Grocery stores are solid. So are gas stations. Customers or employees, anyone at a gas station is solid.

Really anyone from a blue collar line of work knows where to get the best news.

I really wish 1 channel, either side, came out and said we're biased as fuck, and we admit it.

Been watching some NewsMax recently. Just saw a commercial:

"No agenda, just the facts."

Lol, they definitely have an agenda (they're all conservative). Facts are at least semi-relative to how you think. I think more like they do than a democratic broadcast, doesn't mean they/me are factually correct about everything.

It's just hilarious how all of the channels pretend like they're all just reporting the news, no ulterior motives at all.

Chris Cuomo’s former boss says he sexually harassed her and posts the copy of the email he sent apologizing for it.

Big Tuck had this story 7-8 months ago and it was ignored. So the Cuomo family done right?

It's hard to get away with just about anything these days in the age of cancel culture. Unless you grab pussies, that's just fine.

Well this is a depressing but imo accurate read.

https://taibbi.substack.com/p/the-news-is-americas-new-religion

"...............News in America used to be fun to talk about, fun to joke about, interesting to think about. Now it’s an interminable bummer, because the press business has taken on characteristics of that other institution where talking, joking, and thinking aren’t allowed: church. We have two denominations, both as fact-averse as real churches, as is shown in polls about, say, pandemic attitudes, where Americans across the board consistently show they know less than they think.

Surveys found a third of Republicans think the asymptomatic don’t transmit Covid-19, or that the disease kills fewer people than the flu or car crashes. But Democrats also test out atrociously, with 41% thinking Covid-19 patients end up hospitalized over half the time — the real number is 1%-5% — while also wildly overestimating dangers to children, the percentage of Covid deaths under the age of 65, the efficacy of masks, and other issues.

This is the result of narrative-driven coverage that focuses huge amounts of resources on the wrongness of the rival faith. Blue audiences love stories about the deathbed recantations of red-state Covid deniers, some of which are real, some more dubious. A typical Fox story, meanwhile, might involve a woman who passed out and crashed into a telephone pole while wearing a mask alone in her car. Tales of each other’s stupidity are the new national religion, and especially among erstwhile liberals, we take them more seriously than any religion has been taken in the smart set in a long, long time............."

Katie Couric’s RBG Coverup

mainstream media’s credibility took another big hit this week. Katie Couric, the former co-host of NBC’s Today show, revealed in a new memoir that she chose not to air some controversial comments made to her five years ago by the sainted Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, involving RBG’s criticism of NFL players like Colin Kaepernick kneeling during the national anthem.

Couric says she was “conflicted” because she was a “big RBG fan,” so she only aired some of the harsh words RBG had for the football players refusing to stand for the national anthem. Couric confesses in her book that she “‘wanted to protect’ Ginsburg and felt that the issue of racial justice was a ‘blind spot’ for her.”


Not really surprising for the mainstream media

An amazing article documenting the msm wrong on these big stories:

2016 election. Rittenhouse. Covington. Russian collusion. Vaccines. Bounties on US soldiers. Lab-leak theory. Jussie Smollett. The Pulse shooting. The Atlanta shootings. Hunter Biden laptop. Inflation. Steele Dossier.

The MSM got every single one wrong.

In case after case, the US MSM just keeps getting it wrong.

Come in here and explain why the mainstream media got all these stories wrong and explain why you still believe anything they say?
