Posco, hombre...why are you fixated on what would amount to an opinion piece? Your opinion is that abortion is wrong, somebody else's opinion is that it is a woman's choice. IT IS OPINION! Not the job of MSM to report opinion pieces.

An honest referee. I can see an appointment to the SC in your future...but not under the current administration.

Why do you insist on calling the news opinion? You're right, the MSM is full of opinion but not much in the way of news. In a perfect world they would present the facts and let the people decide, not promote an ideology. You don't seem to be grasping that.

I thank you. 2024, ole Catch will be sitting on the bench black rope and all. On a serious note, for those that are as old as me, remember the news, Walter Cronkite? Back in the day we were given the news, then we decided on our own how we felt. There is no news today, it's all BS from both sides. There lies the intended crux!

OK, I officially give up. You win. I'll sign off by stating that I don't think your opinion is newsworthy. LOL

That's about as far as I figured I'd get with you.

Fake news!!

So is every NEWS article that refers to AR-15s as Assault Weapons or Machine Guns an "opinion piece"? The point is the MSM publishes as news articles what technically should be published as opinion pieces.

They are obviously trying to get everyone on board so they can fight Russia. Its no different than the weapons of mass destruction to get us in Iraq.

I don't need the news to report pro-gun or anti-gun. Same with abortion. That is OP-ED

But if you can't see the slant when it comes to how facts are portrayed (or omitted) to steer perspective and opinion... Then you have no hope.

Remember the Katie Couric interview with gun owners. We saw her ask a question and gun owners were shown sitting there unable to answer... Come to find out later they had cut and pasted the footage. They threw out the footage of them answering the questions and replaced it with footage of them sitting there waiting for the interview to begin.

Propaganda all the way to keep up the narrative.

Do we know if those are actually even Ukrainian citizens?

Ever see the movie "Wag the dog"

Mike

Do OAN and Newsmax report the news accurately?

They don't pretend to be nonpartisan. Can you say the same for the MSM?

There are tons of footage that folks have found recycled for other events and used as footage from the invasion. US media lies, Ucranian media lies, Russian media lies. Good luck finding the truth. I usually just listen to all sides and figure reality is some where in the middle.

Don't know. Don't pay attention to them either. But I doubt it.

Anymore your best option is to see what the story says and then go look up the actual facts yourself... You know, do a journalists job for them.

Starting to think making them stick to the 5 W's should be law.

When the MSM disenfranchises half the population, you have a problem. Whether a leftist chooses to see it or not is irrelevant.

Of course not. No one does.

Define the MSM.

Not always no. But they are miles ahead of CNN...

The power of the media shouldnt be dismissed lightly. They have parroted lies throughout this pandemic. How many in MSM told the truth about ivermectin or HQC ? How many cable networks gave doctors and scientists who were using these drugs successfully any airtime ? They were censored and called all kinds of names by almost every network out there. Who was right and who was wrong ?

Here is a good example of good journalism.

There is no grading on a curve when it comes to accurately reporting the truth. So, that's a no on OAN and Newsmax. .
