Joe and Mika moan: “dangerous to our democracy,” “chilling,” “heartbreaking,” “Pravda-style.”
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
The mashup was quite an interesting video.
Can’t have the serfs thinking for themselves.
I saw that live several days ago. I thought “why am I not watching this channel instead of the NBC affiliate for local news?”
Their ratings must have just come in.
Same goes for their outrage over Facebook’s advertising model. Then they went to commercial for another pharmaceutical product that consumers can’t even buy. But they should ask their doctor.
Local news media is gathered by young people who regurgitate their cable and broadcast bettors. Think independently? Have a knowledge of history, economics, religion? Nope.
You MIGHT have an occasional person in a local newsroom with a degree and/or experience in political science. But most of those are tainted by leftist ideology.
The truth of this was abundantly illustrated for me at a Tea Party event back in 2010 or 2011. We encountered a kid working as a “reporter” for the Miami CBS station. (Owned, by the way, by the network.)
This reporter knew NOTHING about how the Cuban government came to power or how the people are treated. A very nice Cuban lady told him...She was polite and kind, but we were stunned at the ignorance.
Shoot. I thought the thread was about Larry Sinclair. Obama would’ve REALLY hated that!
50 years ago in college if you couldn’t cut it in real science you went into psychology
If you couldn’t cut it there you went to education
And if that was to much you went to journalism. The easiest degree there was.
This is such a ridiculous non-issue. Sinclair represents 9% of US tv stations and did a brief editorial over its stations. The major mediascum editorialize constantly across the vast majority of outlets and fill their “news” with liberal spew.
They simply can’t stand it when they don’t control 100%. THEY are the chilling, Pravda-like entities!
How can our democracy be in danger when we’re not a democracy?!!!!
“so everybody more or less had a similar view of the world.”
I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s, my family were Union folks who voted Democrat, but were all WW2, Korea and Vietnam Veterans. There used to be a time, when everyone loved our country and culture, but had different views on making it better and stronger. None of those folks, who used to vote Democrat still do. Could JFK, LBJ or Jimmy Carter win the Dem nomination today? Or could the 1992 version of Bill Clinton win? I doubt it.
The video was creepy and offensive - but so is joe & mika. Just because they didn’t read the script doesn’t mean they don’t recite the same catechism every day.
I remember Yakov Smirnoff’s jokes about the USSR and news. If you wanted to hear the news were 3 news channels, the Gov’t channel and two others. When the News came on and if you went to Channel 2&3, there was a screen that said change to channel 1. Sometimes I feel that all the channels we have are #1.
Hey Joe!
Here are some FACTS:

“Rita then moves on from her poorly-informed attack of my work to attack the company I work for: Sinclair.
As for her objection to “Must Run” that Sinclair sends stations it owns (another talking point being furthered by major national talk shows and publications courtesy of Sinclair’s competitors), Rita lacks the talking points and context to understand that the equivalent of “Must Runs” are sent by the national networks (much larger than Sinclair) every day to all of their stations in the form of programming they “Must Run.”
For example, every ABC station in the country “Must Run” ABC This Week with George Stephanopoulos every Sunday. I like George and I like the program. But that’s an entire hour of programming led by a Democratic operative, Clinton campaign official and Obama supporter—who continued that job even when Hillary ran for President.”
“...three television stations.”
Stations??
B-HO is such a man-child.
“I’m getting a message that says, ‘The uploader has not made this video available in your country.” I suspect I messed with my computer once too often... or Florida has seceded from the Union.
He’s a Comcast scumbag.
