Serious front page news? Really. You can cut the bias with a knife here. From WAPO today:


https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/bush-funeral-trump-sits-with-fellow-presidents-but-still-stands-alone/2018/12/05/fdc6663a-f8a3-11e8-8d64-4e79db33382f_story.html?utm_term=.79b7c50d1e35

Where is the bias? Are you disputing the events as reported?

DP. Bias means slant. A beautiful funeral service to a real American patriot and war hero, complete with touching speeches, and the WaPo finds it appropriate to focus an entire article about the funeral to dumping on Trump?

That's B.I.A.S.

So, no stories on the beautiful funeral service? Or does one article "dumping on Trump" negate other articles reporting on Bush and his legacy?

Communists and Nazis were attacking each other. It wasn't like there were just peaceful old Nazis who just wanted to go about loving democracy and democratic institutions but some mean old Communists forced them into being violent, jailing political opponents, and turning Germany into a dictatorship.

You really think commies wanted democracy and democratic institutions?
Commies love dictatorship, nanny state, and slaughter of their fellow citizens like no other form of governorship .

I didn't remotely say that. Nazis and Communists were both made up of violent, anti-democratic shitheads. I'm saying Communists weren't the cause of the Nazi's violent, anti-democratic impulses.

Fox News Analyst Quits, Calling Network a ‘Propaganda Machine’

A longtime analyst for Fox News is leaving the network, saying that he could not “in good conscience” remain with an organization that, he argued, “is now wittingly harming our system of government for profit.”

In a searing farewell note sent to colleagues on Tuesday, Ralph Peters, a Fox News strategic analyst and a retired lieutenant colonel in the United States Army, castigated the network for its coverage of President Trump and the rhetoric of its prime-time hosts.

“In my view, Fox has degenerated from providing a legitimate and much-needed outlet for conservative voices to a mere propaganda machine for a destructive and ethically ruinous administration,” Colonel Peters wrote in his message, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times.

“Over my decade with Fox, I long was proud of the association,” he added. “Now I am ashamed.”

Ah conservatives will probably read the Ralph Peters article and criticize it for coming from the New York times. What fools, rejecting real news.

Gullible fools, who think Ben Shapiro is anything but a dull simpleton, and don't realize he's almost entirely funded by the fracking billionaires Wilkeses because they find his identity politics useful.

It's historians and students of fascism and authoritarianism (Tim Snyder, Brian Klass) and experts on the Holocaust who are comparing Trump to fascists and authoritarians.

But a new essay in the New York Review of Books pointing out “troubling similarities” between the 1930s and today is different: It’s written by Christopher Browning, one of America’s most eminent and well-respected historians of the Holocaust. In it, he warns that democracy here is under serious threat, in the way that German democracy was prior to Hitler’s rise — and really could topple altogether.

And it's gullible fools, lied to by rightwing billionaires, who believe this:

Here's what Fox was covering last night. They were, frankly, covering up the Cohen and Manafort news.





This is why the Republican base is brainwashed. Fox doesn't tell them the truth about the news.

[Anonymous]

Yup, this is my experience talking to my uncle who only watches Fox.

He has no idea about the truth. I asked him about Manafort and he said “Who?”

But he can quote Fox lies chapter and verse about Hilllary and Uranium One and Foundation etc etc.

You obviously don't watch Fox. Manafort is much discussed there. Hillary and Uranium One come up occasionally. But, of course, they never come up on the other networks.

+1.

Personally I think you need to watch both CBS News or similar AND Fox News to actually be informed about what's happening on our country.

Each prioritize only the most convenient half.

If you think that, you don't understand who Rupert Murdoch is or what he has done at the NY Post, WSJ, in the UK, and in Australian media.

More evidence that CNN and MSNBC are similar (and truth-based, even though they have major flaws related to profit-seeking)

and that Fox is a propaganda outlet, designed to get votes for rightwing billionaire-friendly policies.




TrumpRussia is the biggest scandal in American history; an autocratic foreign enemy installed our president and has leverage over him. And Fox is complicit in the coverup.
