Any complaints are stupid considering that a bomb went off in NYC. The bottom line is that Trump was right.

Your point is a good one, though, Trump doesn’t just ‘live’ in NYC. He is extremely connected in NYC. The Fraternal Order of Police just endorsed him. He probably has forgotten more about NYC than the campaign media has ever known.

The Wile E. Coyote Trump Derangement Award will have to be shared by the entire media who made asses of themselves to attack Trump for scooping them. Ha ha ha ha.

They do announce the sports scores, true. However even with sports it highly political, thus I am skeptical. Watching the commentary on the Redskins name, BLM protests, etc., is disgusting.

Anywho, agree they are in most American minds, TOAST.

Awfully hard to pass off the total mangling of a trash container as anything LESS than a bomb explosion. Properly placed and strategically detonated, such a container explosion can cause CONSIDERABLE human carnage.

Not that here was not some collateral damage, but it could have been much, much worse.

The anarchists were just getting in a little field practice.

A much larger assault is coming, and there are some who want to do NOTHING.

The Donald has already outlined some steps that could be taken RIGHT NOW, to head off such a widespread and possibly highly coordinated attack. The events of 9/11/2001 may well pale in comparison. There are people out there that want to DESTROY whatever there is left of the territory once known as “the United States of America”. And they have plenty of enablers.

So the media spends more ink on what Trump said about the bomb than the bomb itself.
Or who planted it.

The reasoning behind the MSM correctness on sports scores is because they have no opinion that can be applied.

Reporters (journalists, press etc.. ) all wish to interject their personal opinions into each and every report. They’re even asked by news anchors what their opinion is... that is simply not reporting, that us editorializing. Which used to be a position filled by senior, tenured, experienced journalists.

Everyone has their own opinion. The problem is that in the press the editors have lost control of these self-aggrandizing and self-appointed op-ed egotists out in the field.

Reporters should be fired if they overstep their function. Then news reporting would be a much cleaner process, and therefore begin to be more accurate... just the facts, and all the facts from all sides if a story.

The media deliberately and intentionally, with full knowledge and awareness has chosen to use all its resources to promote democrats and to destroy Republicans and other normal people.

Journalism as a profession should be licensed much as the same way other professionals down to hairstylists and fingernail painters are required to attain. s we say that every right or freedom also has a responsibility, what is more responsible than truth?

Very good comprehensive summary, Pinkbell.

Hate to be a pedantic nitpicker, but “reactionary” is a poor word choice here. It means “extreme rightism or conservatism an politics” (which, unfortunately or not, does not describe Trump). It originally referred to those who reacted against the ‘gains’ of the French Revolution. What. What you meant was “too quick to react without sufficient information” or, as you say later, someone who jumped the gun.

Let’s go to the CNN tape, I do not know whether to laugh or cry

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2016/09/18/hillary-clinton-says-bombings-in-new-york-40-seconds-later-criticizes-use-of-word-bombing/

Qued up at the 28 second mark.
Hillary calls the hoorible events, both of them BOMBINGS.
Then, like good paid shills, the journalists go to their agreed narrative. Everyone, including Hillary, looks plain silly.

We can cut Hillary some slack. Hillary is either very tired or sedated, or somber. Hillary does power through to give a comment without any discernment or capability to think and remember what she is saying.

This is not surprising. During 9/11 Howard Stern had more and better information than the major media outlets. The reason for this was that he had people out on the street as a part of his usual stchick phoning in to him.

The coverage was so good that Stern dropped his format that day and went straight news. The parent organisation of Stern’s station (i think it was CBS) carried Stern beyond his slotted time.

Well, who would do the licensing and who would determine the truth? I suspect that process would be as corrupted as the current MSM messaging.

The gaslighting is obvious to all, especially Hillarys colaspe at the 911 ceremony, and now Hillary calling the tragedy a bombing, and everyone pretending she did not say bombing

Idiot reporterette on Fox saying just now - We still don’t know the facts. Trump’s temperament is what is at hand right now, being quick to call this a “bombing”. Unreal!!

One of the main things that made me hate liberals was that after every terrorist attack, the first thing they worry about is how the muslims will be treated. NOT, how the victims were. This society is fucking sick and doomed.

The Clinton/Obama/Democrat, biased print and TV media has little impact on the American voter. They get & have the information they need from many sources, and, they are “NOT” listening to you and your Clinton rants & raves. In fact, everytime you “bad mouth” Mr. Trump, he goes up higher in the political polls!!! How dumb & stupid, can you be!!!

...like the media doesn’t speculate and draw conclusions from sketchy and preliminary information?

Tea Party shooter in Aurora Colorado, anyone?

Trump “incites violence” against Hillary by discussing her position on the 2nd Amendment, anyone?

George Zimmerman being a racist for saying it was a black guy, anyone?

and the crown Richard Jewell of them all: the 1996 Olympic Square bombing in Atlanta, eh, NBC?

Appreciate you reading it. Maybe I should have said too quick to react as that’s what I meant.

The fact that WaPo and NYT have little influence outside the DC and NYC eludes themselves. They still have the illusion that their frontline stories would have ripple effect on public opinion the second day’s morning. But that is so 20 century, nobody cares newspapers nowadays, they are just empty hollow big names of the past.
