Rolling Stone used to be a quality journal.

They were right up there with Playboy for news reporting.

But I just looked at the pictures and cartoons.

57% of Democrats trusting the media

The power of the oligarchy rests in Democrats who refuse to think.

When the left finally sees the obvious reality that the corporate press has become nothing but propaganda, then the true story of what the oligarchy has done to us all over the last year and a half for profit and power can make it into their heads. Maybe.

Again it's odd how the political left used to claim they were for the people and against corporations, but have proven themselves to be the exact opposite of that, obedient stooges for the corporate/government complex, willing to overlook any crime, even genocide, as long as they see their beloved sodomy flag or BLM logo.

But for now, the left are the brownshirts for the new fascism.

I think it is more like the Mafia. The leftists know what they are doing is wrong, but they feel they will be the ones in charge.

"Fact Checkers" now disappear videos of Nurses and MDs talking about seeing vaccinations lead to heart problems, and non-reporting to VAERS, on the grounds their professional candid observations are misleading misinformation.

Of course they do! It not only 1)Contradicts the Narrative, 2)casts aspersions on the holy vax, but it also 3)makes Democrats feel uncomfortable with the choices they’ve made!
That sort of shit is going to get censored EVERY fucking time.

After all, the oligarch owned media has already completely be-clowned themselves in shameless pandering to the wokesters and Libtards on the Left. The last thing they want is a disruption in the culling process of their intended victims at the last minute!
Why do you think they came down so hard on Nikki Minaj? Bitch was off the reservation and threatening to wake up some sleeping Libtards to turn them away from the holy vaccine!

Repost the videos here and to other sites before they get deleted.

I can archive nearly any video.

I'll setup something this weekend (if I have time) to try to handle everything.

This blew my mind: The New York Times printed Nazi propaganda that Poland had invaded Germany, and the journalist who wrote this won a Pulitzer Prize for his efforts.

Maybe US journalism has been dead a very long time.

Well, after all, Poland did annex a huge chunk of Nazi Germany post war.

excuse me miss kate, i am just a kitten and not a big important huffpo senior national editor like you, but i think maybe you have misdiagnosed this.

what you’re feeling is not probably rage.

try asking some actual humans how they all feel about people like you and what you have done to the world for the last 18 months in your pseudoscientific virtue signaling side quest to shore up failing ratings and failed political philosophies.

ask some kids who missed school and parents who lost lives and livelihoods.

i think THEN maybe you’ll understand what rage is.

https://spectatorworld.com/topic/blame-legacy-media-not-facebook-disinformation/

Now, a whistleblower has landed on the scene, buoyed by a powerful Democratic PR firm led by former Obama alum Bill Burton. A wave of media attention has crested that’s meant to once again put Facebook in the regulatory crosshairs and demand more censorship from what’s deemed to be dangerous and influential ‘misinformation’. Washington Post columnist Margaret Sullivan has even called for a new government agency to oversee how information on Facebook is shared and disseminated.

Of course, those like Sullivan want the public at large to believe that they are journalistic warriors interested only in truth and accuracy. That is false. Facebook, as it pertains to traditional legacy news outlets like the Washington Post and CNN, is a competitor, nothing more. And every hit piece they run against the social media giant should be viewed through that lens.

The legacy media views Facebook as having stolen their audience away from them. They think doing away with user-based news feeds and content sharing will put the flow of information back into their hands, where it belongs. They have so far been successful at pressuring social media platforms like Jack Dorsey’s Twitter into complying with their demands. Facebook, however, has stood up to their counter-narrative and arguments for censorship, and must therefore be dealt with.

This is a fundamental misunderstanding as to the nature of Facebook and where it derives its power from. Facebook’s power comes from its user base — almost three billion people worldwide. Whereas CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times and the Washington Post draw their power from advertisers and corporate influence. This was the main reason that audiences fled these outlets to begin with. The legacy media’s stubborn refusal to look inward at their own industry is another reason why viewers and subscribers have abandoned them.

There is no clearer example of this dynamic than the events that transpired in Del Rio, Texas, on the southern border just last week. Journalists spread the falsehood that border agents used whips to deter migrants from crossing into the country. This ‘story’ made it all the way to the White House press briefing room and even to the President himself. It triggered a supposed investigation into the Department of Homeland Security, while the agents seen in the photographs and on video were reassigned.

The photographer later said on record that no whipping of migrants had occurred. Video footage showed no such thing. It didn’t matter. Few news outlets issued corrections, apologized for spreading misinformation, and promised to do better. No congressional hearings will be held into how this dangerous misinformation spread. No blue check-verified journalist on Twitter will be held accountable for his role in spreading the false story. There will be no calls for government oversight of the New York Times to prevent such misinformation from spreading.

The real problem here is the damn press and the internet giants. The press and these tech players act to manufacture and reinforce "consensus" around selected and approved narratives. And then this is being weaponized to attack dissenters including highly qualified physicians.

Can We Really Trust Vaccine Fact Checkers?

Maybe this was posted before, but it's good.

After weeks of explaining there was no Fake White House set, Factcheckers grudgingly admit it's a set, but it's only on the other side of the White House, which somehow makes it more ... explicable?

https://nypost.com/2021/10/07/president-biden-mocked-over-fake-white-house-set/

How can we tell where it really is? I don't think we can.

I think Steven Miller and Peter Navarro have said they've been in the room many times, it's a building next to the White House.

The rumor is that the WH is basically run by Klain, Jarrett, and Obama (remotely by consultation), and Biden is pretty much exiled out of the building.

https://www.foxnews.com/media/new-york-times-massive-correction-covid-hospitalizations-children

The New York Times issued a massive correction Thursday after the liberal newspaper severely misreported the number of COVID hospitalities among children in the United States by more than 800,000.

A report headlined "A New Vaccine Strategy for Children: Just One Dose, for Now," by science and health reporter Apoorva Mandavilli, was peppered with errors before major changes were made to the story. The Times initially reported "nearly 900,000 children have been hospitalized" with COVID since the pandemic began, when the factual data in the now-corrected version is that "more than 63,000 children were hospitalized with Covid-19 from August 2020 to October 2021."

So now we have Fox News kicking the NYT's pants with the truth.

https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Aleksandr_Zinovyev

A western citizen is being brainwashed much more than a soviet citizen ever was during the era of communist propaganda. In ideology, the main thing is not the ideas, but rather the mechanisms of their distribution. The might of the Western media, for example, is incomparably greater than that of the propaganda mechanisms of the Vatican when it was at the zenith of its power. And it is not only the cinema, literature, philosophy – all the levers of influence and mechanisms used in the promulgation of culture, in its broadest sense, work in this direction. At the slightest impulse all who work in this area respond with such consistency that it is hard not to think that all orders come from a single source of power.
As quoted in Alexander Zinoviev on Stalin and the dissolution of the USSR

And this from a guy who died in 2006.
