Kind'a scary how completely the Lamestream distorts or omits news

Lamestream "commission"

 

"News" is close to 100 percent propaganda now.

 

For instance, when President Trump wrote Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi a letter that objected to his impeachment — virtually all the Lamestream called it deranged, rambling or incoherent.

 

The Lamestream's opinion was offered — with the apparently sole exception of NBC News — without companion-publishing the letter's text.

 

From this and daily instances of the same kind, we can reasonably infer that Media are opinionating about purported news, without informing anyone what the core facts are.

 

 

Similarly, in the "omission" department

 

Consider Trump's executive order allegedly battling anti-Semitism.

 

Virtually no one talked about its obvious (and significant) anti-free speech details.

 

And, again, no one bothered to publish the order's comparatively short legal text.

 

 

The moral? — if "you" depend on the Lamestream-Mainstream for basic facts . . .

 

. . . "you" will wind up a brainwashed ignoramus.

 

Whether that outcome could be good — in any conceivable way — is another inquiry.
