One is a rather bland American news network which contains 2 slightly left leaning hosts in the prime time period. The other is a far right propaganda network which contributed to the deaths of 700,000 Americans via their politicizing of a disease and is actively working to destabilize the United States political system.
But, again, this isn’t even remotely close to the truth. One is a news network with a slightly partisan spin the other is a propaganda network which as a matter of business strategy lies to its viewers but reports itself to be news. Surely you understand the difference do you not?
Really? Joe Scarborough is a former Republican Congressman. Nicole Wallace headed up the communication department of the George W Bush White House. With the exception of their evening programming, they’re actually pretty unbiased.
Just because Donald Trump and his cronies screams that everyone that says anything bad about him is a radical liberal communist, that doesn’t make it true. No matter how often they say it.
I wish this wasn’t true, because Joe Biden desperately needs a media outlet that leans in towards him a little bit. As it stands now, if he set up a laboratory in the White House residence and cured cancer in his spare time, all the news outlets would be talking about is how many innocent mice he killed. Even MSNBC.
I’ve actually noticed a bit of shift on Morning Joe. I’m not sure how to describe it but I’ve been turning to CBS a lot more often lately. I noticed the change about the same time as Politico changed ownership, I think.
If just feels like there’s something weird going on.
All I know is that the Religious Right likes to attack CNN as “brainwashing” people. I was told this by his wife when I tried to explain why I thought poorly of my old youth pastor’s political argument about Biden. I’m pretty sure it’s projection.
So what’s up with Kedikat in the Russia invading Ukraine thread. Given his other posting history I don’t actually think that he’s a Russian disinformation plant, and so didn’t want to post a link to his individual posts. But given the amount of fawning on Putin, and willful ignorance regarding his evil and corruption its hard to come up with an alternative explanation.
Yeah, I can see American conservatives playing Tu Quoque or saying “Well, why hasn’t Obama or Biden done anything about it”, but straight-facedly playing the Dear Leader Putin card, not to mention the Crimea Has Always Been Part of Russia card, strains credulity.
