If you peddle perversion or other intolerable nonsense, I will reach for the remote.

The main stream media committed suicide through it’s disingenuous, lying, fake reporting.

You always knew Walter Cronkite was going to stab you in the back.

You just never knew when.

(I prefer in my face bias and lying. At least I know where I stand—they hate me every minute of every day.)

Lesley was married to writer Aaron Latham. He died in 2022.

Aaron contributed articles to Rolling Stone, Esquire, Talk, and the NYT. He cowrote the script for Urban Cowboy with James Bridges.

“...why your business is dying is your treatment of Donald Trump on his “60 Minutes” appearance with you.”

That’s what I was gonna say. Her bitchy contradictions to the things he said, KNOWING full well what she was saying were lies... She is one of the murderers of the MSM. And the 60 Minutes thing wasn’t the the first time she pulled that sh!t.

They ALL did it. What ... did they think it could go on forever? Hubris!

Media elites like her cannot believe they’ve lost all credibility.

They destroyed themselves.

I could never stomach Stahl. Her arrogance in this video alone is enough to make a person want to vomit. Ripping those glasses off her nose and stepping on them would certainly be a temptation.

And the other old leftist bat thinking legacy media is so essential. Essential to what? Propping up the communists ruining the country?

If they’d climb off their high horse and report the unbiased truth and root out actual evil, they would not be on the decline. The problem is they have become the evil they should be reporting on.

They just can't give up the "fame" and retire.

Its dead only if you let it die because you refuse to report news objectively.

It is not just the MSM. It is network and cable TV.
Everything is going to Streaming.
No one watches any network television anymore except sporting events like the NFL. Even with that the Thursday night and Sunday night are Streaming.

Leslie Stahl should have wrapped up her career years ago. She's been around way too long. Several years back she interviewed Mike Wallace (after he retired) at his home on eastern Long Island. She asked him what prompted his retirement? He replied that he felt it was time to wrap it up after a long successful career as a journalist. More importantly, to recognize that it was time to fade away into the sunset. My take, on his comment, was that he was subtly prompting Leslie to perhaps follow his lead.

The MSM has a natural advantage that I can listen to audio and do other things around the house.

I also like large videos of events quickly presented. However, I gave up on Lester Holt’s NBC Nightly News about eight years ago.

Perversion and propaganda will result in remote activity.

“It is not just the MSM. It is network and cable TV.”

I refer to all of that claptrap as MSM. Technically, I’m probably wrong.

It took a long time for the MSM to destroy the trust citizens had in them. But they kept lying and pushing one side - and it happened.

Even democrats are starting to doubt them.
