Credible News Sources

[Valerie]

I'm asking for consistency to whatever standard is being applied here even though it's not clear what that standard is.

There are two ways I could take this. Are you asking for Fox to be banned or for CNN and MSNBC to be allowed on the forum?

All three are terribly worldly. All three are sensationalistic. Fox has been caught red-handed saying they intentionally lie to their users in order to tell them what they want to hear and boost ratings.

I'm interested in reading Fox's exact words regarding what you claimed here. Many Fox journalists claim Christian faith so if it was an intentional "practice" for them to lie In surprised so many of faith would work for Fox.

I was wondering where the sources are for this claim. I am assuming it is pertaining to the 2020 election and the misinformation purported at the time. If it is, I see no difference between that and the election interference by the mainstream media and Biden's water carriers, when they lied about the Hunter laptop story.

I will post exact words later, my break is over.

But even if there were "no difference", that would imply that they should be treated exactly the same way. I think there are differences, let's look at that when I post the exact words.

I decided to block CNN and MSNBC because of the false reporting on the Covington Kids and Nick Sandmann. They knew the truth and intentionally lied and distorted the facts. They did the same for Rittenhouse.

I do not like restricting anything, but since conservative sites were and are blocked on a lot of other social media sources, I see no need to block anything else. I made a decision for the board considering all the users, not just a few.

CNN has been a little better of late. If they keep going towards truth and not distortions that they never make corrections on, then I may reconsider, but not any time soon.

Please read the guidelines for the forum and let this go. I do not plan to discuss it further.

Is NYTimes considered blocked? They are in my opinion a mixed bag - sometimes reliable, sometimes not.

Nope. Again, we want to restrict less, not more. They are quite unreliable, but will do corrections.

They have been a leader in foisting the word “insurrection,” immediately, repeatedly, unendingly, with impunity and without “correction.”

They, and others, do this routinely in their reporting language, to their fawning audience.
(i believe) this (writing with deep bias) is taught in gov education, which prepares graduates to secure employment in the “news” and “entertanment” industries, in addition to preparing future teachers and all willing to comply, no matter what path the graduates seek.

It’s largely required for most employment: Comply!

Literally, with all that is done, including with the exploited public treasury, i’m astonished elections are not “clean sweeps” for libs!
The only conclusion possible is, the propaganda must be sufficiently flawed, half+more must be able to resist it.
It’s really a sort of miracle. (In my opinion.)

i don’t expect these abuses to end or be ended in my lifetime. (i believe in miracles, it could happen.)

(i’m convinced) most people would LOVE to be able to just trust the NYT, and their comrades. 100%
It’s just not possible as things are. Responsible journalism is a beautiful thing. And, rare.

In time, God has all of it in His hands. He sees clearly.

Courts has examined the evidence, with testimony from both sides, and ruled there was insurrection. I don't think this needs any “correction.” It has been proven in court.

“News” and “Entertainment” industries have been over-employed ..

Major media companies are experiencing mass layoffs and shutting down left and right.
This Washington Post journalist is upset, but here's why this is actually wonderful news.

^^The near-monopoly of leftist education directly supplies graduates for the workforce, definitely, for msm.
Balance is needed. In education and hiring.

@mtmnynj8071 WROTE:
Journalism died after 2001 when instead of trying to answer the 6 main, important questions (Who, What, Where, When, How and Why), news mixed facts, opinion, and truth to report garbage. The lamestream media lied to use for over a decade now.
We've had enough of it.

Journalism is fickle to be sure, but fake news is far from new. Ancient Egyptian pharaohs cared stone panels dipicting fabulous victories in battles that all other sources say they lost. Newspapers knowingly published forged letters reporting to be from George Washington regretting the revolution in the middle of the war (he did not respond but after the war went out of his way to encourage the publisher not to flee). Political enemies of Jefferson published newspaper editorials claiming if he won people would have to bury their Bibles. Antagonists of Andrew Jackson published claims his wife had been a prostitute, which caused her a lot of stress and when she died early Jackson blamed the press. The Yellow journalism of Hearst and others lied the US into war with Spain.

There is nothing new under the sun. In Mark Twain's Huck Finn, the outlaw group float down the river city to city experiencing different venues of the dark side of American culture. In one town they get hold of the local press and print their own broadside ads to fool the locals into their schemes. Wise people have always consumed news critically.
