We’re in a crisis. If you catch a “journalist” lying report it. See something, say something

This is not a time for sunshine patriots or submissive consumers of fakenews. When you catch a journalist in flagrant bias, blow the whistle. Call the editor. Make a stink. Don’t sit back and take it

Oh come on. Everything they say is a lie, 24/7. We all know it, and so do they.

Local TV and print news reporters are usually the idiot cousins of their left-wing betters in the national media. They also often stupidly parrot the talking points and slogans that the national mainstream media gives them.

If you can stomach it - go on Twitter or their comments page, and use that to blast the LOCAL news media when they do this. Your commentary will be read, and it will have a much greater impact

Think locally, act locally.

Was gonna say. If I had to call an editor every time I saw a lie in the media I’d never put down the phone.

You are preaching to the choir here. Why need to cry to the editors when they themselves are the Masters of Liars.

Tecumseh Sherman was right. All reporters should be shot as they themselves are the enemy.

“If I had my choice I would kill every reporter in the world, but I am sure we would be getting reports from Hell before breakfast.” - William Tecumseh Sherman

Shep Smith minutes appeared to go really over the top, his eyes bulging. Was kind of funny as he ranted over Napolitano being called a fool.

He's badly in need of another hurricane to cover.

If we did that, there would not be time to do anything else.

B-but to do that, we’d have to...gulp...watch MSM news. Rush has staff to do that, and he pays them well. I won’t do it. Not even for pay. Even tuning in accidentally to them makes me want to hurl.

I wish we could just shoot them on sight, as every active terrorist should be.
