ALL the non-right media need to fight back and not let these fuckers define the argument.
RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!

She is lying through her teeth..

SAY IT!!

If the media does NOT fight back now, it is over...

She is worse. She's like a religious fanatic automaton.

..

hucksters for Jebus.

The religious fascist really do want to destroy our freedom of speech, press and our freedom.

attack Americas democracy. IMO

Newsweek is running a story right now about how CNN is "getting nervous" about running any story that implies Trump has Russia connections and future stories will be tightly controlled. They have to be approved by the top execs.

This could not come at a worse time. Trump sees the retraction as all the ammo he and his minionazis need to declare CNN fake news and discredit them entirely.

We are rapidly becoming an authoritarian state.

That is all.

because I realize how defeatist it sounds, but I was just venting frustration at the feeling that too many in the press are not pushing back as hard and fast as they should.

Some are, but not enough. I'm worried that too many people, in the press and the country, are underestimating the authoritation intentions of this regime.

I hope they don't back off.

I've seen anti-CNN threads on every sports message board today. They've been in supply for months but today it reached new volume and intensity. Those sports forums are dominated by angry white males, as I've mentioned.

If I want to listen to a Milwaukee Brewers game, for example, I have to tune into the same network that airs Rush Limbaugh and Hannity. It drives me nuts.

Because I'm the only liberal there, or at least the only vocal one. I relish it on most occasions, because I can trounce them with a handful of sentences. They have no ammo. I call them SAMs (Simplistic Angry Males) and they know what it means and they hate it.

There is a Dolphins site called Finheaven that used to have an overwhelmingly right wing hate filled sports forum but now that has turned around and a handful of extremely sharp liberals actually control the discussion.

That's an extreme rarity. As a USC alum I can't stomach their sports message boards because the political forums are so disgusting. Right wing hacks talking to each other.

Yeah, the radio networks are problematic. I have 6 stations as favorites both AM and FM. The local teams are covered on AM so otherwise I keep everything on FM so I won't run into the hate radio by accident.

the Badger message boards can get quite "colorful!" I have noticed the majority of Badger fans who are actually alumni (as I am) lean left, and that the right-wingers who are there are mostly Packer fans looking for something to do on Saturday.

That is why I cannot understand why The Trumper attacks CNN

Blitzed generally doesn't have them on so it's watchable.

MSNBC, much as I love Rachel Maddow, is giving entire shows to right wingers.

Has this woman, and the White House, no self-awareness, or sense of irony, at all? When trying to attack someone else for saying inaccurate things, she says "this may not be accurate, but watch it anyway". And if that video is an O'Keefe abomination, then that's even more disgraceful.

They are the dumbest, most dishonest, self-entitled pieces of garbage that ever got anywhere near a controlling office, whether a governor or a presidency.

It deserves its own thread. This woman is supposed to be a professional and knows absolutely nothing about logic or information literacy.

She may as well have been any poster on any political board:

"I don't know if it's true, but you should watch it!"

And I don't believe this was intentional irony on her part. It was either ignorance or propaganda.

and anything associated with O'Keefe is fake.

She admits she doesn't fact check, just throws it out. The problem with the O'Keefe thing is that no matter the truth, the desired outcome happened. Same as what happened to Acorn, fabrication and lies but the Republicans ran with it even after it was proven false.

I heard her say that, couldn't believe it.. Sarah Hucklebee Sandbag, she's earned that name.

I think 'the press' should stop covering the administration propaganda events and just do investigative reporting. That's the only way we'll get any facts and truth.

it's plenty my fault because I did not push back hard enough on
born-agains back in the '80's when they started coming on like
feeding time in a goldfish tank.

Now they are coming on like barracuda...

Oh shit that's huuuge!

It's a *health* producer saying he reckons the Russia stories are overblown, for the sake of ratings. He has no idea, since he doesn't work in that area. It means fuck all, apart from CNN employees having the self-awareness that they chase ratings.

work for FOX News....... example ,,,, just this morning i hear one tell a Congress Person they were being hyperbolic for saying that people without health insurance are more likely to die....

Fox News Lite.

Don't pay for that crap.

.

and its gotten us EXACTLY to the place she described--dangerous for america (as is made absolutlely fucking obvious by the fact that Donald Trump is the goddamned president).

But since she can't come out and say 'good job team, thanks for the agitprop and bringing The Suckers onboard' all they have is Projection writ large.

Trying to accuse the profit-margin-driven-media of making their pennies from lying to people, is only going to piss them off and drive them to make those pennies by telling the truth that much harder and better (i think Olbermann is correct about this, even if it will take some time). This dumbass probably just gaslighted herself into a propane factory and doesn't realize her boss likes to solve problems with a fucking blowtorch hahahahah.

he spews insanity. This disgusting person is a true believer.

Could he have been any more obvious? He never even asked a question. All he did was carry water for Trump and give Sister Sarah an uninterrupted lead in for her to continue with part 2 of the harangue against the free press.

Seriously, the press does not belong to Trump. If he wants nothing but fawning stenographers to write glowing testimonials extolling his lies, then he's got enough money to go out and buy an entire PR agency.

Trump may try to delay the inevitable bombshell that he is a treasonous traitor to this country, but the court of public opinion yields to the court of law, and that's where this story is headed.

For the reality message. Does a body good.


I wait each day to hear good news about the demise of the current administration!

the bloody Trump head Kathy Griffin was holding their corporate logo.

These are truly fascist times.

CNN is far from perfect. But we should be fighting any attempt to chill free speech.

Along with Paris or whatever the hell his name is. And the blonde who got into it with Charles Blow. I'm so sick of the incoherent spinning from trump apologists. It's not even entertaining. It's obvious that hosts are forced to have clowns like Paris, Lord, that racist Harry Houcke, etc. on for ratings.

I wouldn't mind if Alan Dershowitz got the axe as well.

so that is the sort of hard hitting investigative journalism these assholes value enough to bring into the mainstream

The gay agenda is a little known provision in Obamacare.

MSNBC will give them shows.

President Twunt? I know which side I'm on.

CNN is 24 hour infotainment garbage. The WH can hit the low hanging target while WaPo and Politico destroy their administration. I'm enjoying them distracting themselves.

Talk about fighting a war on many fronts.

What about the New York Times, Al Franken, Nancy Pelosi, the Washington Post, Planned Parenthood, and maybe a few outfits that prefer beheading to verbal arguments?

This is an all out war on MSM. They will look for any opening, or make them up. They don't care about anything but winning.

That MSM outlets won't just boycott reporting ANY item related to the current resident of the WH.
Blacklist the bastard I say.
He won't have a voice or bitch if they would just do it!

alternative facts.

She is accusing CNN of being inaccurate and in literally the next sentence telling everyone to watch a video which she says may be inaccurate.

It's dictatorship for dummies.
