How many times have I said the media is comprised of Democratic Party operatives?

    Did you read the tweet thread?

    Ali was very specific in what Dafna Linzer was asking him to do.

    Why the lack of intellectual curiosity?

    Well, when people make empty claims about the Democratic party running media, and provide no examples and name no names, it seemed appropriate to me to do so, and point out the obvious hypocracy of the entire OP.

    When people try to deny the patently obvious...

    You guys are funny. How come no intellectual curiosity into the Mueller report?

    Who said I am not curious? I immediately looked it up and read the tweets, etc.

    Trouble is, it's half the story...and the guy who wrote the tweets himself commented on people twisting it into something it's not.

    The Trumpsters were just going on about pundits and whoever else jumping to conclusions about the "collusion" thing. 2 seconds later....collusion between NBC and the DNC!! All the proof anyone needs!!!

    If this guy blows the lid off something, or this lady, or whatever....good.

    But I see no point in making up facts and conclusions.

    Trump? Is your obsession with him so great that you bring him up in a thread where no one mentioned him?

    Plenty of Trump threads here on PF, or you can go start your own.

    Regarding media bias, we'll never hear the 'other' side of the story, as the Democratic Party operatives who pose as journalists will bury this whole issue. You expect CNN or the Washington Post to challenge one of their idealogical brethren at NBC? :roflol:

    And if I ask you a logical question re what you believe the motive of Dafna Linzer might be, you avoid said question by saying you'll wait.

    For what? Democratic Party operatives posing as journalists to challenge other Democratic Party operatives posing as journalists to reveal the 'truth'?

    This is the equivalent of a child putting their fingers in their ears and humming to avoid hearing news they wish to avoid...

    Trump has been mention numerous times, first by "Hoosier8".


    Everything you're saying is made up fake news. Just a bunch of conjured up conspiracies and bull.

    And the OP has always been wrong when stating that the media is composed of Democratic operatives.

    Do you venture out of your echo chamber?

    With "Journolist", for example, do you only read right wing stuff on what that was about?

    Or does your "intellectual curiosity" ever lead you to the other side of the coin?

    Would you prefer to have the federal government run the media?

    Then feel free to discuss Trump with him.



    Most of what we know as fake news comes from the Democratic Party operatives posing as journalists. I gave plenty examples of leftist news media bias. Feel free to challenge any of them you wish.

    But I don't think you will, as like most leftists find comfort in your echo chamber.


    I'm very familiar with the JournoList scandal and the way Ezra Klein and other leftists coordinated their reporting to favor an Obama narrative.

    There is also the LA Times refusing to release an audiotape of Obama praising an antisemite at a function. Or the 'journalist who took a photo of Obama posing for a photo with the racist Louis Farrakhan and buried it for the duration of Obama's presidency.

    There are dozens of examples.

    What leftists don't understand is that normal Americans don't live in an echo chamber, as we read the leftist mainstream newspapers as well as right wing media. Leftists, on the other hand, rarely venture out of the leftwing bubble they live in.

    Glad to see you back for another round, Jake.

    Read this, and tell me that biased journalists don't coordinate with the Democratic Party:

    Time managing editor Rick Stengel is leaving journalism to go work for the State Department, making him at least the 24th reporter to go to work for the Obama administration.

    https://www.theatlantic.com/politic...urnalist-go-work-obama-administration/310928/

    This also occurs at the state and local level; in California, where I live, it's a revolving door between McClatchy/Sacrament Bee and Democratic Party jobs.

    Uh huh, yeah you really un-rooted a terrible crime here. I mean not as big as when Ali reported on the Eric Bolling sending dirty pics scandal, which is a form of sexual harassment since they were Eric's work colleagues but yes, this minor point where the DNC leaned on a friend to delay a story an hour, man you blew the lid off of it!

    This happens all the time. And to your point, the journalist involved, who is a contributor to LIBERAL, LEFT-WING, MAINSTREAM MEDIA like huffpo, NBC, and New York magazine, uncovered the poor choice. So you basically proved how NOT corrupt journalists are. Good job!

    Everything else is corporate and profit seeking. Why are you OK with that behavior when it comes to health care, providing us with food, and airline safety and yet not OK when it comes to the news media?

    Even if it's true, I'm fine with it when we have a major RW fake news source that claims it presents "fair and balanced news" when it's (Fox) actually publishes some of the worst RW conspiracy theories and dastardly lies that are tearing this country apart. Any democratic source would be working to reverse that and bring the country back together.

    I appreciate your honesty, that you support fake news if it will benefit leftists.

    So, tell me your theory why NBC political editor Dafna Linzer called him on behalf of the Democratic National Committee?

    Ali was butt-hurt, and took to twitter to complain. Notice that no leftist news sources have reported on this?

    Why should I care? A story nearly got delayed by an hour. The question you really should be asking is why do i care about this? The answer is because it's the only thing you can find that confirms your beliefs. That's all well and good, but at the end of the day we aren't talking Watergate here.

    It's because it's not news. No one cares except a handful of people on the internet.

    Would you be upset if Trump asked Fox news to delay a news story by an hour? Would you call Fox a corrupt, arm of the GOP?
