I laughed when I saw that Muslim Brother Kashoggi guy was given as one of their media hero-”victims.”

The Ministry Of Propaganda isn’t feeling the love?

The wapo has killed democracy.

AND, the very next day we learn WaPo spiked the VA Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax sexual assault story.

The “Amazon” Washington Post.

That ad is just begging for a parody. Hope someone with talent takes a crack at it.

Knowlege workers are trained to understand the differences between:

- data (raw facts)
- information (data in context)
- wisdom (information with insight)

The old rule of “garbage in - garbage out still applies. Where most news outlets get it wrong is that the context used to evaluate the facts is based on their subjective liberal ideology.

- Polar vortex happening - must be global warming or climate change.
- a couple dozen people die in mass shooting - it’s because of not enough gun control
etc

Two things teed me off. One: when our nation is “threatened”, it showed a picture of the Oklahoma City bombing. Should have been 9-11. Second, Khashoggi wasn’t a journo. He was an op-ed writer who liked to poke the Saudi royal family in the eye. No reason to kill him, but he ain’t exactly Danny Pearl. Other than that, just another tech billionaire trying to buy respectability, and using an over the hill leftwing white guy to do the voiceover.

FWIW, doesn’t look like Tom Hanks was Bezos’ first choice: https://pagesix.com/2019/02/04/jeff-bezos-yanked-20-million-super-bowl-ad-for-blue-origin/

Isn’t Jeff Bezos threatening to sue the National Enquirer for publishing his texts/story about his cheating/affair? Hmmm....

The fake news mantra is leaving a mark. The WaPo’s plea for credibility is a symptom of the damage resentment of the media is inflicting. Deservedly so.

Newseum is closing. Somehow people did not want to pay $25 to enter the Shrine to USA Today.

[Obadiah]

And it hides its blatant bias behind pious mouthings about press freedom, making it seem as if journalism is somehow sacred and above reproach or criticism. Being a journalist is a calling, they claim; sort of like priests but without the celibacy requirement.

Very well said and this is exactly why the corrupt MSM are so insidious and evil. They proclaim their lies and deliberate bias are truth and that all should bow down and revere them.

I was at a Super Bowl party with other adults. Everybody just shook their heads. Something is coming, and it ain’t going to be pretty for the new left. Just sayin’.

The Washington Post is the first defendant on L. Lin Woods’ libel list for the Sandmann case.

[JimRed]

But what exactly is it that we are "knowing"? The mantra presupposes that the "facts" that we are "knowing" are delivered to readers and viewers without bias, or malice; that the media eschews the temptation to shape and manipulate public opinion to achieve a desired political end.

“It isn't so much that liberals are ignorant. It's just that they know so many things that aren't so.” ― Ronald Reagan

The ComPost helps to keep it so.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

I wonder what it says that Brett Baier had a cameo in the ad.

[Political Junkie Too]

Macaca.
