Watergate turned me off the American media, but even then they tried to project the illusion of objectivity. Today I find that even Al Jazeera is a refreshing alternative.

Mollie has no problem putting out accurate phrases describing the mainstream enemedia:

“cringe-inducing performance”
“media activists”
“the press harms the country”
“political activists”
“corrupt corporate media”
“decades-long track record of hostility”
“glee in destroying lives”
“general mendacity”
“Democrat partisan activists”
“propaganda pushers”
“corrupt actors”
“fraudulent reporters”
“hyena-like behavior”
“propagandists”

One hopes Mollie will recognize the ultimately accurate description of the fifth-column mainstream enemedia: “traitors to the United States of America.”

My question is, are they all CARD-CARRYING employees of the CIA, FBI, or BOTH?

Some of them are (CIA).

Anderson Cooper (CNN) and Maggie Haberman (NYT) come to mind.

“Full honesty will completely delete my available reservoir of four letter words, rude gestures, and otherwise deplorable responses.”

Modern day yellow journalism

Much, much worse.

Much closer to Soviet media. American Pravda.

They don’t even try to hide their agenda anymore; they’re blatant and obnoxious with it.

Soviet-style propaganda.

Except that Pravda would criticize the Politboro once in awhile just for show.

The media is the communications arm of the democrat party.

FAKE NEWS.

I would say whores but whores get paid and leave once services are rendered. I’m not sure what to call these sycophants.

If NOBODY watched them and they all got ZERO ratings, THEY WOULD STILL BE ON THE AIR!

What planet do you live on?

There are 6 basic LARGE corporations that control all the media through OWNERSHIP.

If NO ONE WATCHED they may try to stay on the air but they would have to cut staff by 70%.. maybe more.

What you may NOT realize is that the LARGER something becomes the easier it is to bring them to their knees.

EXAMPLE: If 90% of the public decided to STOP shopping at Walmart within 30 to 60 days the entire corporation would be on the brink of shutting down at least half its stores or more and would be talking about chapter 11 bankruptcy.

My analogy is based on how much food it would take DAILY to keep a small mouse alive and how MUCH it would take to keep a 2000 pound elephant alive daily.

Believe me.. if no one WATCHED the media they would KNOW immediately. Your cable box is monitored DAILY. When things start to move in the wrong direction the "neckties" get very nervous since their world is based ONLY on accruing MONEY.
