Millions raised to investigate the press

I don't watch these guys but maybe you will. Nor did I follow the Twitter thread. It's the comments to it elsewhere that I found interesting.


Among other interesting responses, this is the one I found interesting.

* Debra says:
“Organized efforts to target journalists and discredit their reporting happen in places like China and Russia . . .” AND the Obama White House, but, . . . “Organized efforts to target journalists should not happen in America.”

THIS IS WHY WE KNOW FAKE NEWS EXIST— because of the facade constructed, the false equivalencies presented, the phony outrage generated, the failure to present the truth, the flippancy in the narrative, the fetid approach to research, the fudging of the facts, the frenetic tone of doom.

Hey, press! Why don’t YOU quit all the F’ing around . . .?

They think they're above scrutiny.

Like the rest of the Left, they have a long overdue scrutinizing coming.

Only they can "investigate!" Where is it written that a reporter's product is beyond scrutiny? Nowhere.

Oh noooooes, they're TARGETING reporters! Triggering! Hurtful!!! To the ramparts!! Bend the arc of history! The center cannot hold unless everything circles around us!!!

This was my original reason for voting for Trump, because it would severely undermine and dismay these awful, privileged, prating hacks. Mission Afuckingccomplished.
