played a clip of Torres on NBC’s Today show explaining why parents should vaccinate their children with Pfizer’s vaccine.

Torres recited statistics — including the statement that “there have been 146,000 COVID deaths [among children]” — that aren’t corroborated by any government health agency.

“I don’t know where this guy is getting his information but it’s certainly wrong,” Dore explained.

Dore pointed to an Oct. 8 article in USA TODAY which cited data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showing “fewer than 700 children have died of COVID-19 during the course of the pandemic.”

“John Torres of NBC just told us 146,000,” Dore said. “Whenever they make an error it always happens to be in the pro-Pfizer direction.”

Dore suggested they “want to scare you to death” so you get your kid the Pfizer shot. “Despite the risk being almost immeasurable, they are trying to tell you that the risk is urgent,” Dore said.

“According to the CDC,” Dore said, citing an article in New York Magazine’s Intelligencer, “the child mortality risk from COVID is actually lower than the flu.”

“But would you know that from watching NBC’s coverage?” asked Dore.

Despicable.

I’ll tell you all someday about what I do for work, but the Pantifa stuff wasn’t overblown by the media. I’ve seen multiple videos of what happened in Downtown LA about what the nerdy bitch boys in Pantifa were doing an NONE of those made even the local media coverage. They should have been national front page news but the media intentionally buried that story. I’m talking individuals throwing molatov cocktails at cops, running wild and the police making zero effort to stop it as the leftist asshole Eric Garcetti, mayor of LA, wouldn’t allow the police to intervene. Citizens swarmed and yanked from cars.

Another buried story was local cities blocking access on major streets so that the rioters wouldn’t enter those cities. One local city made 24 arrests overnight on the first weekend of the riots(the Sunday night) and multiple of those arrests were preventative. That city had information of riot/looting coming to a major shopping and commercial center and they actually stopped it cold. Not a peep in the local media.

The media manipulates in many ways and it’s not always what you think.

Here are a few quotes from the interview:

On threats from the press (Dr. Alexander):

A reporter with the Washington Post told me, “We work as a pack. When we come at you [for our stories] we know there’s a small number of you who are going to commit suicide. We know you’ll take your life. It’s par for the course. We’re going to burn your life down. By the time we’re finished with you, you won’t be able to get a job. We’ll strip you of your home. We’ll do anything we need to do to turn you into a pauper. And if you survive all of that, we’ll write in such a way that we’ll incite some sick nut job to come after you, stalk you and your family, and harm you.”

Conflict of Interest? Bill Gates Gave $319 Million to Major Media Outlets, Documents Reveal
According to MintPress News, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation donated at least $319 million to fund media projects at hundreds of organizations including CNN, NBC, NPR, PBS and The Atlantic, raising questions about those news outlets’ ability to report objectively on Gates and his work.

By now the double standards and missteps of those who want to “flag,” ban and de-platform their way to a healthier democracy are well established. The Wuhan Lab Leak hypothesis was a dangerous, racist conspiracy theory until, well, the evidence suggested otherwise. The acquiescence of many in big tech and at-large media outlets to hardline trans ideology prevents the statement of obvious scientific fact.

The 'Destroy Back Harder' inflation and Communist graft bill passed by Congress also contained a huge cash bolus for their propaganda organs in the MSM, over a hundred million, a scholarship grant if you will for their useful idiot mendaciousness.

They can no longer stand on their own two feet because people are not tuning in, so they have to be heavily subsidized now to keep the lies alive.

I was censored by an audiophile site, of all things, for mentioning Covid idiocy and travel. I hate myself for starting to feel schadenfreude over some of the useful idiots who will be suffering vaccine consequences. I understand that they are just unfortunate, beguiled human beings, but when they get militant and become part of the problem or even paid off, compassion tends to dry up.

One doctor who had an audiophile event at his home required masks, vaccine passports, and temperature readings before allowing people in. I find the doctors who should know better some of the strangest examples of the brainwashing. However, many are making a killing (literally) off of this, so I suppose the belief systems follow the profit motives.

Another buried story was local cities blocking access on major streets so that the rioters wouldn’t enter those cities.

The city of Paramount wisely put up K-rails blocking the bridges over the 710 freeway/LA river corridor that mark the city limits, right before Compton on the other side lit up during the Rodney King riots. This saved the city untold millions in destruction and multiples of that if citizens and businesses had fled a decimated, dangerous city afterward. Didn't make big news but I witnessed this. With East blocked, Compton spread West burning a Costco and many smaller buildings in Gardena, and South to burn a DMV and numerous other buildings in Long Beach.

https://babylonbee.com/news/media-found-guilty-on-all-counts

KENOSHA, WI—In a verdict that surprised both the prosecution, defense, and judge, the jury for the Rittenhouse trial declared that the Media be found guilty on all counts.

The courtroom fell silent as the jury foreman stood to read the verdict, “We the jury find the media guilty on all counts, including the egregious use of its influence to lie to the American people.”

The jury then listed guilty verdicts for the following allegations:

Painting an innocent American teenager as a white supremacist terrorist.
Painting violent, communist criminals as peaceful, innocent victims.
Using its influence to sow painful divisions in the greatest nation on Earth.
Using minorities as pawns in race-baiting schemes just for ratings.
Inciting violence on vulnerable neighborhoods and minority-owned businesses.
Giving an entire show to Brian Stelter.
Upon hearing the verdicts, the judge summarily sentenced the Media to continue its inevitable decline in viewership and trust, until they either strive for objective journalism, or disappear entirely.

Following the verdicts and sentencing, the Media immediately reported to the American people that a murderous white supremacist terrorist was set free, given a KKK outfit and bazooka, and told to kill, kill, kill.

Black, White Americans Join Hands Around Common Cause Of Launching Journalists Into The Sun

U.S.—In a rare moment of national unity, Americans of all races, backgrounds, and creeds have joined hands together across America around the shared belief that we should immediately launch all mainstream media journalists directly into the sun.

"I know we don't agree on much these days, but this one's a no-brainer," said Dale Smith, a white guy from Townville, Tennessee. "I'm honestly not sure why we didn't do this a long time ago."

Darnell Woodson, a black small business owner from Baltimore, agrees. "Wait a minute! We haven't launched all the lyin' journalists into the sun yet? Well, no wonder things are so bad," he said.

Citizens, experts, and policymakers all agree that gathering up the people most responsible for the racial hatred and division in this country over the last decade, loading them all into a rocket, and launching them straight into the nearest star as quickly as possible is the most effective thing we can do to promote healing in America.

Elon Musk has announced he will dedicate one of his very own SpaceX rockets for the task. He will also dedicate a second rocket large enough to hold Brian Stelter.

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/censorship-omidyar-group-whistleblower-aid-facebook

Story at-a-glance:

The International Grand Committee on Disinformation (IGCD) consists of “an international array of legislators, policy advisers and other experts” who work together “to forge international alliances that bring shared, effective strategies into the battle against online disinformation.”
The founders of the IGCD are four members of the British and Canadian Parliaments, including British Member of Parliament (MP) Damian Collins, who is also on the board of the Centers for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH). The CCDH fabricates reports that are then used to strip people of their freedom of speech rights.
Logistics for the IGCD are provided by the Reset Initiative (a not-so-subtle reminder that censorship is a requirement for The Great Reset), which is part of The Omidyar Group of philanthropies.
Omidyar funds Whistleblower Aid, the legal counsel for the fake Facebook “whistleblower” Frances Haugen, who has testified before U.S., French, British and EU lawmakers, calling for more censorship.
CCDH chairman Simon Clark also has ties to Arabella Advisors, the most powerful dark money lobbying group in the U.S.
If you suspected censorship was being coordinated on a global scale, you’d be right.

https://babylonbee.com/news/racist-joe-biden-bans-travel-trom-africa

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Americans are appalled after learning the racist President Biden has banned travel from 8 African countries.

"If you are able to travel freely to America, then you ain't black," said Biden. "We have a new COVID variant or something like that. All the Africans have gotta stay out."

Voters are reporting that they are devastated to learn Biden is just as racist as Trump was when he restricted travel from China. Just like when Trump did it, Biden's racist travel ban is obviously an attempt to keep people of color out of our country while using COVID as an excuse. Sad!

Civil rights groups and various liberal organizations have not yet come out and condemned the racist, xenophobic travel ban as they did during the Trump travel ban. This is probably just because they forgot, or maybe they had too many Thanksgiving leftovers and fell asleep.

2:58 PM · Nov 27, 2021

https://greenwald.substack.com/p/the-cynical-and-dangerous-weaponization

Within hours of the August 25, 2020, shootings in Kenosha, Wisconsin — not days, but hours — it was decreed as unquestioned fact in mainstream political and media circles that the shooter, Kyle Rittenhouse, was a "white supremacist.” Over the next fifteen months, up to and including his acquittal by a jury of his peers on all charges, this label was applied to him more times than one can count by corporate media outlets as though it were proven fact. Indeed, that Rittenhouse was a "white supremacist” was deemed so unquestionably true that questioning it was cast as evidence of one's own racist inclinations (defending a white supremacist).

Yet all along, there was never any substantial evidence, let alone convincing proof, that it was true. This fact is, or at least should be, an extraordinary, even scandalous, event: a 17-year-old was widely vilified as being a white supremacist by a union of national media and major politicians despite there being no evidence to support the accusation. Yet it took his acquittal by a jury who heard all the evidence and testimony for parts of the corporate press to finally summon the courage to point out that what had been Gospel about Rittenhouse for the last fifteen months was, in fact, utterly baseless.

Similar cookie cutter articles appear about other locations. They always are meant to blame the unvaccinated for the situation and to scare people into getting vaccinated.

The problem is that these articles are lies.

You can easily look at the situation and usually you can show that

the number of hospitalized Covid patients is similar to last year (despite “safe and effective” vaccines)

the number of non-Covid patients (usually sick vaccinated people) is about 20-30% higher than a year ago

shortage of staff is due to firings of unvaccinated workers
