Who Puts the Lügen into Presse?

In Opposite Day Logic, USA Today Breathlessly Defends ‘Zuckerbucks’ [More]

Glad to see the term catching on…

And what else would we expect?

Ideological Cleansing

Why Californians are fleeing this once-Golden State [More]

Jackboot George acts like he played no part in its tarnishing.

Lügenpresse Blues

Media Tailspin Continues As Public Trust In News Outlets Crumbles [More]

Now do one that shows how voting behaviors change because of it.

I wouldn’t be breaking out the champagne just yet. The programmed electorate is going to act on its biases, and just because they don’t trust a source means they’re motivated or able to divine the truth..

Spider-Sense Still Tingling

It started over at The Boyfriend Loophole.

Now at least we have a name, and know that “he had been arrested for domestic violence before.”

But they’ve got plenty of pictures of her. Why are they making it so darn hard to find a picture of him?

Oh, the Humanity!

Gun fanatic challenging Uvalde congressman for his seat is seen in resurfaced 2022 video promoting Nazi rifle as the ‘original ghetto blaster’ [More]

If she’s not careful, Maryann Martinez, Texas Bureau Chief, is going to get so worked up she’ll pop her Rapex.

Daily Mail, from that snotty part of Europe whose @$$ we saved. Twice.

AP-paratchiks

As long as AP was in there, Israel could not bomb the place. [More]

I guess they didn’t know about Bill Clinton’s Rules of Engagement…

It’s All in the Presentation

You think you hate the media. You don't. You don't hate it even nearly enough. They tell you half the story and play upon your sense of compassion and decency to arrive at the conclusions they want you to. https://t.co/6A1rjQAM1t

At least tell me they weren’t also “aspiring rappers“…

Call in the Propaganda Corps!

FBI Recruited Wall Street Journal For Softball Story After Mar-a-Lago Raid [More]

Lapdog media has more benefits than watchdog media.

That’s why I call ’em the DSM.

These guys had better hope Trump loses.

And what can I say about Wray besides I tried to warn people?

J’Accuse…!

Feds: These St. Louis-area gun shops sell the most guns traced to crimes [More]

All the cool commies are doing it.

No proof of wrong-doing, but the reputation innuendos have been made.

Now show us which “gun sense candidates'” constituents the criminals were.

[Via bondmen]

You’ve Had a Little Too Much to Think

Excessive free speech is a breeding ground for more Trumps [More]

The totalitarian-promoting wanker says that like it’s bad thing.

I’m sorry, I know you’re not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but that is one creepy, fascist-looking motherf****r…

[Via WiscoDave]

One Man’s Civility is Another Man’s Obnoxiousness

Journalism School’s ‘Diversity and Civility’ Course Teaches Students ‘About Racial Microaggressions’ and ‘Cisgender Privilege’ [More]

Speaking of microaggressions, I find being called “cisgender” judgmental, and prefer to be referred to as “normal.”

The Propagandist’s Lament

There’s too much to read and watch, too many places to read and watch it. It’s enough to distract you from the biggest news in journalism right now: In 2024, it’s harder than ever to get a tough story out in the United States of America… The result is a thousand stories you’ll never read, and a shrinking number of publications with the resources and guts to confront power. [More]

You don’t say.

As for reasons why, you missed the barn.

Guilt by Innuendo

For the third year in a row, the gun shop owned by U.S. Sen. Ted Budd was among hundreds across the country flagged by federal authorities in 2023 for selling weapons that were later traced to crimes, according to newly released records. [More]

Funny, somehow the “real reporter” on this story missed the standard ATF disclaimer:

Not all firearms used in crime are traced and not all firearms traced are used in crime.

If ProShots was suspected of deliberately violating the law, this story would be ab0ut an ATF raid, arrests, and indictments.

There Goes the Narrative

Febrio De-Zoysa, 19, allegedly used an “edged weapon”… [More]

Note the url still says “gunned down in mass shooting,” as we blogged about yesterday.

And lest there be any doubts:

And I see they named names this time.

Anybody see a prominent retraction and apology?

[H/T Max]

Ever the Deutsch Bag

Donny Deutsch Lays Out Biden’s Path To Victory: ‘Scare The Sh*t Out Of People’ [More]

What does he think their whole “gun control” strategy has been, and here we are, still armed.

Trotting out a gaggle of oath-breaking Benedict Arnolds is nothing we haven’t seen before either.

I think Donny’s a blustering pu$$y and he’s the one who’s afraid.

[Via Jess]

The Stereotypes Just Write Themselves

Washington Post Reporter Slammed for Article That Blames Retail Theft on Capitalism and Says That America is Built on Stolen Land [More]

What’s so wrong about calling a bagel brain a bagel brain?

[Via Michael G]

And the Leni Riefenstahl Award Goes To…

Can’t make this up. CBS News fires @CBS_Herridge, then steals her notes, and in disgrace is forced to return them. A week later, the president of @CBSNews who signed off on that theft receives an industry free speech award. [More]

Another reason why I call ’em the DSM!

[Via Michael G]

If You Notice, You’re a Hater

Noticing Black Violence On Social Media Is Not Racist And Calling It That Is Manipulation [More]

Conversely, what the DSM does, suppressing the information, is racist as hell.

[Via bondmen]

God Complex

Politico Reporter on MSNBC Frets That Christian Nationalists Believe Americans’ Rights Come From God, Not the Government [More]

And what man giveth, man taketh away.

[Via bondmen]

And the Winner Is…

Journalist/Terrorist Yousef Masoud Gets Polk Award [More]

See, the DSM has to give themselves awards because if their masters did it, the jig would be up.
