  • Media hysteria designed to sow fear and division

    Move on, snowflakes. The rest of America already has. When irresponsible reporting is combined with irrational reactions, it instills fear and confusion in people’s minds. That’s what the liberal media are doing to some people, because both are still stuck in a state of bitterness. Irresponsible reporting nowadays is well recognized as media bias. Some reporters and news outlets will slant the news, omit parts of a story or flat-out lie to make the story fit the political narrative they want to present.

    Apparently, New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman has never heard of the Boston Marathon bombing, the shoe bomber, the underwear bomber, the D.C. snipers, etc. New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman recently tweeted the following question:https://twitter.com/maggieNYT/status/825212767498027009“Other than San Bernardino shootings, has there been a terrorist attack involving a non-US-born attacker since 9/11?” I usually say that asking questions is a good thing, because I am very much in favor of curiosity and learning.However, for a New York Times reporter to ask such a question in the year 2017 is actually a bad thing, not a good thing. For this person with...

    A new Quinnipiac poll released last week shows more American voters support President Trump's executive order to temporarily suspend immigration from several Middle Eastern and North African countries. By a margin of 48 percent to 42 percent, voters supported "suspending immigration from terror prone regions, even if it means turning away refugees".

    In an interview with ABC News that aired earlier this week, President Donald Trump complained to anchor David Muir about the mainstream media’s lack of coverage for the March of Life. When Mr. Muir asked if Mr. Trump could hear the protesters from the progressive Women’s March on Washington from the White House, Mr. Trump responded, saying: “No, I couldn’t hear them. The crowds were large, but you will have a large crowd on Friday, too, which is mostly pro-life people. You’re going to have a lot of people coming on Friday. And I will say this, and I didn’t...

    Today’s Fake News freakout began with a buzzing swarm of headlines about “mass resignations” by the “entire senior level of management officials” at the State Department resigning in some stunning act of protest against President Trump. Before long, we learned we were talking about four people, and they did not resign, they were fired. “The State Department’s Entire Senior Management Team Just Resigned,” gasped the Washington Post, prompting a ripple of secondary headlines across mediaspace. Some of those headlines were a bit more cautious, such as the Jerusalem Post reporting that the State Department team resigned “in a possibly coordinated...

    During a Wednesday night interview with ABC, President Trump called out the media for covering a pro-abortion march but ignoring the March for Life. ABC's David Muir asked Trump if he "could hear the voices from the women’s march here in Washington?" "I couldn’t hear them, but the crowds were large," Trump responded. "You’re gonna have a large crowd on Friday, too, which is mostly pro-life people. You’re gonna have a lot of people coming on Friday, and I will say this, and I didn’t realize this, but I was told, you will have a very large crowd of people....

    As President Obama left the White House, the mainstream press was falling over itself proclaiming how popular he was. "Obama leaving office on a very high note," was a typical headline. Yet despite the media's fixation with polls, the press completely buried one of the more newsworthy poll findings — a Gallup report that came out last Friday, which took a final look at the President Obama's popularity over his eight years in office. That poll found that Obama's overall average approval rating was a dismal 47.9%. Only three presidents scored worse than Obama since Gallup started doing these surveys...

    Fox News ^ | January 24, 2017 | John R. Lott
    The headline on the front page of the Washington Post sure sounded impressive: “More than 1,100 law school professors nationwide oppose Sessions’s nomination as attorney general.” Since then, the total has increased to 1,424 faculty members from 180 law schools in 49 different states. With Senate Judiciary committee getting ready to vote on Senator Jeff Sessions’ confirmation today, the letter is being used as Exhibit A for many liberals arguing that experts view Sessions as unqualified and outside the mainstream. But with 17,080 faculty members nationwide, perhaps the real question is why there were so few signers. Only 8.3 percent...

    Dan Rather warned Americans about the Trump administration in a Facebook post on Sunday, saying these are not "normal times." The former CBS Evening news anchor targeted President Trump, adviser Kellyanne Conway and press secretary Sean Spicer for comments in the last 24 hours. "When you have a spokesperson for the president of the United States wrap up a lie in the Orwellian phrase 'alternative facts' ..." Rather wrote. "When you have a press secretary in his first appearance before the White House reporters threaten, bully, lie, and then walk out of the briefing room without the cajones to...

    """Libs float idea to stop interviewing Kellyanne Conway, altogether; she makes mincemeat of them every time""" A hallmark of fascism is to silence your critics. So it may come as no surprise that leftist “journalism professor” Jay Rosen wants to silence Kellyanne Conway, the senior adviser to President Trump, because he disagrees with her political views. kellyanne-conway red dress Leftists who claim to be pro-women often attack Kellyanne Conway’s appearance when they disagree with her views. (YouTube) Rosen said on a Recode Media podcast that the press should stop interviewing Conway because she confuses him (audio below): I don’t think...

    I saw a new Reuters article entitled "Crowd controversy: The making of an Inauguration Day photo ," which reported that the popular images to the left and right of the CNN images ( taken from this panorama view ), were taken at different times, the one on the right of President Barack Obama's first inauguration was taken at 1:27 p.m., while Reuters reported that the other one showed U.S. President Donald Trump's inauguration at 12:01 p.m. Meanwhile, the CNN image shows Trump giving his speech, and it appears a lot of people showed up. Perhaps the traffic was such that...

    "No one really listens or believes reporters anymore…low credibility and high bias have ruined the profession," says Rob in the comment section after a web piece on the "Sycophantic White House Press Corps." Obama's final press conference displayed the usual left wing bias complete with the familiar, slobbering adoration of the outgoing president. By contrast, President Trump met with cringe inducing screams, yelling, rude and disrespectful behavior at his first, pre-inauguration press conference in Trump Tower. A rather cursory search of Wikipedia reveals that, of the recent election campaign's presidential debate moderators, not one presented an advanced academic journalism degree,...

    January 24,2017 The F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, told his top agents from around the country that he had been asked by President Trump to stay on the job running the federal government’s top law enforcement agency, The New York Times reports, according to people familiar with the matter. The political fallout from this decision will make the news cycle buzz today, since Hillary Clinton, the mainstream media, and many Democrats blame Mr. Comey for her defeat, and it is not clear whether she would have kept him on had she won. But a decision to retain Mr. Comey would...
