Sounds like a worthy endeavor.

I’ll believe it when Breitbart stops carrying leftist advertizers.

Just thought I'd say that this morning, Boston TV news was saying that US default is inevitable on Oct 17 unless the Republicans raise the debt ceiling.

There is much dishonesty in that claim, but I'm quite sure it puts a smile on Obama's face.

Sounds like a worthy endeavor, but it will only be viewed by people as another extreme rightest endeavor. Truth being the extreme, but as a person who has built a personal life code around truth and honesty I can tell you from experience, most people find that very extreme. I've lost friends and family over being honest and truthful with them, no matter how tactful. In everyday life people are used to being lied too. They themselves will tell small white lies and think nothing of it.(somebody in history noted this and told big lies) So to have the truth be told is shocking and extreme.

But, that is not where my mind wanders this morning in regards to this discussion. It wanders to the First Amendment. Does Freedom of the Press mean these journalists, and I use that term loosely, have the Right to push propaganda? When they present opinion pieces and interviews as news to forward an agenda is that not fraud?

Just as Freedom of Speech does have a redline (LOL), like yelling 'fire in a crowded theatre,' does Freedom of the Press? We often say the government can't censor the Press as this laymen's article notes, "In other words, the government does not have the right to try to control or block certain things from being published by the press," The First Amendment and Press Freedom.

We often say the press is carrying the progressive agenda. Does the Press have the Right to lie to the American people? In fact I'd dare say now as often is displayed the Press gets their talking points from the government and while the government may not exactly be accused of censorship, they are controlling the message from the Press.

When we here the exact same phrases used, the exact same words and meme from reporter to reporter is this not evidence of a form of censorship? And when the journalist or news agency agrees to carry this propaganda to defraud the public is this not a violation of First Amendment? The whole idea behind a Free Press isn't to just protect the Press. The amendment is there to protect, We the People, from a dishonest, controlling government.

Journalists have got themselves set up as some kind of sacred cow in American society.

AS IF they are infallible, morally superior and absolutely objective.

THAT hasn't been the case for a VERY long time.

I don't trust Breitbart or Shapiro to report the truth after they caved to the GOP establishment on presidential eligibility. The only truth Shapiro believes in is the $$$ in his bank account.

They ARE part of the mainstream media as far as I'm concerned.

Appearing on Breitbart News Sunday on Sirius XM Patriot channel 125 with Breitbart News Executive Chairman and host Stephen K. Bannon, Shapiro said those who "bankroll" and enable the mainstream media to lie and "push their agenda" must "be made aware that the American public is not going to stand for this bullshit."

If you want to find a big source bankrolling them...? Look in the mirror. If you're still paying for cable tv or satellite every month, you are putting money in the pockets of CNN and MSNBC, all of their show hosts and executives, too. These people hate you and you keep begging them to take your money to add to their piles of filthy lucre. And don't fool yourselves into thinking Fox news has your back. Most haven't picked up on it yet, but they don't agree with you...they're mocking you. But none of you will cut the cord who haven't already. 24/7 access to sports and fake reality tv is more important.

Liberals will take out the long knives for Ben Shapiro - - they don’t want citizens connecting dots...

Another thread: a reminder of what types of people we’re really dealing with - Shapiro needs to be careful:

Carry this message everywhere. Spread it far and wide.

The people who were happy to expend hundreds of Mexican lives and several Americans’ in Fast & Furious to pump up phony gun crime statistics,

the people who left 40 Americans to fend for themselves and four to die in Benghazi to avoid political embarrassment,

the people who brought down the IRS on Americans merely exercising their rights to free speech,

the people who sold out Seal Team Six to keep them silent about the bin Laden raid,

the people who threatened to arrest 80 year old WWII veterans for merely looking at their own memorial, the people who put up a Berlin wall to keep Americans out of George Washington’s house(!)

- these people will not hesitate to use their control over your health care - that you gave them - to inflict pain when it suits their political purposes.

Too much for a tagline - but it needs to be shared...
