What's wrong with the F-ing media?

[WOLFMAN87]

The coverage of Biden's pardon was a picture of what is so very wrong with U.S. media.
Of course as always, they tried very hard to cover both sides. They covered the Republicans horror of a president pardoning his son & then they covered the fact that some Democrats didn't like it either. I saw this story covered this way on a network and on the radio tonight
Yep, they sure nailed both sides. Way to go main stream media.

1. repukes care more about Hunter Biden than they do about climate change, the war on women, impending fasicsm

THAT IS HOW THE MEDIA HAS FAILED

[Hassler]

2. $$$... don't give them yours.

[Dem4life1234]

3. Today's lame stream news media is controlled by thug corporations

So of course they will try to down the Dem politician. They are sociopaths who live and breath money. They have no soul.

Have they ever had integrity by the way? I'm asking the elder posters on here, did they have integrity way back then?

Where was the outrage when the conman pardoned some of the nastiest human beings his last term?

They are absolutely the main ones to blame for us losing the White House. I don't watch lame stream news media.

[La Coliniere]

14. Networks didn't both sides Nixon and his Watergate crimes.

This was before the networks merged their news and entertainment divisions in the 80s. That was the beginning of the end of integrity in the news biz.

22. Thank you!

What a shame!

4. both-siderism and "dems in disarray" crapola

Tune it out. Bless Joe Biden and his family. They have faced a government and media united against them in fascism and stood strong.

[Dem4life1234]

9. He will always be my president

I have tremendous respect for him.

He took that maniac's busted economy, and cleaned it up.

The next Dem has a lot of work to do and no doubt will encounter a hostile media.

[Orrex]

5. All corporate media is part of the reichwing propaganda machine

[WSHazel]

6. Whenever a Democrat is asked about Hunter Biden

pivot to Trump's cabinet and policies. Make it all Trump, all the time. Constantly hold MAGA to its ridiculous campaign promises, or just make up new ones and claim Trump made them. Who is going to bother to find out. America wanted MAGA, let's give them MAGA.

10. Ive been saying that since romney ran . He was asked a question

And then he gave an answer unrelated to the question, and the interviewer called him out on that and romney said, look, you get to ask the questions you want, and I get to give the answer that I want.

7. US media works for the PutinGOP.

[Takket]

8. the MSM is all owned by the gop. so.... they reflect their ownership

[Nigrum Cattus]

11. Very simple $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[purr-rat beauty]

12. The media is in a nose dive...

....as ratings show

They know dropping their sane washing of trump will only prove they were off the course for quite some time, so they go after President Biden who has every right as a president ( and even if he doesn't, he's immune by the S.C. ) to do as he pleases.

If I were President Biden, I'd be dropping E.Os like smart bombs all over the place, making a mess for trump's team to claw through but that's me.

I haven't watched the news or bothered to see what some of the "loud mouths" on the right have to say so fuck em

[Montauk6]

13. Said "media" showed their hind quarters already

... when they had THE UNMITIGATED GALL to both-sides Tim Walz getting a month wrong on his time in China and Shady Vance's endless palaver of BS.

[Demobrat]

15. If Biden was a MAGAt he would simply say

he never said he wouldn’t pardon his son. When confronted by evidence he. would say it was fake.
He changed his mind based on new info. BFD.

[Initech]

16. Ownership by billionaires who are only interested in greed and profit.

[YoshidaYui]

17. Just wait 6 months after Trump gets into office

Tne main stream media will be wetting their pants when firing squads are introduced and the magats will make it their favorite TV show!

[NewHendoLib]

18. Follow. The. Money. See who owns it. Just turn it all off - it is largely useless these days

[Meowmee]

19. This is part of why I stopped watching it for the most part

That and that fact that they enabled and helped elect a fascist who murdered millions of Americans and they are did/ are doing it all over again... and normalizing it all.

[BumRushDaShow]

20. The media is having a complete meltdown

full of massive cognitive dissonance as they continue their heretical reporting against those who have attempted to uphold the law while coddling, sane-washing, and normalizing literal convicted criminals who are about to take office.

Any reporter willing to talk about a Hunter Biden (someone not working in the administration) pardon = bad in the same story as a Charles Kushner (someone nominated TO work in the upcoming administration) pardon = good, is a complete fucking idiot.

[Crowman2009]

21. I have an easy answer for you!

The owners and executives are Orange Shitler's party buddies from his time as a guest for various expensive galas in NYC or they did bumps with him at Studio 54.

[markodochartaigh]

23. I just canceled my Economist subscription

over an extremely poorly reasoned anti-Biden diatribe. I've seen their bias before but this was over-the-top stupid. I suppose that some perfectly intelligent people go to the LSE, UCL, King's College, etc. but the quality of some of their graduates reflects poorly on them.

24. The best thing you can do is what I'm doing, do not watch or read any corporate media, they ARE the problem. nt

[Bluethroughu]

25. They are corporate owned rags.

[chouchou]

26. Since the election, it's been wondrous not watching a damn thing what the corporate media have to say.

My husband and I watch the local stuff and still get what's-going-on with Democratic Underground.
I LOVE it. We remember >> "Trump is coming to Florida !!!!!!" "Joe Biden is 81..Yes 81 ..and fell off of his bicycle !!"

F*ck that shit. We're much happier. They can run their lies and bullshit up their asses. (Some of our friends are doing close what we do)

[The Unmitigated Gall]

27. Media slept through Drump's pardon

Of the real and substantial crimes of Charles Kushner. To say nothing of how they snored through pardons of criminals Paul Manafort, Roger Stone and Steve Bannon.
But now they're awake and crying like babies with poopy diapers.
Fuck them.

[Kid Berwyn]

29. They missed the real story.

Trump as pee-resident pardoned his people convicted for their treasonous connections to Putin.

[Eko]

30. Which media? The major networks? Social media sites? CNN? MSNBC? The Washington Post?

Sure, some media is horrible, some is ok and some is good. Why would you call them all out for the actions of some? Isn't getting rid of the media like on page one of the Authoritarian handbook?
