Happened to be at my non-usual place for a manicure; they were blasting CNN and some CBS talk show with a bunch of clams on it called "The Talk" or some such tripe.

If they have to advertise that they are “real news” than they’re telling everyone that’s the last thing they are.

It’s real news because the Texas Air National Guard says it is.

One problem with liberals, is that they think everyone was born yesterday.

CBS is the same network that pushed the slanderous fake news about George Bush’s Air National Guard service.

Now we are supposed to just forget that event ever occurred.

On the eve of the 2004 presidential election, “newsman” Dan Rather, just by coincidence reported on a sensational story, claiming that Bush was given an illegal deferment from serving in Vietnam.

CBS and their anchor were explicitly trying to take down a sitting US president with FAKE NEWS. Dan Rather and Mary Mapes were eventually fired, AFTER Bush won reelection but in reality many, many more should have gone to prison.

In my opinion, Rather and Mapes are equivalent to the Rosenbergs and should have been summarily executed.

Reminds me of this old late night commercial where you could buy “real faux diamonds”.

Good direction with the advertising, but will they truly change and report the news?
