Local news last night 40/29 out of Fayetville, Ar. was wall-to-wall coverage of the dimwit rally in Little Rock and beto orourke. Pretty close to the entire news cast. They managed to squeeze in weather and a bunch of pig sports.

The coverage was endless. More like a paid advertisement. I’m sure FCC monitors the equal time provisions. NOT.

Most of the idiot box is a full time dimwit demonrat love fest. Just the party propaganda machine.

Journalism. Pffft. What a joke.

Almost as if [CBS] want to use their reports to deceive, rather than inform.

Ya think?

I am sure there are a lost of losers in Iran and all of them have one thing in common. They are losers because their nation is run by Islamists that threaten the world. It has Zero to do with sanctions or President Trump!

No doubt, they are ONE group of losers. That’s what an evil, authoritarian regime does to it’s people. That these cancer victims were dependent of the “evil empire of satan” for their lives is a firm denouncement of Iran’s government, not the United States.

In fact, the purpose of a boycott is to inflict pain on the people of a country, in order to convince them to change their government.

Now, let’s see CBS apply this same thing to state boycotts by the left. How many businesses go bankrupt, putting people out of work, causing them to lose their health care coverage, and then they die because of it? All because of a boycott over bathrooms?

Yes, that’s the ticket — the left values trangender bathroom access more than the lives of women and children who are put at risk due to boycotts.

Meanwhile, they also want to boycott Israel, just because it exists and is a thorn in the side of Muslim domination.

“.... AMERICA didn’t cause this. Iranian theocratic leaders did....”

Congratulations, you have just enlightened a lot of people.....if they read it.

Wars are fought in many ways. Trade is one of them. When you fight a country with tanks or bombs, you kill people and you make them determine in the harshest manner that it is not going to improve them to fight it. It is going to hurt and concessions are the only savior. But that decision is of the attacked in that case. And there is going to be collateral damage if the attacked decides it.

We bombed factories along with air fields in Germany in WW II. We dropped the bomb at Hiroshima in WW II, then had to do it again at Nagasaki to show them what will happen in replacement of the approximate same numbers of deaths if we had to invade their country to stop their attacks. Both was the decision of their government the people allowed to represent them.

In the 1770’s we here had the same problem and changed it. They should have also. It was their decision to pay the price. And they were more aware of it than we were. They chose not to stop it.

Iran threatens to exterminate Israel and the West.

The sanctions are trying to prevent that.

Kind of dwarfs the needs of young Iranian cancer patients.

One would hop that a journalist would include things like this to add perspective.

Razamataz Tyab? Ask me if I care. Their cancer is Iran’s problem. Not the problem of the U.S. taxpayers. Bring it up with your mullahs. Barry provided them with more “disposable income” than they’ll ever need in this lifetime.

There is a first amendment. It doesn’t separate types of journalism. The best you can do is sue them for slander if you can catch them slandering individuals.
Possibly a criminal indictment for inciting violence.

When the truth doesn't fit the narrative, change it.

Yup. As unfortunate as it is, the MSM did the same thing a few years ago when the invasion of Europe started and they ran story after story of the little kid that drowned and washed up on the beach. Trying to get sympathy for all the invaders and how dangerous their trips were. Once the story fell apart and we learned that: the body on the beach was staged, the guy had family living the life in the UK and Canada and didn’t need to use a smuggler, and some speculation that the kid was murdered, the story quickly went away.

For as much noise as the Left makes, it really seems to me like they’re fading and fading fast. People are sick of their sh*t. So, they are grasping at any straw they can.
