It is worth noting that both Disqus and Fakebook CENSOR any mention of a website, www.CodeIsFreeSpeech.com that provides FREE downloads of 3D-printable firearm blueprints. And, since Facebook/Disqus logins are so prevalent for posting commentary across the Internet, they are very effectively suppressing this “Forbidden Knowledge” almost EVERYWHERE. Please go to the website, download some or all 10 of the free blueprints, and then, repost it to your friends and across the Internet, to the extent you can. Strike a BLOW against Fakebook and judicial CENSORSHIP! Support TWO amendments at once, the First and the Second!

The instigators are saying that the entire "free" press should say the same thing. Sounds like collusion, and defeats the purpose of a "free" press in the first place. These instigator should stick to wearing anatomy-shaped hats and howling at the moon.

Even better, liberals should limit the indulgence of their fantasy lives to internet porn and not interfere with the real world. That way, those of us who live in the real world would not have to deal with their shattered fantasies.

This brilliant plan would illustrate how the fake news is Monolithic.

Mike W was known as Mike Malice during his CBS years.

These are corporations.

If they were a Big Oil corporation, they'd be accused of anti-trust price gouging collusion.

Why isn't anti-competitive story-coordination also an anti-trust collusion to news corporations that cheat their stockholders out of a competitive product in the marketplace?

https://www.nytimes.com/1982/01/12/arts/wallace-taped-in-ethnic-remark.html

Neither Mr. Wallace nor bank executives would confirm the substance of the remark, but according to others present, the exchange began when one person in the room said about the people who were reportedly defrauded, ‘’I wonder why they sign those contracts without reading them.’’ ‘Watermelon and Tacos’

Mr. Wallace reportedly replied, ‘’They’re probably too busy eating their watermelon and tacos.’’

Mr. Wallace insisted, however, that the remark was made in a casual way off the record and was partly intended to elicit any possible ‘’latent racist’’ views on the part of the bank executive he was interviewing. The remark was reported in an article in yesterday’s Los Angeles Times.

The executive producer of ‘’60 Minutes,’’ Don Hewitt, expressed support yesterday for Mr. Wallace. ‘’Like almost everyone else in America, Mike sometimes indulges himself in ethnic humor,’’ Don Hewitt. ‘’It has been my experience that the people with the least bias sometimes tend to do that. He is not a man who is ethnically biased, and I would defy anyone to prove otherwise.’’


In 1998 (or before?) I’d heard/read about a Mike Wallace racist video/audio. It was referenced on WND. It was a pre-youtube world and you had to send off money for the videotape that contained the comment.

I don’t know if it referred to the same event (from 1982) or some other racist remark by Mr. Wallace.

The media doesn’t know what a dirty war really is. You are right.
A real “Dirty War” is when a (years ago) avid Globe reader slowly skips a day, then a few, then only the Sunday paper is read, then it has been about 30 years that I’ve spent any money for that “former healthy tree.”
It has also been that long since ANY of their advertisers has gotten their message to those like me.
The same holds true for the “Fake News” TV networks. I have my own way for fighting them, so do the rest of US.

They’ve been doing it since the start of Trump’s administration.

The journo-list scandal would’ve taken them down if that was the case. And they still collude on talking points.

meanwhile now they collude to block certain political programs from the marketplace (facebook, amazon, itunes, youtube, etc.).

What-if they wanted to do that to “Bob Smith” hot new music talent, playing “geebor tunes”? Not just banned from radio playlists but banned from promoting on facebook, itunes, amazon, etc? Could the industry legally do it? “We don’t have any geebor tune artists and don’t want to see it become the next big trend”. ASCAP did it to race/r&b records and hillbilly and their bastard child rock and roll and then whined about payola when BMI had all of the hits. but what if ASCAP and BMI had both refused music publishing on those songs and every pressing plant refused to stamp the records, and every distributor and store refused to handle them and the newspapers wouldn’t take ads for them. And all of these players came to this as a unanimous agreement?

“the Globe is calling for other newspapers to publish editorials denouncing Trump’s attacks on Aug. 16.”

Lol! What do they think this is? 1964?

No one reads that crap.

They’re not used to any of their political enemies treating them in the same manner that they treat their targets.

They are used to decades of slander, where the slander target just sits there and takes it. Is this the first President who has systematically and publicly told his media critics to shove it?

Trump is within his rights, and they can’t stand getting some of their own medicine. It damages the unwarranted high opinion they have of themselves.

CNN covered up torture abuse and murder under Saddam Hussein to keep their Baghdad bureau.

Google gave the US military the finger but is bowing to the whims of the Chinese Communist military.

Yes the media is in bed with the enemies of America and exhibits a double standard in their coverage every damn day.

That's an excellent point.

What happens if an entire supply chain of independent businesses all collude to exclude a class of customer?

What happens if paper distributors refuse to sell newsprint to right-leaning publications? What happens if ink manufactures refuse, or lube oil manufacturers refuse to supply the machines to keep them running?

This is like what New York states is trying to do to the NRA: refuse them banking services, insurance services, medical coverage plans, and coerce discount providers to withdraw their packages, basically starve them out of business.

It's like with the land barons of the old west, who dammed up rivers to block water flow downstream to starve out farmers to bankrupt them and take their land.

With Alex Jones, they shut down his Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Apple... At least they can't get his ISP to block him, yet...

Journalists already said they want to coordinate to block airing of Trump rallies, when will they refuse to report on ANY Republican campaign appearances, and only play up Democrat candidates so that voters only hear one side? They already hype Republican scandals like Chris Collins's insider trading scandal, but refuse to discuss Democrat scandals like Dianne Feinstein's Chinese spy, or Debbie Wasserman Schultz's Pakistani IT spies.

Pundits excuse the freedom of speech abuses of these outlets because they are private corporations; at what point to we hold these corporations to the same anti-trust practices that we hold other consumer product businesses, and demand that they stop colluding to limit the market to only their products?

The sheeple would be greatly educated if they were to learn how it is that so many in our society now believe that while it is natural that public figures are open to criticism the profession that calls itself “journalists” are not. That education would show them that the Left has fostered that erroneous belief in the sheeple in order to try to defend those who it has turned into the mouthpieces for the Left’s agendas - the “journalists”.

Spreading entirely false ex nihilo rumors and innuendo while calling it "news" makes them our de facto enemies. They are also treasonous in their breaching of the great public trust on which they venally and willfully trade with delirious abandon.

Special place in hell.

They should all write articles about how hate speech laws are violations of the First Amendment.

Based on all that we’ve had to endure from these leftist traitors, firebombing a newsroom or two would be well-deserved payback.

But the left gets away with everything. All we do is talk about the Second Amendment and how someday someone is going to cross a lie and there will be hell to pay.

Well, might I suggest that Antifa crossed that line some time ago.

And Maxine Waters and others spew incitements to violence every time they get up on a podium.

We will never defeat the left at the ballot box alone. I hate to say this, but extra-Constitutional measures will be needed to excise a political cancer that has enjoyed remarkable success using the Bill of Rights to undermine the rest of the Constitution.
