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.

When All The Media Narratives Collapse
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?
Great article I wish most of the posters on this board would read it and understand where Sullivan stands in our great political divide. But I bet most of them won't.
The media is tearing this country apart.

Problem is we're all susceptible to media and propaganda. There are people in this forum bought into and still believe some of the media narratives that Sullivan pointed out.

Alex Jones Loses Sandy Hook Families’ Lawsuits Over Conspiracy Theories
A Connecticut judge found InfoWars host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones liable by default in a defamation lawsuit brought by families of victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre.
Superior Court Judge Barbara Bellis said that Jones’ refusal to hand over documents and financial records rendered him liable after years of dodging court orders to surrender the papers.
“All the defendants have failed to fully and fairly comply with their discovery obligations,” Bellis said during a virtual hearing, according to CNN.
The Monday decision in the lawsuit brought by eight families comes weeks after a judge in Texas found Jones liable for damages in three other cases brought by the parents of victims who were killed in the 2012 mass shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, that claimed the lives of 20 first-graders and six educators. The gunman, 20-year-old Adam Lanza, turned the gun on himself after the massacre.
On his show, Jones had portrayed the mass shooting as a “false flag” operation involving “crisis actors” seeking to boost gun control measures and failed to back up the bogus assertions.
Alex Jones’ Last Ditch Defense in Sandy Hook Lawsuit: Depose Hillary Clinton
After making the false claims, Jones repeatedly ignored court orders to provide evidence in the cases against him brought by the families of victims from the massacre who have accused Jones of enriching himself by spewing lies about the shooting.
In an effort to demonstrate the alleged link between Jones’ profits and his conspiracy theories about the shooting, lawyers for Sandy Hook families had requested detailed financial records and analytics that they said Jones ducked for more than two years.
Bellis concluded on Monday that Jones’ attorneys had provided only “sanitized, inaccurate” financial records and had repeatedly disregarded her rulings to supply the parents’ lawyers with more complete data, according to the Hartford Courant.

Great article I wish most of the posters on this board would read it and understand where Sullivan stands in our great political divide. But I bet most of them won't.

Read it.
Not a great article imo. Seems like Sullivan has a standard formula. Points out both sides having problems early on .. then spends the remaining 99% of the article focusing on painting the left as the ones to blame.
Rittenhouse was a vigilante right wing 17 year old who wanted confrontation and made sure he got a chance you use his gun and kill people.
Id argue having a 17 year old wanting to put himself in a situation where he could kill liberals is reflective of just how dangerous the violent rhetoric of the right and right wing media is to the impressionable, young and dumb.
Theres a lot of exploitable dumb in this country.
if you think left leaning media is the problem with Rittenhouse ... you might be knee deep in believing whatever narrative the far right is telling you to believe.
Rittenhouse is the product of right wing media.
17 year olds with AR 15s is the problem.

I can name names of people in this forum who buy into a couple of the examples Sullivan pointed out (certainly his CRT example).

Lol at u and ur CRT. So misinformed. So twisted by the right wing media. But yet you sit on your high horse pointing out folks who are misinformed.
You got a bad habit of equating opinion with knowledge.
