Criminal Facebook Corporation Shut Down Gateway Pundit Today Because of Our Conservative Beliefs
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 3/3/2018 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 03/04/2018 8:26:18 AM PST by bitt

The Gateway Pundit (TGP) reached a record number of page views in 2017.

TGP readership hit an all-time high in 2017!

We reached more than 224 million page views in 2017. This surpassed our previous record from 2016 of 182 million page views.

We thank all our readers for all their support.

This Was Despite Unprecedented Attacks–

On the other hand, 2017 was a very challenging year for TGP. Facebook and Twitter have often altered their platforms to prevent TGP stories from being shared. They have employed far left operatives who deem which stories are acceptable and others they kill off before they go viral.

Stories like ‘Hillary is going to win in a landslide’, ‘Hillary is not sick’ or ‘Trump colluded with Russia’ are considered accurate reports. These powerful tech firms act as gatekeepers and prevent conservative content from being shared online.

In 2016 we were one of the few conservative sites that supported candidate Trump – along with Breitbart, The Drudge Report, Infowars, Zero Hedge and Conservative Treehouse. We are proud of our efforts to report the truth that led to Trump’s historic win.

In 2017 Harvard and Columbia Journalism Review found that The Gateway Pundit was the 4th most influential conservative news source in the 2016 election.

Marxist dreams come true: suppressing truth and not going to jail for it.

The way I read it, what they are saying is that when conservatives (like us) share a story from Gateway pundit on Facebook, Facebook does not show it on your friends feeds like it normally does if you share something that Facebook approves of.

It’s only a matter of time before Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Google come under FCC regulation. They are common carriers.

People should understand all these social media operations are private companies. They can censor what they please. Even done here. The danger is groupthink. Look at the lying MSM. They are directly promoting their liberal agenda through easily disproven lies and millions eat it up. As a result millions are terrified of Trump.

Agreed. The FCC needs to step in. Either that, or sue the crap out of them.

The GOP doesn’t like conservatives, either.

According to Q, a Class Action Lawsuit could be in the future cards for Twitter, Google (owner of YouTube), and Facebook.

Good thing the Tax Bill gives those same corporations Billion in corporate tax cuts (from 35% to 21%), while my taxes are going up because of loss of deductions from the same bill. Such is life.

I think they’re talking about Gateway Pundit’s Facebook page.

I still have friends and family that use it so I sort of feel I should check in once in a while, but mostly it’s not worth the cognitive dissonance and general anxiety I get from reading happy clappy nonsense from left wingers who would laugh if I got doxxed.

Marquess of Queensberry rules. The Digital Brownshirts who run these companies aren't playing by them. We shouldn't either. TIme to fight back. Through regulation. Class action lawsuits. Whatever it takes. Facebook and twitter aren't just some websites. They are huge public utilities. They need to act responsibly.

We ceded the news media, academia, the popular culture to the left. We can't afford to be shutout from social media too. A line has to be drawn somewhere. Jack Dorsey and the rest of the facist social media overlords need to learn they can't ignore half the country.

Facebook, Twitter, Google youtube prevent users from sharing stories from conservative sites. So yes the mwarxists/democrats owning Facebook etc. have shut down in a way gateway pundit because a website needs constant visitors to keep afloat.

It's like a show needs tv ratings or viewers a web site needs visitors who will click on ads or donate etc.

democrats/marxists like Zuckerberg of Facebook have a virtual monopoly on the internet.

The mass censorship that was run through on conservatives this past week was reversed in part. Dr. Corsi whose YT account was deleted was reinstated without any explanation.

FB, GOOG, Twitter seem to have overplayed their internet pogrom of conservatives. Other accounts mirrored those that were deleted, other account holders streamed content for the deleted conservatives, and there’s talk of an Internet Bill of Rights legislation.

FB, GOOG, Twitter are all deep state funded. Their attempt at censorship has boomeranged back on them and put the public in a bad mood.

They stepped in it.
