Thus, the media is accurately labeled, The Corrupt Media.
I don't know when I became "woke" but it seems that I've always questioned everything all the time....
LOL! Perhaps I have an UNhealthy dose of skeptic in me.
That’s one small bridge for Ted,
One giant fall for Mary Jo.
Yes, the press has been corrupt since before then.
I don’t trust anything I read in the mainstream media.
The press covered for JFK’s womanizing from 1960 if not before. RFK was a womanizer too.
That “no good son of a bitch” did make a couple dozen phone calls from a pay phone near the scene. It would be interesting to know to whom those calls were placed, and what was said.
One theory that I found interesting. Kennedy wasn’t driving. Recall that a cop on pateol had driven by the parked car. The story goes, he got spooked and unassed the area. Kopechne then tried to drive the car back to the party, but she was unfamiliar with the roads and ran off into the water.
Don’t tell me, tell the OP.
I was giving a single, verifiable instance not a generalization.
PS...According to SS agents I met in the late 60s, RFK was a bigger swordsman than JFK.
He was probably calling dad, lawyers and other Kennedy family fixers.
As you say . . .
<>On a base, transactional level, View co-host Joy Behar explained why liberals like her did not abandon Kennedy. On the January 5, 2016 episode, she explained that the Democratic agenda matters more than the life of Kopechne.<>
It did not take long for broadcasters to get the message. NBC, for example, announced that it was limiting broadcasts "contrary to the policies of the United States government." CBS Vice President Henry A. Bellows said that "no broadcast would be permitted over the Columbia Broadcasting System that in any way was critical of any policy of the Administration." He elaborated "that the Columbia system was at the disposal of President Roosevelt and his administration and they would permit no broadcast that did not have his approval." Local station owners and network executives alike took it for granted, as Editor and Publisher observed, that each station had "to dance to Government tunes because it is under Government license." Some dissident radio commentators, such as Father Charles Coughlin and Boake Carter, gained wide audiences. But radio as a whole was firmly pro-Roosevelt—and both Coughlin and Carter were eventually forced off the air for pushing the envelope too far.
No doubt. It would be interesting to hear those.
Deep State + UniParty: Nothing has really changed.
Left: Morality is collective, relative, and political.
Right: Morality is individual, absolute, and personal.
The left always feels free to excuse specific crimes by politically effective allies. Only when they become excess baggage (e.g., Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein) does the left disown them - and then brag for having done so.
Billy has had his two terms; Hilly will never have even one.
When Clinton was in the Oval Office, a prominent feminist defended him with the categorical denunciation, “All men are dogs.”
I still seethe at the memory of that arrogant, immoral communist slandering all decent men.
Thanks for the reminder Dean.
Well said. BTW, all Democrats are PsOS.
That's not a theory, that would have been his defense had it gone to trial.
They didn’t shoot enough Kennedys.
