Media Once Again Playing Mind Games…FOX News Jumps In

Media Once Again Playing Mind Games…FOX News Jumps In

Comments 4 comments

NBC is prohibiting reporters from using the word “riot” in its coverage of violent outbursts in Minnesota that have occurred in response to the killing of George Floyd.“While the situation on the ground in Minneapolis is fluid, and there has been violence, it is most accurate at this time to describe what is happening there as ‘protests’-not riots,” NBC host Craig Melvin wrote on Twitter Thursday.

Okay, that’s fine, but check out FoxNews, during the hours controlled by the Christ Wallace/Chris Stirewalt liberal “News Division,” and see if anyone on Fox says “riots.”

I saw chyrons on Fox through the day that repeatedly called riots “protests.”

On Fox. Which is just CNN with fat, red-faced male anchors.

The only difference between NBC and Fox is that NBC is being transparent about its censorship/euphemism — whereas Fox gives these orders behind the scenes, and threatens to fire reporters and contributors for breaking the rules and, I’d imagine, even exposing the existance of the rules.

NBC, as biased and leftwing as it is, is clearly announcing its censorship policies here.

Is Fox doing the same? Or hiding them, because they know their audience will abandon them en masse if the truth that they’re a fundamentally progressive/neoliberal organization is permitted to come out?    keep reading….

Doubling Down On The Same Sins

Doubling Down On The Same Sins

“There is no doubt it is best to have a fair and independent press, just as there is no doubt it is best to have a sober and kind mother.

But what if the press is unfair, biased, incompetent, and lies like an actual propaganda outfit?

Wouldn’t you prefer they recognized the problem and reformed themselves?

Similarly, yes, you’d like a sober and kind mother. But what if a mother is a chronic junkie and abusive to her children? Shouldn’t she de-toxify herself both chemically and psychologically?

And if you don’t insist on that — but just babble on about how important a mother is, no matter how unmotherly she may be — aren’t you just a damn enabler to evil?

A lot of “conservatives” — Crocservatives, let’s call them — seem to be defending the media while the media still refuses to admit it’s done a damn thing wrong, and in fact is just doubling down on all its sins.”    here….

Here’s a reminder of what and who these people are.
