Taken down for violating editorial standards. That’s what standards are for. The non-legacy media, such as self styled “journalists” and influencers, AKA Twitter Twits, in X/Twitter generally have no standards at all. For example, the dozens of Twitter Twits that incorrectly blamed and named a former Capitol Police officer as the J6 pipe bomber nearly 100 percent have not corrected their asinine tweets or even apologized to the woman after it was found that the pipe bomber was not her but was some election denying  wingnut. The non-legacy “media” is responsible for far more disinformation/misinformation than the so called legacy media. I’ve been a long-time critic of media bias in his the news is presented, but get by the bias and you’ll usually get to the actual facts.

 

Whereby the boards last true “conservative” offers a full throated defense of CNN. 

 

Whereby the WC’s most invincibly ignorant poster proves once again that he doesn’t know WTF he’s talking about.

Not only don’t attempt to converse with me, don’t snipe either. You to ignorant and stupid to pull it off.

 

..." you to ignorant and stupid..",

Pure fcking Gilligan ...

 

 

You’re right there with him. You’re very stupid and very ignorant, Viktor. That’s in addition to being an unAmerican Russian tool.

which is why as bad and biased as legacy media can be at times...it is still much better than the alternative.

No it’s not. There are very good reasons why the FF’s mentioned the media in the First Amendment. Now, 250 years later, the media doesn’t have a fucking clue. Media’s deliberate dereliction, bias, and incompetency helped deliver to the American people three of the biggest governmental policy failures in our history; the climate crisis and green energy fiasco, the Covid panic, and the Biden mental failure coverup. There are scores of less pronounced media failures such has putting their thumb on election scales. 

Social and alternative media is way ahead of legacy media in all respects. Facts and news is reported that legacy media is too lazy to dig out, or suppresses in order to further a bias. Of course not all social media is trustworthy, but that’s okay. We can make our own decisions about what is correct. It really isn’t that difficult.

The best and the worst of both?

The traditional media (aka legacy media) has been going through a slow death as caused by several factors over the years.

Factors include cable television, computers/cell phones, social media, and the list goes on.

Today newspapers and a few major television networks have comparatively little influence.

The question at hand is now whether the body  politic is better informed and open minded to political options available to us than in the days of the traditional media.

With more media options available,  you would think so, but I have my doubts.

more media choices increases optionality but not informed views because the media is more polarizing and biased one direction or the other.

How much, again was Jim Acosta paid to propagandize his viewers....$Mil and a half?

He was not alone.

Big corporate media SOLD themselves and people know that was their choice...

Not accuracy, not credibility, certainly not the truth.

They whore journalists to drive the left narrative.

Life was certainly more simple with less media to consume and fewer ways to do so, but here we are. For nearly my entire life legacy media has had at least some bias, but it's gotten worse as time has gone on. And with alternative media out there realizing that occupying the space that legacy media mostly ignores as the best way to establish it's own foothold, the rifts between us grew exponentially larger. So yes we have a plethora of options when it comes to what we consume and how we consume it, and as such we are much more informed...yet simultaneously more misinformed.

to date, I've never had a to wear a uniform to any job i've ever worked. I mean, i did have to wear a company t shirt for the landscaping company i worked for during college in the 90's. Is business casual a uniform? 

 

And yes, I'd look better than DJT in a uniform but that's not a high bar.

I ran out of beer money in the spring of 88 and worked at Mickey D's for a semester.  I'm sure I was a dashing figure in that maroon uniform.
