Title: Anti gun people being laid off
Post by: groveler on June 13, 2020, 12:45:24 PM
This is a hoot!

What I read of the "Red" Star Advertiser which is mostly behind a paywall,
is so pro Democrat it is sickening.
Finally nobody is reading them anymore and they lament they
can't protect us from Tyranny!
Democrats=Tyranny!
Maybe the people can go to work for Civil Beat.
(I've been banned there).
Every time a Democrat propagandist loses a job is a good day
for Americans.

Today's mainstream media is the enemy of "THE PEOPLE."

Not necessarily enemies of the Left wing agenda-driven progressives, but to the public at large.

Without a truly honest press that adheres to journalistic principles -- among which should be integrity, personal fact-checking, and balanced, objective reporting, they knowingly or unknowingly do more harm than good.

50 years ago, when asked why focus on journalism as a career, it was to keep the government honest through sunshine and accountability.

Asked today, they say "So I can help change the country/world."  Or even, "To become famous."

A free press has protected powers and should never be used to push a political or ideological agenda.

A free press should also report the facts as they have been able to verify them, and not make the story about themselves (Jim Acosta, et al.).

Our press has devolved into a propaganda arm of one party or cause versus the others.  That is a danger to our Constitutional Republic, when one side of a story is propped up or ignored to the detriment of the truth.

Having said that, I stopped taking the Pravdatizer after my first free trial subscription ended.  The Liberal/Democrat bias and slanted coverage was too much to stomach, even in the early 1990s.

Until the Web started offering coupons online, I'd buy the sale inserts included in the Sunday paper and use the printed section to line my cats' litter boxes.  That was worth $1.50 occasionally.

Constitutional Republic?  That died a long time ago.

Its the American empire now, where the name of the game is to divide and conquer among the races, social classes, and etc. 

How else can the empire prevent the masses from stopping the illegal wars, color revolutions, regime changes, runaway printing money out of thin air to feed the ultrawealthy, and etc.?

They had their chance to go after systemic corruption but they decided to ignore it and print propaganda. Readers generally do not appreciate being lied to.
