The Great Purge Expands As CNN Sets Its Sights On Fox News’ Cable Providers
Legal Insurrection ^ | January 9, 2021 at 7:30pm | Fuzzy Slippers

CNN: “the TV companies that beam [right media] into millions of homes around the country also bear some responsibility”

The ‘never let a crisis go to waste’ crew are busily turning Wednesday’s Capitol riot into their very own Reichstag fire, using it as the premise by which to ban President Trump across social media and now, apparently, to go after cable companies for being complicit in “spreading disinformation” by giving Fox News a platform.

Lest you be (justifiably) confused by the meaning of “disinformation,” remember that it does not include years of the media and Democrats lying about Russia, Russia, Russia, and it most certainly does not include wild-eyed claims that Trump is a Russian asset. It also does not mean spreading fabulist nonsense about Trump’s response to the Wuhan coronavirus, and it definitely doesn’t mean constantly repeating proven falsehoods (Trump called all Mexicans “rapists,” Trump called actual neo-Nazis “very fine people,” and on and on.).

“Disinformation” means only one thing: anything that does not fit the Democrat narrative. The narrative changes with some frequency, so yesterday’s “fact,” may well be today’s “disinformation.”

To sort it out, just keep in mind that a lie—an absolute provable, demonstrable lie—told by anyone on the left is deemed “truth,” and the actual truth, backed up by facts, if told by anyone on the right is “disinformation,” as is any opinion, policy position, or ideology that veers from the accepted leftist stance.

The left has declared a war on “disinformation,” and that war only starts with Trump’s social media. The next target is Fox News . . . via cable service providers.

In a weird way, I hope CNN is successful. Fox News need to die for what it allowed this election cycle.

If China attacks a USN ship, which side will CNN, Twitter, and Google be on?

Fox belongs to the left now, so I don’t care what happens to it.

They won’t necessarily stop at Fox if they are successful. They are showing their raw totalitarian inclinations right now. If there were guillotines still around today, you can be sure they’d be just getting started right now.

Faux News wanted to be CNN, Jr. but they forgot CNN is pro-abortion.

Poor Fox. Ha! Fox is those idiot kids screaming “we’re on your side!” As BLM busted their windows.

They never learn, do they. No matter how much leftist @ss you kiss, you still going to get beat up.

I love how Steve Schmidt and the Lincoln Project rejects are totally on the outs on both sides of the political spectrum. No matter if Trump is inaugurated or not, guys like Schmidt and that beeyotch Nicole Wallace are going to get fired because they will no longer serve the Left's purpose.

China is not the threat. Our domestic enemies are trying to annihilate us. China just wants to do business with us.

A question could be, are our domestic enemies acting on behalf of China and/or Soros? The actions seem over the top and not reflected in polling data.

The basket of 75 million deplorables better become mentally prepared for modern-day samizdat.

Conflict of interest. Anti-trust violations?

Been watching Newsmax and OAN lately. Saw Michelle Malkin on Newsmax. Wasn't she purged from Fox for some reason? Can't remember exactly.

Not true. China’s ultimate goal is our physical land.
