The first newspaper in America was a pro-revolution mouthpiece lol

GreyCloak 12 points ago +12 / -0

I remember back in the early 80's in grammar school going over the American Revolution and one of my favorite teachers stating that the newspapers and pamphlets written then were not "the news" but opinions that were robustly debated. I took that to heart and have always questioned anything in the media.

journalism died a long time ago. do you remember a time when journalists actually did reporting by going to the area where something happened and getting facts on the ground? they used to call it "on scene reporting"

they also used to do things like investigative journalism, where sometimes they'd go undercover to infiltrate a group in order to discover the truth. the only group doing this now is project veritas

the vast majority of legacy media now is just employing glorified bloggers who are perfecting the art of the misleading headline while filling the body of the article with a ton of crap thats only used to fill space between advertisements. people that sit in a room all day and never venture outside of their echo chamber bubble they set up for themselves from the day they graduate college until they inevitably get fired when the layoffs start because of a lack of readership. journalism is dead

The whole Stalin thing and the cozying up to the USSR was a big fucking deal. I recently watched a 1944 Hollywood movie and the portrayal of the Soviets was as comrades to the US. A little backwards, but absolutely a fellow traveler. @ this point I'm not convinced that Hitler and his minions were worse. They were both SOBs that many people adored. Hirohito and Mao are in a similar category. What if Britain, France, and the USA just said fuck it and let the assholes go at it. Kind of like Sweden.

Raritat 1 point ago +1 / -0

Comparing evil versus evil is not ethical.

One can only guess if picking a side against hitler was the right move.

Hitler was SOB, however, giving a free pass to Soviets was the real loss. Soviets needed to be dismantled after WW2, by force, if necessary.

Remember when Vice used to send people into really dangerous areas to get some of the best War / Conflict zone coverage in history? Their pieces on Ukraine, ISIS, or even older ones like The Cannibal Warlords of Liberia are well composed and fascinating reports where the reporters get shot at, threatened, and swarmed by angry mobs.

Now it's just... Vice. Oh how the mighty fall.

Fucking LOL!!

Is this article about the very recent, giant flub that the New York Times made when they published unverified Intel about Russian soldiers putting bounties on American soldiers heads, you might wonder?

NO!

It is about a local paper in Nashville, TN that ran an anti-Muslim ad. The absolute lack of self awareness is INCREDIBLE!!

Man, this reminds me of that headline they wrote that they had to change. It was something that put the left in a negative light, so they had to change it. What a joke. You can't ask to be trusted when you are literally incapable of framing a story truthfully because of who you might offend. No thanks.

Epoch Times is the news headlines of journalism outside of the Dem party echo chamber. The greatest political scandal in modern US history is being covered by the Epoch times beat reporters and certainly not the New York Times.

The left says that it is anti-China which proves even greater independence.

The fact that it is operated by a journalist that was jailed by the chinese government that then fled to the US is what made me give it a chance in the first place.

News organizations make mistakes

Everyone makes mistakes, lady. What we have a problem with is the media's deliberate bias against conservatism and conservative ideas, and the media's cooperation with domestic terrorists like ANTIFA and BLM to bring in your leftist dystopia by force.

That's not a mistake, you're all just looney tunes and we're sick of hearing your BS

The journalism of the 20th century consisted of huge megacorporations hiring activists to push agendas. The journalism of the 21st century consisted of random people publishing videos taken from cheap cameras affixed as an afterthought to common devices everyone already carried around, while ignoring the dying husks of the megacorps of the previous century. Times...needs to get with the times.

Journalism is dead and the New York Times was the vanguard to its death. They’re the ones who chose instead of writing objectively to bias their articles. They’re the ones who chose to smear the character of those whom they disagreed with. They’re the ones who have tried to gas light their readers. They’re the ones that hires a racist to their editorial board. They’re the ones who have funded racist projects.

New York Times, you killed yourself.

I wonder sometimes if there is nobody working at those places that thinks to themselves "Man this place is fucked up, this is not real journalism, this is activism". And I wonder what happens to them, do they just quit and that's it? Would be cool if one of them would join the Trump campaign team. They could run ahead of their ridiculous spins, maybe even feed them the bullshit that they would happily parrot, letting them make a grotesque fool of themselves, yet again. Could be a lot of fun!

Part of liberal brainwashing involves the excision of the capacity to self actualize.

They are taught that they are fighting a war against the second Holocaust and thus they believe that any and all measures are justified even if those measures are completely contradictory to their ideology.

This is probably related to them threatening to reveal Scott Alexander of slate star codex fame true identity last week. He's no Trump fan, but he writes about him sincerely in the article "you are still crying wolf" about leftist hysteria just before the last election. That was part of what got him in the crosshairs, and lots of his fans who are still nominal leftists have been cancelling.

Ps: I cannot recommend that article enough.

True journalism is simply stating the context, facts, and events as they happened, letting the reader gather their own thoughts and critically think about the issue.

None of this can be found in "journalism".

Journalism is alive and well at thedonald.win, Infowars, Citizenfreepress, OANN, Breitbart, and thousands of other patriot venues. The corpses in the dinosaur media make millions for lying 24/7, while the rest of us do their job for free.
