Fake News

[C-Mag]

Have we talked about the Fake News of the Trump using a force of 100,000 National Guard in a nation wide round of the Illegals ?

Actually, that was Trump's fault. He tricked the media into reporting fake news.

It's magnificent. How long will they go on like this before they realize they are fighting in the wrong weight class? This is like Mike Tyson beating Ronda into a coma.

Let's say you guys are the media. What exactly would you have done differently than the AP if you had this document?

Or is this a nihilistic thing where we say fuck the media even when they're doing their jobs?

[Calculus Man]

Maybe you could report the honest facts? That the document is a draft and has no legal power?

Yeah, that seems fair.

A) I would report the facts: Flynn was acting in a capacity he wasn't supposed to and when I finally got the leak I would report what he did.
B) I wouldn't insinuate any number of things that they have such as: 1. Trump put him in the position (therefore must be impeached.) 2. There is some sort of shake up going on in his newly minted administration. 3. Obama is completely innocent of the exact same thing (actually worse,) concerning using a diplomatic channel with Tehran and how much they will love his policies.
C) fuck you and fuck the MSM article you rode in on.

I thought the story was the white house considered using the National Guard to round up immigrants. I wasn't talking about Flynn Nuke so shut up for right now.

So Calculus, the story would read: "White house has draft which has no legal power?" Isn't the story the fact that the white house made the draft in the first place which would indicate they considered using the national guard at some point? Otherwise why would they make the draft? Just for the sake of wasting paper and ink?

I'm just trying to understand the board mentality, I've been reading for a while but I still don't get it.

Well luckily we don't need the media any more we can just read Krusty's tweets directly now.
It's not like any leader ever lied to us so why do we need journalists anyway?

This is typical of how this is being reported. This was the fourth link on Google News.

Even when they don't lie outright, and there was definitely some of that going on earlier, they can't resist using the most reprehensibe hyperbole.
