Whining About The Media, From the Righteously Outraged Right
AH, THE NEWS MEDIA, everybody's nemesis, America's scapegoat, the source of all that fails in our society. That execrable, mainstream, liberal, muckraking news media. NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, The new York Times, or "slimes", as our clever ingenious conservative muckraking talking heads slanderously whine and opine. The Washington compost, and so forth. Always the acerbic, acidic, cute little barb, from moronic minds such as Chris Plant, the great fatuous Limbaugh, and the others. Its almost as if the spewers of hatred on conservative talk radio think they have a monopoly on linguistic cleverness, which they do not, although surely they think they do. they don't report the news, they make the news, they offer commentary, and personal opinion, and call it news, so the right wing whine goes. As if liberals invented that style of journalism yesterday As if William Randolph Hearst, Paul Harvey, and yellow journalism never existed before the turn of the millennium, as if liberals invented the genre of distorting the facts for the sake of sensation just for the sake of ruining news coverage and losing their ratings, to further socialism. God, what a pathetic, whining lament. Ironic, in that it is the whining complainers, led by the President of these Whining States himself, who offer the most distortions of fact, b their very lamentations. News flash to Republicans: we, the media are merely the messenger boys. And when we report the news, we call it reporting the news, and when we offer commentary, editorials, and opinion, we either call it that, or we assume that any discerning mind can tell the difference. The mainstream media, in fact, is either as reliably accurate or more so then ever before, Walter Cronkite notwithstanding. Suppose. for instance, that President Donald J. Trump utters a comment in the white House, to the effect that the nations of Africa are "shit hole" countries. This is a purely hypothetical scenario. suppose he so utters, and all across the news media all across the fruited plain, those dastardly liberal outlets report that "today in Washington President Trump described African nations as "shit hole" countries. thus commences the uproar, the volcanic hatred spew of our aforementioned right wing wing nuts. how dare CNN! Oh, how they unfairly slander our beloved President, while he nobly goes about the business of making America great again, by demeaning Africa! The media has liberal bias! The media should report news, not slander! The point is, if you accurately report what Trump and indeed America's conservative community and does, its slander, because when you report slander and low life people behaving badly, no matter how truthful the reporting, its sounds negative, slanderous, biased, unfair. The Republican part is the conservative white Christian party which tends not to accept climate change, believes in social Darwinism, believes that welfare programs make peo[le lazy and dependent, wants a huge military coupled with isolationism, and wants to give the wealthy tax cuts, which they way will help the poor, somehow, by some magic. to merely report these facts sounds so negative, that no commentary about them is necessary to give the impression that the media reports are unfair, slanted, biased. The mainstream media is not liberal, or biased against conservatives. the mainstream media simply does not echo conservative values, such as denying climate change and bringing back coal for more atmospheric carbon. Trump today made a remark which sounds racist he said that Latin immigrants are all criminals - again. OMG! How dare our liberal media even say such a thing! My fellow Americans" if anyone needs to be shot, it sure aint the news media, which, after all, is merely the messenger boy.
