Here's what I don't get

[malaise]

M$Greedia discussing Democratic party candidates as if they have no chance against this con man who violates both the Constitution and the rule of law. It is their responsibility to call out this pathological liar, racist, ignorant, woman hating, crooked, vindictive, incompetent cretin.

They should be screaming anyone but this low life and I'm just warming up.

[spanone]

1. 👍🏼😎

[malaise]

3. Hi there

I can't believe the narrative and it's like they've all been given orders to make sure they say president every time they mention his name

[pandr32]

5. It always makes me gag

[malaise]

13. Turned the off earlier

and just came in and turned it on and it was the same crap with a different face.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

25. They're determined to normalize this shit.

[spanone]

8. I was watching earlier & had to turn it off...I'm heading to the yard to cut some shrubs!

[malaise]

11. I just finished cleaning the inside of my car

Tomorrow I'll take it for a wash and wax but they can never clean the inside like me

[True Blue American]

10. Getting phone calls

About how Cable is attacking Democrats over and over.MSNBc sounds like Fox.

I did hear that Fox cut away from Daytona speech to air a Bloomberg ad! Now, that was funny.

[malaise]

12. It's sickening

We don't have Fox by choice

[True Blue American]

21. I do not watch Fox

Read that on the net.

[Wellstone ruled]

2. Corporate Media is not about to give up their

big Tax Breaks and zero regulations or over site. They know what the picture looks like if the Orange Anus is deposed from his Throne.

[malaise]

7. What brings in more money - tax breaks or the horse race?

[Wellstone ruled]

14. Both,1.6 Billion in 2016.

Reports say look for 3 Billion plus on this cycle,zero Taxable. And the kicker,seems every Media Source,both Electronic and Print have raised their rates of Subscription.

[Raster]

4. True that... plus the M$M needs a horse race to justify their exorbitant advertising rates...

... and justify the salaries of the talking heads that haunt the entire electoral process.

[malaise]

6. They'd better ask themselves how long they can continue to rake in the profits

when it's a one horse race

[ramen]

35. I think that is exactly their game.

I think those powers-that-be have already given up on a long-term future and are cashing in while they can. Bad times..

[malaise]

38. I maintain that the law will catch up with

Don the Con

[ramen]

39. I desperately hope you are right.

I also desperately hope that it happens in both of our lifetimes.

[padfun]

9. That's because he knows the fix is in.

And I don't see anything done about the cheating. In fact, I think it is going to be worse this time.
We really need to watch this election or it will slip away from us.

GOTV is great but we need to multi-task this election.

Edit: OK, I misread that. I thought it was about McConnell, not MSM.

[malaise]

15. Don't forget 2018

We won big time

[OnDoutside]

16. That's just what I was about to say ! The news on Dems turning back

to the issues affecting people's lives is the way to go, like the midterms.

[malaise]

18. Agree

Dems need to mash down the Con's lies more forcefully - so glad to see Obama's tweet today

[OnDoutside]

19. Thanks, I missed that.

[safeinOhio]

17. Less and less news for me.

Even watched a movie with GF last night.

[pwb]

20. They are getting money from us, advertising, and both political parties big bucks.

Money from everyone and everything. Even the beloved MSNBC will talk out of both sides of their mouths to get the $ prize. Streaming video of anything is better than Cable news, all of them. IMO.

[True Blue American]

22. If you get Ovation

They have some great Murdock mysteries.

[bucolic_frolic]

23. I sometimes wonder if Trump simply represents capitalism and greed

to these greedy corporations and their minions. It's a total worship of money. None of those people got where they are by being democratic. They got where they are by agreeing to support the greed in all its manifestations.

[The Mouth]

24. Moderates and 'third way' Democrats

are just as fanatical and ruthless, bullying and completely certain of their righteousness as any 'Bernie Bro', they are just much more subtle and circumspect about it.

Instead of yelling about "Revolution", or hyperventilating about racism or sexism, they simply chant the mantra 'electability' as if Bernie, or Pete, OR Joe or Amy wouldn't wipe the bathroom floor with 45.

It's not about 'electability', it's about maintaining the status quo, not upsetting the apple cart, not scaring Wall Street too much.

[Turin_C3PO]

34. Why are you attacking Democrats?

[The Mouth]

40. Only - ONLY- to the degree they attack Bernie

who is not my first choice, but any attempt to derail him in the name of 'electability' if vile. Let his positions stand or fall, in both primaries and general, on the ISSUES, not on the bullshit of 'electability'.

In other words, I support Pete, but it's on ISSUES, not on the bullshit of "Electability", Disagreeing with Bernie on what should be done and how is OK with me, trying to sink him because of some moronic crap of "Trump will destroy him over 'socialism', should be not only called out, but ridiculed.

It is *ALL* about the ideas.

[Ohiogal]

26. Well said!

I can’t add another word.

[guillaumeb]

27. The first, some would say only, priority of the US corporeate media is

profit.

The second is sensationalism.

Informing the public ranks about 11 on an importance scale of 1 to 10.

[Prof.Higgins]

28. Spot on! Political pundits are busy trashing Democratic Party's candidates and stirring

up antagonisms among Democrats to create more melodramas which increases their profits.

29. I've been doing a little reading..

at third world traveler....thought I'd share

Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have."
Richard Salent, Former President CBS News

"We are going to impose our agenda on the coverage by dealing with issues and subjects that we choose to deal with."
Richard M. Cohen, Senior Producer of CBS political news

"We now live in a nation where doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, universities destroy knowledge, governments destroy freedom, the press destroys information, religion destroys morals, and our banks destroy the economy."
Chris Hedges

"In America, we grew up thinking that the people that we see on the nightly news are journalists. But, there is no journalism happening there, only script reading. That is understood by anyone with a sliver of common sense, and the objectivity to realize that their newsperson is basically an actor."
Charlie Robinson, in his book "The Octopus of Global Control", 2017

30. Sadly it's the truth

Bookmarking the link - thanks

[stillcool]

31. I spent a long time there...

years ago. Kind of like going to an old library. Hindsight has done some strange things in regards to my perception of 'truth'. Interesting how life reveals.

[Buzz cook]

32. The media ia the problem

If we had an honest media in America, Gore would have been president, there wouldn't be a tea part, Clinton would have been president.

Since the Fairness Doctrine was abolished, the media on average has been a both sider stenographer for the conventional wisdom of the "villagers".

Just wait and watch as the media turns against the democrats and begins to chase every shiny think the right pukes out.

[live love laugh]

33. Why would Republican media owners push Democrats? 🤷‍♀️

[uponit7771]

36. K&R, they'd be screaming bloody murder if 90% of Americans approved of him but he wanted to put ....

... their kids in cages.

Donald Trump would be hated to no end
