I’ve noticed KVUE has veered dramatically to the left.
Of course they were always slanted that way as all the other Austin media outlets, but KVUE has taken off their cloak of acting ‘balanced.’
They were broadcasting a live feed this past weekend of the protests that erupted into riots.
KVUE also went so far as to alert their viewers of the planned protest on Sunday from 1pm to 5pm in front of the Capitol — nothing like feeding the mob some free air time.
Can’t get any unbiased news out of uber lib Austin.

The new talking point is “silence is violence”
Shades of “Silence = Death” from ActUp
But also it hints at a backlash against anyone who supports the wrong political party/candidate in this coming election.
And if it is anything like the past election cycles, the FEC won’t pursue voter intimidation charges and the national media will ignore the threats, vandalism, and assault as “local news”.
But when Bush won, children were beat up if their parents’ voted for Bush, signage was burned and swastikas were painted if you had Republican campaign materials on your yard, etc.
None of this is new. It is just bolder in the extremism and scale.
