The corporate medias' narrative on the Hegseth hearings is shaping up

[senseandsensibility]

and it is that he acquitted himself well and is good at communications and it showed.

Any neutral and intellectually honest observer who viewed the Democrats questioning him would not agree with that. He did not answer and interrupted constantly. He would not answer yes or no questions.

But that's what the R's want spread to people who don't watch the actual hearings, and the corporate media will be more than willing to go along.

11. Well stated, Senator Reed!

2. Our Media is a waste of time. Fortunately they don't get my attention since

I no longer watch their parade of pundits telling you what to think.

[whathehell]

5. No, not necessarily...

One can watch hearings like this on C-Span and get it without the pundits, which is what I was happy to do.

[JohnSJ]

6. I was referring to the "medias". I don't consider CSPAN MSM

[whathehell]

7. Then you may mean "corporate media"..

I don't know what "medias" are, but I think most would agree that C-Span is part of the Media in general

[JohnSJ]

8. Your connotation is right. I meant the CNN's, MSNBC, faux, etc.

[whathehell]

9. Gotcha.

3. Hegseth has the Fascist confirm votes,...

... in the senate,... no reason to sweat,... Pete is going to be Sec/Def.

The US Military will be djt's private Fascist goon squad.

4. Oh, and the women were so mean to him boo-hoo

[madamesilverspurs]

10. It was one of Democratic women

who said he was "filibustering" his answers. I was listening from another room, would have liked to see his reaction to that.

12. He's a Faux News host FCS. The fact that he is articulate and media savvy has zero relevance for the head of DOD.

[BidenRocks]

13. One relevant question which was not asked....

Mr. Hegseth, did you have an alcoholic drink before these hearings?

If he gets really offended he did.

UNQUALIFIED!

[BattleRow]

15. I was wondering what was actually in that water bottle he was frequently swigging.

[spanone]

14. He's a bullshiting, gish galloping 'warrior'. scary as....
