This is what a media matters/George Soros disinformation campaign looks like. Yes, this is a script to be read by stations owned by Sinclair broadcasting, which controls a lot of local stations, but the script is exactly what you would expect a top down directive to news readers to look like, regardless of any bias or ‘mind control’. The reason this campaign is focusing on this video is to sow distrust, not to bring down corruption.
The aim of this campaign is to cause distrust in local news stations akin to the distrust local news watchers have for national cable news stations like CNN. Sinclair broadcasting committed the sin of not being sufficiently left wing, so it must be brought down.
Reject this contrived narrative. Most local media is controlled by national conglomerates, and most of them are left wing in their bias. Sinclair is being targeted because it isn’t parroting the anti-trump message. Comcast, Disney, Jeff Bezos, Berkshire Hathaway, Clear Channel, etc all get a pass on this same tactic because they want you to vote the ‘correct way’. Make up your own mind based on the content presented, not gimmicks.
The local news I’ve seen on Sinclair TV stations do indeed obnoxiously parrot CNN/MSNBC/NYT, et al.
FReepers, have you noticed Sinclair stations in your market being less hostile to the President than other stations?
So you trust the local news stations? LOLOL
If this is an anti=Sinclair effort it is a total failure.
The reality is there is a meta-message.
You heard of those, right? The message about the message. The stuff McLuhan used to write about before everyone forgot who he was?
Virtually all media talking heads repeat the same stupid Mockingbird propaganda—Sinclair or otherwise.
Spell it slowly—M E T A M E S S A G E.
Remember the word—it comes in handy sometimes. :-)
