The BBC reportedly changed quotes from a rape victim to avoid using male pronouns to refer to a transgender attacker, according to The Sunday Times.

The outlet’s diversity team reportedly wanted to avoid “misgendering” the attacker in a 2021 story about lesbian women being pressured to have sexual encounters with men who identify as transgender women, according to the Times. Some senior journalists were concerned that the BBC’s policy of using an individual’s preferred pronouns got in the way of accurate and unbiased reporting.

Ya think?

Check this Associated Press article for bias:



This was written in a piece about the Tulsa shooting, and recaps prior shootings. Notice the lie about "automatic" weapon and the race of the shooter not mentioned in the Uvalde shooting, but clearly identified the shooter as "white" in the Buffalo shooting.

Mainstream media suddenly goes dark on monkeypox after endless fear porn
Whether the virus has taken a new course, is actually just old-fashioned monkeypox, or has been tinkered with by 'Wuhanies,' one thing is for sure: we’re not being told the truth.

Someone gave the order to suppress it in the corporate media. Maybe because it's making gays look bad.

ATLANTA, GA—Citing an objective poll of everyday Americans who work as CNN executives or Democrat tacticians, CNN has announced a strategic rebranding to JAN6NN, citing the vital significance of what occurred on that fateful day in 2021.

Following the rebrand to JAN6NN, all news coverage will focus solely on Jan 6, 2021, meaning no real change will occur.

"We feel this strategic rebrand better matches our company mission to be the most trusted name in news that helps the Democratic National Committee," said JAN6NN brand advocate, Billstrom Spleeny, "Also, 516 days have passed since we ceased reporting on news unrelated to January 6, 2021, so..."

Media strategists praised JAN6NN's rebrand as the most brilliant corporate news decision since the announcement of CNN+, and predicted JAN6NN would quickly double viewerships to 348 viewers.

Because the shooter was black.

Washington Commanders Defensive Coordinator Jack Del Rio Questions Why “The Summer Of Riots, Looting, Burning, And The Destruction Of Personal Property” Is Not Discussed

John F. Trent June 8, 2022

Washington Commanders Defensive Coordinator Jack Del Rio recently took to Twitter to question why Congress does not discuss “the summer of riots” in 2020 is not discussed.

Yahoo news opened the comments a few weeks ago and it’s mostly been leftists taking a pummeling.

No factual basis on which to fight and mostly just muh trump and that’s it. They host lots of LA Times articles and it’s like shooting the broadside of the barn. The Times is nearly 100% opinion pieces at this point.

https://spectatorworld.com/topic/washington-post-great-felicia-sonmez-taylor-lorenz/

Features writer Jose A. Del Real found himself embroiled in the drama as well when he stood up for Weigel and drew Sonmez’s ire. “So I hear the Washington Post is a collegial workplace,” she tweeted, alongside a screenshot showing that Del Real had blocked her. WaPo federal government reporter Lisa Rein replied, “please stop.” ..

A closer look at the players involved offers some revelations about what’s really going on between Sonmez and the Washington Post. Sonmez is currently engaged in litigation against the Post for discrimination. In March of this year, a judge tossed Sonmez’s case but she is currently appealing it. ...

It certainly looks apparent that despite the suspension of Weigel over a simple retweet, Sonmez is trying to provoke a disciplinary action from her superiors at the Post, which she can then use as evidence of retaliation for her lawsuit in her appeal.

Lol, hire wokies and that's what you get.

The good news is that independent sites and journalists are popping up all over, publishing the truth that the captured corporate media will not print:

https://etana.substack.com/p/underground-media

Fake news alert — USA Today deletes 23 articles: A “journalist” for the Leftmedia outlet USA Today has resigned after an internal investigation revealed that she had fabricated sources and evidence for nearly two dozen of her articles. “After receiving an external correction request, USA Today audited the reporting of Gabriela Miranda,” the paper stated. Not only did Miranda fabricate sources and quotes, she “took steps to deceive investigators by producing false evidence of her news gathering.” The paper has removed all of Miranda’s offending articles from its webpage, replacing them with the message, “This story has been removed from our platforms because it does not meet our standards.” The articles in question appeared to address a wide variety of topics, including the war in Ukraine, TikTok, abortion, pop culture, and COVID. How many other Mirandas are there in the mainstream media?

Most Journalists are Scientifically Unqualified
Why does anyone rely on reporters to interpret scientific articles?

Robert W Malone MD, MS

There is an organizational paradox which enables immense power to be amassed by those who have risen to the top of the civilian scientific corps. These bureaucrats have almost unprecedented access to the public purse, are technically employed by the executive, but are also almost completely protected from accountability by the executive branch of government that is tasked with managing them- and therefore these bureaucrats are unaccountable to those who actually pay the bills for their activities (taxpayers). To the extent these administrators are able to be held to task, this accountability flows indirectly from congress. Their organizational budgets can be either enhanced or cut during following fiscal years, but otherwise they are largely protected from corrective action including termination of employment absent some major moral transgression. In a Machiavellian sense, these senior administrators function as The Prince, each federal health institute functions as a semi-autonomous city-state, and the administrators and their respective courtiers act accordingly. To complete this analogy, congress functions similar the Vatican during the 16th century, with each Prince vying for funding and power by currying favor with influential archbishops. As validation for this analogy, we have the theater observed on C-SPAN each time a minority congressperson or senator queries an indignant scientific administrator, such as has been repeatedly observed with Anthony Fauci’s haughty exchanges during congressional testimony.

Into this dysfunctional and unaccountable organizational structure comes the corporate media, which has become distorted and weaponized into a propaganda machine under the influence of multiple factors. The most overt driver of this cooptation has been that the Biden administration, through the CDC, made direct payments to nearly all major corporate media outlets while deploying a $1 billion taxpayer-funded outreach campaign designed to push only positive coverage about COVID-19 vaccines and to censor any negative coverage. With this action, the corporate media behemoth has functionally become a fusion of corporate and state-sponsored media - a public-private partnership meeting the definition of corporatist fascism. According to the Associated Press, despite the 2013 legislation that changed the U.S. Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 (also known as the Smith-Mundt Act) to allow some materials created by the U.S. Agency for Global Media to be disseminated in the U.S., under the new law it is still unlawful for government-funded media to create programming and market their content to U.S. audiences. Nevertheless, this is precisely what was done in the case of the COVID-19 vaccine campaign.

Media activism: Central to all late-regime policies, is the role press, not as mere reporter, or even advocate, but as a central political actor. They don’t so much persuade, as portray to media consumers an edited version of reality, in which the preferred regime policies are justifiable and legible. Their role is analogous to that of political police like the Stasi in Warsaw-Pact socialist regimes, except that they operate via positive rather than negative persuasion. If the DDR had decided to lock down, state security services would have enforced it. But in the democratic Federal Republic of Germany, it is rather the media who terrifies everyone into staying home.

Who are these idiots who still believe the news?

Ironically, I think it's mostly midwits that believe "mainstream news".

Someone at NPR is going to get fired for this.

https://www.mediamatters.org/tucker-carlson/tucker-carlson-claims-covid-vaccine-killing-people-and-government-and-media-are

TUCKER CARLSON: So, the question is not what the number is -- we can debate that. The question is, are we as a country or the federal agencies and is the news media making a good-faith effort to find out what it is and then to care about what is? Why wouldn't we care?

If Tylenol -- there were claims that Tylenol was causing people harm, we'd would look into it. But news organizations aren't looking into it because there's an enormous amount of pressure just to ignore it. We're not following along, of course. Everyone else is. At CNN, they're worried about reports of vaccine related injuries -- they're worried that you will hear about them. Instead, they spend most of their time daydreaming about ways to punish people who refuse to take the vaccine.

I think he could state the case better, but at least Tucker is mentioning the elephant in the room.

https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/the-tipping-point-on-vaccines-and

first a trickle, then a flood.

the focus of mainstream news on covid is shifting noticably. it’s becoming OK to call BS. and the jerseys are changing at speed.

tucker is out telling the “the vaxxed are seeing more overall deaths and worse medical outcomes overall/immune suppression/destruction” story that has been in top medical journals for months if you knew where to look. ...

guys like tucker are not around for the early innings of games like these. they jump in when the game looks like it can be a rout. ...

if i were a pfizer or modera exec right now, i’d be surfing the southby’s site for buenos aries mansions and making cash offers on someplace with a panic room.

the social mood is shifting and people who have been righteous and wrong do not lose their anger, they shift it. it leaps like lightning to a new target such that the architects of atrocity can displace blame and preserve self-regard.

“we were lied to by big pharma” is going to be the low energy path out and there is A LOT of energy here to be released.

the turn is coming where the damage is too big to hide from the middle. it starts to move fast now as it gets more and more out in the open. and fooled people are ANGRY people.

they are going to want answers. they are going want someone to blame.

and the politicians who value their hides are going to side with them for these “leaders” do not lead, they pander.

they’d happily promise a missionary in every pot if cannibalism came into vogue and they thought it would win them some swing votes.

scapegoats are needed.

they will be found.

This is spot on. Journalwhores have no clue what they are writing about. I have given a few interviews typically hear air is whistling between their ears, and I have to recheck every word they say. And this is about non-controversial topics.

BTW @Patrick can't understand why would anyone dislike your post because what Malone says there is well-known among scientists (but not perhaps among general population)

Ah, we're 1/2 there. They've become complete propaganda, now we just need to get people to realize they aren't "incompetent" but they are actively dishonest. When > 1/2 of the population realizes that "reliable sources" are actually active propaganda, we can cure the rest of the population.

It's people's misconceptions, perpetrated by the media, which is our basic problem. I have faith that in time people will be able to see and understand societies true problems, and once that is accomplished we can address them, and fix them.
