I predict that as they struggle to get people to believe the crap they broadcast, they’ll eventually jump to Very Real News. Then, Ultra Real News, eeevunnn!

Isn’t their name based on that Italian explorer Christopher Columbus. Isn’t that an affront to leftists everywhere since they are now changing Columbus Day into some native american festival?

In the Orwell novel 1984 there was the two minute hate but for the dinosaur networks they still cling to their half hour evening hates including all their medication ads.

formerly, “fake but accurate.” (the Dan Rather standard) Now, “(fake but) real.” Meaning, we really believe this whether or not it is based on fact.

If you are going to post only one link from posts like this, please post all of the links. There are others as well including another video.

Why don't you post your own damned links instead of trying to send traffic to your cheesy blog?

They aren't your videos, you had nothing to do with them and you certainly don't deserve to be rewarded for stealing them.

I’m a bit younger than Aristotle and I remember.

Today, look up the word “smarmy” in your Funk & Wagnels and you’ll find Scott Pelley’s face.

I haven’t watched CBS News since Dan Rather’s “fake, but accurate” smear campaign against President Bush in 2004. A cheesy slogan won’t bring me back. I am totally done watching the national news on any of the alphabets. They have lost me forever.

The way we should treat this is by calling it “the first attack of the media wars.”

(Headline)

“CBS launches attack against ‘fake news’ CNN by declaring itself as ‘real news’.”

When you buy fruit juice that says ‘made with real juice’ that means that while there is in fact some real fruit juice contained therein, mostly it’s sugar and water and chemicals .... Mostly Fake Juice.
