(32,971 posts)who knowingly or unknowingly, repeat right wing talking points, like comparing this attempted coup to bad actors who infiltrated peaceful BLM protests. I feel the need to post this once again, my example is way back from president Obama's time in office.
Fox says that Obama beats his wife
CNN says it needs more evidence to give an opinion.
MSNBC says no he doesn't.
All 3 networks are talking about Obama beating his wife, including MSNBC.
What would cable news be doing right now had Trump been a Democrat? Can you not see that cable news has always leaned to the right? There are several cable news anchors who "get it" but then again even many legitimate news anchors aren't going to do things like talk about the 3rd rail of there being possible collusion between the White House, members of Congress and the seditionists.
Legitimate cable news anchors should be pushing for every damn person who breached the Capitol grounds to be arrested.
