I check major news stories every morning on 4-5 different outlets. I’m amazed at some of the garbage they print that people just gobble up First Bobo and his circus what ev across the nation but ignore what’s going on in a state that has most of them

Then another story is how a family got behind on rent 6000 bucks during the shutdown. No they didn’t there was a rent moratorium for several months. NO ONE had to pay rent ! You know illegals didn’t if they didn’t have to.

Plus an immigration raid? In California? Lol lol lol lol yea right

Why bother with 4-5 propaganda outlets every morning, they all read off the same teleprompter anyway. Just listen to one, shake yer head and get on with your day or get up a little later and catch up on yer beauty sleep.

I don't think they really care how smart or dumb their audience is. They just throw out the net like any good salesmen and go for the easy crowd. One person equals one vote. Any tactic to gain a favorable opinion is all they care about. As long as the money is there they keep fishing the same hole with the same bait.

Our local news said a few days we had the highest temp since 1910. So wonder why it was so hot back then ? They probably don't have many very good records back past the 1850's, so when we have unknowns, they can play the fear factor anyway that is profitable. We was all going to freeze to death back not that long ago.

I wouldn’t worry too much. Search world climate over a million years or whatever. Temp waves up and down is normal, it’s just happening a lil quicker now. It’ll cool off.

if it was real, why the theatrics?

https://unfoundation.org/blog/post/the-historic-1988-senate-climate-hearing-30-years-later/

I distinctly remember the summer of 1988, as I was marking timber that summer...it was brutally hot and dry in the east, all summer long.

they held these "hearings" in Washington DC in June, during the hottest summer in decades. if that wasn't enough, they deliberately shut off the A/C to make the Senators sweat in the oppressive heat. That was a deliberate move to drive home their "point".

pure theatrics!

Its like everything else with them. Try to get the sheeple won over with emotions. Facts don't matter anymore these days when they are inconvenient and don't match the narrative. Its like the gun control nuts always saying . " Its for the children " next breath they are all for abortion. Its all just one big pony show with the goal to make the so called elites richer. A lot of countries in Europe are going to find out the hard way this winter that " going green" is not all its cracked up to be and a lot of folks will die on that path. But thats just fine and goes right along with the goals of the WEF . As their goal is a more " sustainable " population number.

when they start freezing to death, or have to choose between eating and heating, they can look in the mirror for the culprit....THEY VOTED FOR IT!

Everything the MSM puts out is calculated to get out the vote for Biden or any other leftist running for office. They don't think you're stupid, they know the Biden voter base is.

The thing that I find concerning is that sheeple just plain overlook facts .... I mean, every time they fill up their truck, buy anything from a 2x4 to a carrot or folks tipping over with fentanyl or being forced to get that jab or get fired ..... the list goes on , yet they are all out for Brandon. So to answer the OP's question. The media think that people are very stupid, And a large number of them are ... thats the scary part. They will run over the "green cliff" like lemmings cheering and clapping and ask for more of the same.

Te media thinks we are stupid since they keep lying to us and over and over again. The problem is half of America is stupid and keeps falling for it.

Joe biden says an a bullet out of an AR 15 travels five times as fast, a 9mm will blow your lungs out, you dont need and AR 15 in war-you need an f15. How many rounds of rifle ammo have we sent to Ukraine? Whitehouse press secretary says there is not anyone just walking across the border. And the Dems dont question any of this? As the US Border Patrol agent said about press secretary - “she is either dumbest person alive or out right lying.” I think that statement describes most Dems when it comes to the big issues.

Well what took the cake was a reporter reporting on the peaceful protest and directly behind him several men were beating another, and in the same frame cars and a building was on fire.

Yet he was reporting on the peaceful protest behind him with a strait face.
