Re: The Fourth Estate and Politics
All three were rather despicable examples of how to pump false narratives far beyond 'spin' and into the realm of crazy. But absolutely representative of the current Republican deterioration into a party of insanity.kramerica.inc wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:04 am You dislike McEnaney more than Sanders or Spicer?
Interesting.
She really must have done her job well!
Remember, Trump is not what made the party what it is today - he is just the logical next step in a group of people who will do pretty much whatever lying it takes to maintain its grip on power given its minority status instead of evolving to match the actual electorate as a whole.
It is likely to get worse before it gets better.

Re: The Fourth Estate and Politics
Laughable. More live Pot meet Anvil. Your Network has been showing non-stop "Dr. Seuss is cancelled" segments. Fox is the white grievance channel. MSNBC may be slanted in terms of editorial policy, but at least it traffics in news.
When not broadcasting Dr. Seuss and "cancel culture" segments, they give Greg Abbott a platform to deflect from his recent weather-related screw ups by blaming "migrants" and "immigrants" for spreading Covid...not long after someone decided to waltz into a Walmart and shoot as many latinos as he could. The GOP is a cancer on the country now. Fox News is its cell-splitter.

Re: The Fourth Estate and Politics
I do not watch cable news very often, and when I do it’s usually MSNBC or CNN just to learn what Is NOT really going on but what they want your types to absorb . I do occasionally listen to The Five, my dang wife likes listening to them, but that is often my queue to start dinner, prep the outdoor fire, or go exercise.seacoaster wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 11:50 amLaughable.

I agree with you. Coaster really is an all around good guy. He has persuaded me to the dark side more times than I would ever admit. My saving grace is I often fall asleep before I can finish reading one of his posts. That is not because they are boring. It is because they never seem to have an ending.youthathletics wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 12:04 pmI do not watch cable news very often, and when I do it’s usually MSNBC or CNN just to learn what Is NOT really going on but what they want your types to absorb .
