Some thoughts on the fake news media

Don Lemon and his chums laugh it up as they mock half the country

Check out this unabashed segment of unprofessionalism from America’s primary fake news network (FNN), and one of their main “news” anchors, the incurious and intellectually lazy Don Lemon.

Keep in mind that Don Lemon markets himself as a straight news journalist, not a liberal media commentator or an opinion presenter.

He is just a journalist who does not take sides.

He just tells it like it is!

Here is Mr. journalist and his colleagues engaging in some good ol’ elitist rib tickling, thigh slapping ridicule of the people they consider themselves to be better than, at least half of the country.

This is not the first time Mr. Lemon has engaged in this behavior. Ridicule and self righteous posturing is part of his schtick. This is how he caters to his crazy left wing audience of 7.

This is how he keeps them loyal. Red meat for the base as they love to say.

Now it’s quite ok for Mr. Lemon to engage in this kind of sophomoric behavior if he chooses. Just stop pretending to be an objective journalist whose main purpose it is to be objective as he dispenses information.

Could you imagine Brett Baier, Chris Wallace, Martha MacCallum, or Bill Hemmer of Fox News engaging in this kind of behavior. Well, can you…?

There is a place for what Lemon does in the Media information business.

He just needs to be honest about what he does.

That’s all people ask.

These clowns still do not get why so many people consider them to be fake news.

Whaaat!?! MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, and the New York times are fact checking Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler to see how many lies they told during their long speeches during the impeachment trial today.

They are examining how many straw men they summoned, how much outright lies, how mischaracterizations, and even how much hateful rhetoric they both spewed.

Whaaat!?! It can’t be true. I must be deceived.

Well actually it’s not true, that only happened in a dream. These networks are too busy right now doing obeisance to Schiff to do any such thing.

Before I awoke from the dream, a reality checker reassured me that it was just a dream, and also reassured me that that kind of scrutiny is reserved exclusively for President Trump.

We do not scrutinize Democrats and go through with a fine tooth comb everything they say like we do for Trump, the fact checker said.

Man…It seemed so real though, shoulda known betta…

More white supremacy hysteria by the media

The media did everything in their power to portray the second amendment supporters hosting a rally in Virginia a few days ago as white supremacists.

In their coverage of the rally they actually had people saying that it is going to be a white supremacist rally and not a second amendment rally.

This actually happened.

They said it over and over, and over again to anyone listening. White supremacist rally, white supremacist rally, white supremacist rally…

In fact looking at the coverage of the rally, one would have thought it was a rejuvenation of the Klu Klux Klan and not just average Americans protesting their government.

White supremacist rally, white suremacist rally was the refrain. Expect violence. Militias looking to stir up trouble…rah…rah…rah!

Just like the days of the Tea Party, the rally was peaceful, uneventful for the most part and people participating in the Democratic process. The people let their voices be heard, the rally was over and everyone went back home.

Done!

It was anything but a white supremacist rally!

The damage was done though and they did not spend the same amount of effort correcting their blatant false coverage.

Just another example of the Fake News media doing what they do best.

Fakery!

This is why they are not trusted.

What if the media still had their monopoly?

Can anyone imagine if Breitbart news did not exist, or Fox News (even though Fox has their Trump haters too). What if there was no Newsbusters, or no Daily Wire, or if the Daily Caller did not exist? Imagine if the Fake news media still had their monopoly and all that we were seeing is coverage with their spin. Is it any wonder they hate Breitbart and all the other alternative sites that give us the news?

Here is the big difference though. Trump’s supporters know what they say on the Fake New networks because they have to point out the unfairness of their coverage and expose them for their fakery.

The people who watch the Fake news on the other hand do not know what is being covered on Fox etc. because they simply dismiss them as Fake news also. They do not have anything to measure against what they hear.

This is why things that Fox and Breitbart were reporting three years ago is now being reported in the NY Times and CNN like it is breaking news and their readers do not even know the difference.

On Facism, Trump and Other Stuff…

To the people who insist that Donald Trump is a Nazi, a fascist, a white supremacist etc. here are three words for you…READ A BOOK! If that is to much, here is another three words that you can try…do some research. Not because you declare Trump to be a Nazi does it mean it is so. In addition, if Trump is a white supremacist he is not very good at white supremacy. He needs to work on it some more. People use the word facism like it is some new fashionable slang term without having a clue about what facism is. They should educate themselves and stop wallowing in ignorance. They use these terms to avoid discussion of the issues at hand because if one can successfully get the label Nazi, fascist, white supremacist or whatever to stick, then further discussion of the issues become unnecessary. The good thing though is that some people actually read, dig into history and do research so perpetrators are not going to get away with revisionist use of the word Nazi or fascist except in their own echo chamber. The revisionist history about who fascists and Nazis are is not going to work.   Here is a challenge for the folks who love the term Nazi and fascist. Go do some research on that Democrat hero called Franklyn Delano Roosevelt if you want to know about American leaders who had a love affair with facism. Read about FDR advisor Rexford Guy Tugwell and his love of Italian fascism. Go read glowing reviews by the New York times and other Newspapers of the day that supported FDR and his affinity with Mussolini and fascism. Of course after the horrors of WWII these ardent supporters of fascism made every attempt to disassociate themselves from it and its proponents, and attach the term to their political opponents. See who the real fascists are even today.  Examine the practices of the left today and the Nazis. For some reason there is a lingering doubt here that many of the people who love to use the word Nazi and fascist would not dare to look at anything that upsets their narrative, but for the sake of honesty they should try.

After criticizing Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard the other day for calling the President a bi*** (Democrat privilege), she recently did something that deserves some praise. She criticized the latest trend in her party (the party of slavery, the trail of tears, Jim Crow, the Ocoee massacre, the Rosewood massacre, the Klu Klux Klan, black prison camps, Japanese Internment camps, the welfare state etc.) of using people’s religion to disqualify them from holding public office. As Rep. Gabbard pointed out “Article 6 of the U.S. Constitution clearly states that there “shall be no religious test” for anyone seeking to serve in public office.”  It is good to see a Democrat doing that which is never, ever done by calling out a members of her party for blatant, unabashed religious bigotry. Ms. Gabbard understands how dangerous a road that is to travel, and so she put the constitutional rights of citizens in front of her party. She Called out her fellow Democrats Mazie Hirono, Kamal Harris, Senotor Dianne Feinstein and every body’s favorite socialist Bernie Sander who have been strident in their attacks on some judicial nominees because of their religion. Gabbard understands that where religious freedom begins to wane people become targets for persecution, and human rights go out the window. She said “Elected leaders engaging in religion-baiting are playing with fire. They are sacrificing the well-being, peace and harmony of our country to satisfy their own political ambitions for partisan political interests,” she went on to say  “We must stand together, call out and reject religious bigotry no matter where it comes from, and fight to protect the freedoms and principles that bind us together as Americans. This trend by the Democrats will not matter to the Trump haters. They are more concerned about meanie Trump tweets.

What is the main difference between Joe Wilson who shouted “you lie” at President Obama when he was giving a speech to congress, and new Demorat star Rashida Tlaib who called President Trump a mother*****r? Well, the congressman was taken to task in the media day and night for weeks. He apologized over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over and over and…He was officially censured by the House of Representatives, his party leaders made it known in the strongest term that his behavior was unacceptable. Talk radio hosts said that  he should not have behaved in that way etc., etc., etc. On the other hand Ms. Tlaib refuses to apologize, in fact she doubled down on her comments. Members of the media actually made excuses for her behavior, some defended her. Her party did not see it fit to rebuke her for her behavior, and because of her conduct she has grown in stature, and her legend has increased. Poor Joe Wilson is probably still apologizing for shouting you lie at god. As one prominent radio host says being on the left and in the Democrat Party means never having to say you are sorry, but just in case some rare call for accountability is made, a half baked apology is all it takes for everything to be all aright again. No careers shall be ruined. Don’t doubt it. Democrat privilege you call it.

Alexandria Ocasio Cortez wants to take 70 percent of what the rich owns and redistribute it as the Government sees fit. Is it any wonder that the party of slavery thinks that it is ok to take 70 percent of what others have earned through the sweat of their own brow, the strength of their own ideas, and the the effort their own hands to be successful. Think about that for a minute! How immoral that people like Ms. Cortez thinks that she has the right to 70 percent of what people earn because she thinks that they earn too much. But what is even more alarming is that people cheer on this madness because after all, she’s sticking it to the rich. They think that a government that is 20 trillion dollars in debt is better equipped to manage the money that their citizens earn. They think that the same government that loses billions of dollars in fraud,  cronysm and corruption every single year is in position to take people’s hard earned cash to the tune of 70 percent for no other reason than that the Government thinks that they have too much. That is enough for people to vote for the ignoramiss known as Alexandria Ocasio Cortez.  What they fail to realize is that a Government that can stick it to the rich can also stick it to the poor. All they need is their own justification. It is amazing that so many Americans are embracing Socialism despite the evil history of this ideology. Tens of millions of people have literally died at the hands of Socialist Governments all over the world, but that is not enough for people to run from it. They believe the next smooth talking Socialist who promises to give the rich their comeuppance will be the one to get it right. Sick!
