The Media is Not Always Right

 

June 11, 2023

The ”Führer of the German people, Commander-in-Chief of the German Army, Navy & Air Force, Chancellor of the Third Reich, Herr Hitler reaped on that day at Munich the harvest of an audacious, defiant, ruthless foreign policy he had pursued for five and a half years.
He had torn the Treaty of Versailles to shreds. He had rearmed Germany to the teeth— or as close to the teeth as he was able.
He had stolen Austria before the eyes of a horrified and apparently impotent world.
All these events were shocking to nations which had defeated Germany on the battlefield only 20 years before, but nothing so terrified the world as the ruthless, methodical, Nazi-directed events which during late summer and early autumn threatened a world war over Czechoslovakia.
When without loss of blood he reduced Czechoslovakia to a German puppet state, forced a drastic revision of Europe's defensive alliances, and won a free hand for himself in Eastern Europe by getting a "hands-off" promise from powerful Britain (and later France), Adolf Hitler without doubt became 1938's Man of the Year.”

MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace dismisses Durham report: 'Whole thing' is a 'rabbit hole conspiracy' theory

 

May 16, 2023

The Deep State Propaganda Media have all been caught in the BIG LIE about Donald Trump.  Of course, they are going to make lite of the report.  They need to own it, step up and tell the truth.  But can they really tell the truth about anything anymore?

Special Counsel John Durham released a report on "Crossfire Hurricane" on Monday

MSNBC’s "Deadline: White House" discussed the 300-page report released just hours prior regarding the "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation into whether former President Trump colluded with Russia to influence the 2016 election. Durham found the investigation was marred by a "lack of analytical rigor, apparent confirmation bias, and an over-willingness to rely on information from individuals connected to political opponents."

However, a panel including former FBI agent Frank Figliuzzi and former attorney for the Mueller investigation Andrew Weissman attacked Durham and the report, insisting that it was based on "conspiracy."

AP poll: The public doesn't trust us at all

 



May 3, 2023

Wednesday is World Press Freedom Day. The Washington Post will be celebrating by hosting Antony Blinken (of all people) to discuss the importance of a free and independent press. In preparation for the event, the Associated Press put out a poll in coordination with the NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. The poll sought to measure the public’s trust in the news media and how good of a job they are doing in defending democracy. They also asked whether or not the mainstream media was contributing to the political polarization gripping the country. The results were… not good. At least not for the AP and the rest of the legacy media. Almost three-quarters of the public blame the news media for political polarization and most have very little faith in the press’ ability to “fairly and accurately” report the news. I know you’re all shocked. (/sarc)

When it comes to the news media and the impact it’s having on democracy and political polarization in the United States, Americans are likelier to say it’s doing more harm than good.

Nearly three-quarters of U.S. adults say the news media is increasing political polarization in this country, and just under half say they have little to no trust in the media’s ability to report the news fairly and accurately, according to a new survey from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights.

The poll, released before World Press Freedom Day on Wednesday, shows Americans have significant concerns about misinformation.
