BREAKING: The “News” Will Be Ignoring the Events in Nevada (big surprise…)

Greetings, my friends — and greetings, my trolls (tell David Brock that I said, “Hello!”). It’s been a busy couple of days for those of us who’ve been trying to report on the open sabotage of democracy that occurred on Saturday at the state “democratic” convention in Nevada! We’ve been carefully combing through the dozens of hours of footage taken by the heroic delegates, documenting first-hand accounts, and presenting all that we’ve found in articles like these.

Meanwhile, people have used hashtags like #NVDemConvention and #ElectionFraud, which have been taking off on social media everywhere — but have you noticed who **isn’t** noticing all of this? Most of the major “news” outlets! This probably isn’t surprising to many of you because, even from the beginning of the 2016 democratic primaries, you’ve known that many of these “news” outlets are also among Hillary Clinton’s top donors. That being the case, we’ve had to deal with their unfair, heavily biased coverage for the past 7 or 8 months (or forever, really) — but this this time the media is going too far, in this author’s opinion. If they refuse to report on the murder of democracy, then they have become accomplices. Just take a look at today’s front pages from the New York Times, CNN, and Huffington Post, which (other than Yahoo! & Google) are the top-3 most-visited “news” websites:

Notice that there is not a single mention of the democracy-disaster that occurred in Nevada this weekend! And, judging from the amount of web-traffic that I (and many writers on the subject) have endured, it certainly isn’t because the Nevada convention isn’t a hot topic.

Think about it — the #NVdemConvention is certainly “news” (no matter how stringently you define it) and it is certainly a hot enough topic to bring a lot of web-traffic (so it would also make sense to cover the story from a business perspective). Now, if it makes sense to cover the story because it’s important news AND it makes sense to cover the story because it would bring in money for their advertisers — then, why on earth would they not be covering it?

1. Very disappointing yet entirely predictable.

I too searched yesterday and this morning for reports. Either nothing or op-eds using the convention as a dishonest opportunity to characterize the Bernie delegates as similar to Trump supporters. It's insane-making to spend even 2 minutes thinking about how the corporate owned media has blanked itself across every nook and cranny of this country like a giant octopus and spews propaganda 24/7 (either that or completely censors information it does not want the US population to know).

2. yes, exactly. and even

purported bernie "supporters" on the reddit bernie sanders 2016 forum linking to these disparaging "articles". no one is calling them on it, either.
