I also read the Guardian, but let’s not pretend that it covers US government issues or US domestic politics with any depth whatsoever. You’re helping to kill the single best mass media source of information for information on what’s happening with the US government. How could that possibly backfire? Truly shortsighted and foolish. |
I am too. I encourage you to donate/subscribe to The Guardian- even the $1 level helps conveys much needed appreciation. |
He is a comic. He should not have been canceled. We all know how divisive and ridiculous this administration is. End of story. |
But it's not that anymore. It used to be, but no longer. |
Yep, stock down 35% YTD. |
The DIS cancellation site was crashing last night because too many people were trying to cancel at the same time. |
You sound dumb, so I’ll throw you a bone. This is a case of the president of the United hurt feelings pressuring his appointee at the FTC to pressure the network to remove someone because he disagrees with the messaging. This is government censorship. Thank you for your attention in this matter! |
Now that humor is policed maybe we all will get really very well versed in irony and layered, subtle references. You know the stuff that is really funny instead of brush and crude stuff most people find funny. One has had to have lived in an authoritarian country to understand how powerful subtle humor can be.

Since when is Disney part of the government? |
You are defining winning as upsetting liberals rather than achieving any of the goals that are the fundamentals of conservatism. Reagan, Bush, and all of my strong Republican ancestors are spinning in their graves. |
What truly free press can we switch our payments? Democracy doesn't win if no media is left standing to shine a light on reality. Where is the good, ethical journalism these days? |
DP: When the government compels a private actor to do something, the government is acting. It's a legal doctrine. |
Sure it is. I have a challenge: go check out the headlines on the homepage right now and honestly assess whether (a) the coverage is valuable, and (b) whether you’d likely have seen that news in the Guardian. Notable items: -breakdown of the CDC testimony -proposal to change vax schedule -free day care initiative in NM -organ donation system whistleblower -Dem funding proposal re govt shutdown -Education Dept partnering with conservative groups for civics education And on and on. This is stuff that we need desperately to have an informed citizenry. You’re cutting off your nose to spite your face. |
Disagree 100%. They are as biased as the NYT. Follow Apple News (which has a ton of newspapers/media) or independent media. Sign up for 1440 19th Street news. So many independent journalists are on IG for free and have paid Substacks. I don't need billionaires to think for me. |
