Things that made you Facepalm today (Political Version)

[Back]

Sure, Back, I'll play along a bit longer.

"Media" would be CNN, MSNBC, Washington Times, NYT, ABC News, NBC News, etc.

Their agenda would be: "Trump and all his supporters Nazis!"

Would it be easier to say every television, cable, or print news outlet except FOX? You know who else uses the "don't believe the mass media" narrative? RT, the Russian state news outlet.

What I am getting at is that its easy to say "the media has an agenda" but when you parse down that statement it really does not hold up. Sure, certain media outlets have agendas, and you would be better off directing your criticisms directly at those you feel are pushing an agenda you disagree with instead of doing a disservice to the media in general.

I feel Breitbart, FOX, and Drudge Report have agendas, but I would not claim the "media has an agenda".

If you think the press is being to hard on Trump, remember, its their job to question and report on authority. Also remember how Trump has called out certain outlets. He has not made any friends in the media so I would not expect them to take it easy on him.

You would have to have the naivete of a 10 year old and the intellectual capacity of a 12 year old to actually believe that.

Oh hey, it's Backlash. Our champion.

Dude.. stop. Just because YOU agree with the narrative, doesn't mean there isn't a narrative. It's painfully obvious to anyone with an IQ above 45.

I think the term you're looking for is willful stupidity.

[Astray]

I don't know if you've seen this dumb fucking picture circulating but Jesus Fuck is it dumb as shit.



I fucking hate this dumb as fuck, misinforming bullshit.

In reality, it is super AIDS.

Smallpox is an adventure.

In reality, it is super AIDS.

But where is the cape for the super AIDS?

[Astray]

In reality, it is super AIDS.

You would know, patient 0.

[Methais]

Please. Have you been reading the PC lately? Notice how many posts a day are outrage from the right-wing nuts over nit picky bullshit? People are still really butt-hurt over Obama's two terms.

You mean when your side is held to the same standards that your side holds everyone else to, and then when the hypocrisy on your side is called out, it's suddenly butthurt?

People like you and PK and time4PhDildo are why Trump won and why Trump will win in 2020.

Thanks for that. It's appreciated.

Curious....what are your top 3 media outlets as far as truthfulness, accuracy, and non-bias go?
