We know from Podesta’s emails that there were several propagandist authors at The Hill working directly with the dnc and Hillary’s campaign to shape their articles
No reason to think they wouldn’t be working with Perez and Slow Joe’s team now
Yes, it’s pretty dang scary
To all,
Yes, now closer to 50 years ago and Caseinpoint is correct that “Watergate” is the shift point when journalism ended and “crusading for a cause” began.
Real News
Joe Biden on Social Security
https://youtu.be/55cfBo-7L0w
and
Bernie calls out Biden on Social Security
Fact check: this simply wrong. The money will come from the general fund and be made up by not having to pay illegal aliens who will run home.
Trump promises to end Social Security as we know it.
Reality is going to end Social Security as we know it.
Trump is going to do nothing except kick the can a bit further down the road, like everyone else, and hope that it doesn't implode on his watch.
I certainly hope so. Social inSecurity as we know is a certain failure.
“Is theres anybody buying this crap anymore???”
I saw a FB posting about Trump ending SS, the woman said “I’m so afraid this is true.”
So unfortunately the sheep are still out there living in fear.
Cow, shes a cow.
45 years ago, we were lucky to get 1 out of 3 channels... even then, LOTS of snow on the screen :p
I wish we could have a moratorium on articles from this shitrag for just a day.
>> After Watergate there were many students who aspired to be Bernstein/Woodward crusaders toppling powers-that-be. I think that latter attitude is now fully flowered in todays media.<<
Sowewhere between there and here the toppling was only for Conservative leaders. One need only recall the total blank check bj was given (later extended to his old lady). And of course those same “reporters” went from looking the other way to licking the rear side under obozo.
It has become quite obvious that these days, any person or group who calls themselves “Fact Checkers” are not interested in presenting the truth, but are “checking” the facts:
as in the second definition of verb (used with object):
2: to restrain; hold in restraint or control.

Longer than that. They stopped being objective in the 1930s. Walter Duranty, anyone?
The hilarious yet sad part about all of it is the older people who still think that newspapers matter.
Quite right. They are not neutral iconoclasts. They have clearly and openly chosen sides.
So, what is Trump’s plan for replacing the inflows into the SSA? Make them up with direct transfers from the general budget? Cut benefits? Not clear to me.
