MSM to screech about them being grandma-killing terrorist Nazis who just literally lynched black people and did not listen to social distancing laws, in 3...2...

Had to go see how their local news was covering it and sure enough, they don’t mention the size difference and had a slanted view towards BLM. Local news is shit too.

imagine what would happen if all the Trump supporters pulled their money together to buy up majority stock in these Lefty companies? imagine Trump supporters buying up majority stock in Facebook and Twitter and read it and he's news stations and CNN and just making them be truthful

We don’t need police reform. We need news reform.

That's obviously a statement by the corporation; they weren't hiding it.

Yup, our local news is pretty liberal. Not surprised they slanted it the way they did.

Didn't even realize they had a station where I live. Checked their facebook and wouldn't you know it, a way different tone from KTVB which has got to be the worst news organization I've ever seen. The only thing worse here where I live is the Statesman newspaper which, and I am being completely honest here, I wont even use in my bird cage because I don't want to submit the poor fella to that bullshit AND it isn't even worth shitting on.

My neighbor works for Sinclair and they are an awesome employer. Other friends know the owners through their work in Sun Valley and everyone adores them. Zero sip nada negative stories and as I live sort of between Wyoming and Idaho they would have reached me. Now Mitt, on the other hand.... was very rude to my neighbor at a social event. Many, many here can't stand him

They have been saying that people rioting has REDUCED Covid transmission.

So where we're at now....

Protesting to be able to work = bad, evil, kills grandma

Rioting and burning down buildings = good, virtuous, makes grandma safer

Now if this were reddit, this message would get censored

Mathematician here. The problem is that by its very structure Academia breeds cowardice. If a subject matter had any political import whatsoever, anybody who disagrees with the agenda is driven out before they can get tenure. And even if you get tenure after 4 years of undergraduate, 5 to 7 years of grad school, a 3 year postdoc (or two), and a six year period as an assistant professor ( requiring letters of recommendation and diversity letters at every stage of the game), they can still fire your ass if you go against the narrative in anyway on race and gender issues. because now if you disagree with affirmative action you are a danger to your students, you are terrorizing them.

also looking at the way these idiots in the soft Sciences manipulate statistics I can confidently say that any academic consensus on a subject that has any political import whatsoever is useless. Conservatives are absolutely right to doubt anything that comes out of the University. It's all bulshit the damn place you should be defunded outside of the hard Sciences.

Well, they have to find a way to placate the rioters as well as find a way to blame everything on Trump and republicans. So when reality conflicts with the narrative, you get a ridiculous scenario that the virus somehow can sense whether you're protesting the lockdown or for BLM, and whether it spreads or not depends on your political views.

Yeah, I'm still honestly curious how the "best" strategy for them wasn't honesty like:

Please bear with us, China bought out many of our masks in January and early February and on top of that your local and Federal government is under prepared for this event. At this time we please request that you refrain from buying PPE that our medical require, but invite you to make your own handmade masks as a substitute until supplies increase. Please continue to use all sanitary, social distancing and relevant measures as recommended by the CCD.

They've basically lost a LOT of trust by everyone who pays attention and can remember what happened more than a few months ago.

Well MSM literally own local news so that's no surprise.

Dims run pretty much every major city in America, even in "red" states.
