Lol, "disinformation".

They need to come up with a new term for truths which damn the political left. Just calling truth "disinformation" over and over is not convincing anyone.

New CNN boss Chris Licht has issued warnings to key figures at the network, including agents of the stars and reporters, according to multiple media reports.

Licht has reportedly told top CNN hosts, including Don Lemon and Jim Acosta, that they must “tone down” their “opinionated reporting.”

Since CNN is still ultimately owned by the oligarchy, it seems that nothing significant will come of this. But at least it is an admission that there is a problem.

US intelligence services had AT&T buy Time Warner to continue financing the Establishment Narrative. This was not only through CNN, but its other production companies as well. Even AT&T didn't have the cash flow to continue the propaganda.

CNN has no value because nobody watches it anymore.

Its ads are more believable than the reporting. --- Yes, I am talking about the ones with the successful Black husband with the happy, thin, white wife.

Did Russia bomb a maternity clinic?
A German journalist dissects the video, and finds that it's just one more propaganda fantasy (like those Iraqi soldiers dumping 300+ babies out of incubators after the invasion of Kuwait)

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov denied Ukrainian claims that Russian troops had shelled an operating maternity hospital in Ukraine. The building had been used as a base by the far-right Azov Battalion of the Ukrainian National Guard, the top Russian diplomat claimed on Thursday, during a press conference in Turkey.

The hospital in question has been for days under the control of a Ukrainian paramilitary group and Moscow presented evidence of this to the UN Security Council several days ago, Lavrov said.

“The Azov Battalion and other radicals kicked out all the expectant mothers, the nurses and other staff members. It was the base of the Azov ultra-radicals,” he said, speaking after meeting his Ukrainian counterpart Dmytro Kuleba in Turkey’s Antalya.

Lavrov added that reports coming from Ukraine that contradict this were obviously meant to “manipulate global public opinion” about what is happening in the country, and he also chastised Western media for taking part in the propaganda effort.

“I have seen reports … that were really emotional. Unfortunately, the other side of the situation, which would allow one to form an objective opinion, was not given any prominence,” Lavrov said.

In January 2021, Adam Andrzejewski, founder of OpenTheBooks.com, wrote a factual article about Dr. Anthony Fauci in which he pointed out that Fauci is the highest-paid U.S. government employee. After the National Institutes of Health complained, Forbes terminated Andrzejewski’s regular column.

Pot meet kettle lol

I think I just saw one of the most insane leaps of logic on the news ten minutes ago. Guest on Fox "Russia spent lots of money to stop Fracking and oil production in the US causing the high gas prices earlier", lol WTF. Are Dems really going to blame all shit from their policies on Russia. Media pushing on all sides to escalate with Russia no good can come from this, "Media" wants to wreak/weaken Europe,Russia, and US.

edit

I found this https://www.bizpacreview.com/2022/03/15/republicans-demand-answers-on-putins-dark-money-to-enviro-groups-in-alleged-effort-to-thwart-energy-independence-1212911/

The left is funded by Russia, Dems are funded by Russia, every damn thing they said about Trump was projection.

No, the Left is funded by Wall Street and China.

However, I think China is going to backstab Wall Street/The City at the exact wrong time, which may be now.

Where's the picture? Isn't it supposed to be worth a thousand words? I want to see that "Nazi banner" with my own eyes.

Patrick says

OMG, LOOK AT THIS VERBAL DESCRIPTION OF SOME NAZI BANNER SOMEWHERE!! DEFINITE PROOF!!!!

You haven't been reading about the neo-Nazis in Ukraine yet, I assume.

There is a lot to read, if you look.

Hunter Biden’s laptop would have sunk Joe Biden’s election.

The DC newsrooms knew it. They covered it up.

This is a total crisis for the US media.

As everyone knows, the news media knows what's best for us and they always tell the truth. The only problem is that they use really big and complicated words that we simple folk just don't understand. How will you ever keep up? Well, don't worry! We prepared this special translation guide just for you, so the next time you're watching the news you'll be able to follow along!

1) "Debunked conspiracy theory" = a completely factual event that is 100% true and we don't like it

2) "This is dangerous misinformation" = we don't really agree with it but people are still sharing it

3) "Farm animal bacterial infection treatment" = penicillin

4) "Conservative panelist" = guy who once voted for Ronald Reagan, possibly by mistake

5) "Super-spreader event" = gatherings of people we don't like

6) "This is the end of democracy" = Trump said a thing

7) "Settled science" = a non-reviewed study by a possibly fictitious organization that just came out this morning

8) "Widespread outrage" = 3 people on Twitter got mad

9) "Racist statements" = literally means nothing

10) "Informal gathering of like-minded people that fosters a sense of camaraderie and community among friends and neighbors" = bread lines

11) "Zero" = anywhere from zero to several trillion

12) "Republicans pounce" = uh oh... a Democrat raped someone

13) "Mostly peaceful" = it was hyper-violent but we agree with it

14) "Racist dog whistle" = a super-secret whistle that only racists can hear and only we heard it

15) "Anonymous sources" = we totally made this up

16) "This is an apple" = this is a banana

Candace Owens Goes Viral With Response to New York Times Reporter’s Email Citing…The New York Times

Candace Owens went viral on Monday after she responded to a New York Times reporter with citations from the newspaper after the reporter seemed to suggest Owens was echoing Russian state media when she said Ukraine is corrupt.

“Received an email from The NYTimes asking for comment regarding me ‘advancing ideas that Ukraine is a corrupt country’—similar to Russian state TV,” Owens told her followers via social media. “I replied informing them that I actually got my ideas from The New York Times, and provided them links to their past articles.”

“As just one example, here is a piece from the NYT Editorial Board titled, ‘Ukraine’s Unyielding Corruption,’” the conservative host wrote, linking to the Times piece.

“I educated myself about both the neo-Nazi problem in Ukraine and the unyielding corruption by reading your newspaper, not Russian state media,” she continued. “Is there something specific I said that was different form what you guys have written in the past?”

Scroll down for Luc Montagnier’s TV appearance in late April, 2020, to report that “the coronavirus” could not have made a natural leap from bats to humankind—a finding that the “journalists” on set found most disquieting, since it went against the script they’d all been reading dutifully for several months (the same zoonotic-origin story that ends the 2010 Hollywood pandemic-flick Contagion).

In order to prop up the SARS-CoV-2 propaganda narrative, those “journalists” sputtered in protest of Montagnier’s claim exactly as these other “journalists,” the other dayl attempted to prop up the “Ukraine” propaganda narrative, in sputtering reaction to the Ukrainian woman who perturbed them all by contradicting the now-all-pervasive propaganda narrative about “Ukraine.”

What all this tells us is that the professional “journalists” in France are just as much a part of the state propaganda apparatus as their counterparts in the US, Britain, Germany, Italy, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and wherever else real journalism has been largely wiped away, and turned into its opposite.

At this point, does it really need to be shown that western journalism is propaganda? This is the Izvestia and Pravda of the west.

I'm probably out of the loop, but does anybody really not realize our news is just propaganda at this point?

No offense to older people, but I would think anybody 65 and below would have to realize this by now with the exception of maybe 18 and below. Any adult should recognize this, and I'm well aware that the boomer generation grew up with real news sources so they may not be able to readily accept the transition that happened.

You vastly underestimate the stupidity of millenials.

Everything wrong with journalism under one roof
The Atlantic’s ‘disinformation’ conference ignored the beam in their own eye

Everything wrong with journalism and our media was on display last week at the University of Chicago, where the Atlantic held what they threatened would be an annual conference on “Disinformation and the Erosion of Democracy.”

The roster at the conference included Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg, who has yet to follow up on anonymous accusations against Donald Trump that he published two years ago. According to the Atlantic, Trump called soldiers who died at Normandy “suckers and losers.” After the story was challenged, Goldberg promised more reporting and sourcing, yet nothing else was ever released.

Also appearing at the conference was Atlantic writer Anne Applebaum, who was confronted by students during a question and answer session on her prior dismissal of the Hunter Biden laptop investigation, a story that Twitter subsequently blocked. Applebaum said she still isn’t interested in the laptop, despite recent polling that shows 52 percent of the country believes it is an important story that the media attempted to suppress on the eve of a national election.

The press’s treatment of the Hunter Biden revelations was itself a massive disinformation campaign, even as White House press secretary and future MSNBC host Jen Psaki labeled it Russian disinformation. Yet Psaki has still not addressed this — and don’t expect anyone at the Atlantic to confront her about it anytime soon.
