Much msm media today functions less as independent watchdog & more as propaganda arm for their respective party affiliations. It’s gaslighting & leaves people subtly mad, the way you feel when you know somebody’s telling you a lie but you can’t quite put your finger on what it is

Trusting one's own truth is the answer to bullying influences. You may even subdue and convert the bully, who has little inner trust.

Oh, I can put my finger on it. You can bet which finger it is too.

I almost miss the days when the FCC used to fine the shit outta anyone who lied to listeners. Another right we lost along the way. The right to not be lied to by supposed media.

Talk about The View 😫
Both sides? Very bold statement.

Read @mtaibbi's explanation for why he left Rolling Stone. To paraphrase, media offers only a binary world, only critiques of right from so-called left MSM, & vice versa. That's why it's media & NOT journalism. taibbi.substack.com/p/announ…

MSM get bent over every time and take it with a smile and a thank you sir

Mueller's testimony (a million yrs ago) was delightfully refreshing in contrast to that. Straight facts w/ no opinion or drama. MSM didn't like it precisely because they had nothing to hook onto & spin, but more news should be like that.

MSM guided by the 1%. The polls that it generates are skewed to hide the bias. The headlines they use are also created to the same effect. Majority of it’s readers don’t get through the first paragraph of an article. Half a century of marketing science on full display.
