More succinct and descriptive would be the 'Friends Of Disney'.
By the way, didn't Psaki just leave the white house for one 'news' network, while Disney bought another?

Re: Media Bias
I never saw more than a highlight. Was she good?
Re: Media Bias
Good enough to get drawn away by an offer from MSNBC.
I think I know what Musk plans to do, now that he has insinuated himself into the twitterverse.

Re: Media Bias
You make me wish I had a Disney+ subscription - just so I could cancel it.
As for Trump, why would I hate him? If anything, I am a little jealous of the man. He's one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true! We need more smartest people anywhere in the world, and I so wish I were one of them too.
Knowing your occasional disinclination to watch videos, here is a transcript of what he said:
See? Nothing like that demented Sleepy Joe.Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart —you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true!—but when you’re a conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?), but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners—now it used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.
Donald "grab 'em by the pussy" Trump is more sexy too.
Joe Biden, on the other hand, is just a paedophile. I am sure you'll have no trouble finding pictures of him having sex with underage girls. In fact, entire Democrat Party is the party of paedophiles. I know because Marjorie Taylor Greene told me so.

Re: Media Bias
How very dare they. The patriotic hero travelled to Kenosha with the best of intentions. He was defending law and order. This is what I don't understand: Why did people feel threatened by the mere fact that young Kyle was walking around with an assault style rifle? There is nothing illegal about attending a protest with one!

The outcome of the trial was exactly right.

Re: Media Bias
Yes, he went to the town he worked in, and helped protect businesses from rioters.
That's how the police on-scene viewed it. In the moment, as they allowed him to continue carrying a gun and rendering aid to injured peopleHe was defending law and order.
They didn't. Except for the guys who attacked him, he didn't even point the gun at anyone (unlike the prosecuter in the trial)This is what I don't understand: Why did people feel threatened by the mere fact that young Kyle was walking around with an assault style rifle?
Of course, lots of gullible rubes repeat the biased media lies like 'crossed state lines' or 'threatening protesters'.
The protesters had gone home. This was a riot, after curfew.
If maybe you could tell me what Rosenbaum or Grosscruk were protesting, I could understand your support of them more.
But for me, they were attacking a kid with intent to harm, as was revealed clearly during the trial.

Re: Media Bias
It may be risky for Hannity over at Fox News to disavow ivermectin after promoting it for so long, but I suppose he knows his audience. Oceania had always been at war with Eastasia.
'Hannity's new lie is that he warned his audience about ivermectin'
'Hannity's new lie is that he warned his audience about ivermectin'
Fox News host Sean Hannity is now pretending that he consistently warned his audience against the use of ivermectin, the antiparasitic drug that a constellation of right-wing personalities and grifters promoted as a COVID-19 treatment that a major study now shows is ineffective.
“People wrote this story, by the way, that I had been telling people [to use] ivermectin. Linda, is that not the one thing that I kept saying, there’s not a single study that I’ve seen that shows that it works?” he asked his producer on his nationally syndicated radio show on Friday. “One hundred percent,” she replied. He later suggested that his discussion of the drug was limited to hosting “guests on this program [who] mention it as part of their protocol; anecdotally they say it works.”
Hannity’s claim that he had waved his audience away from ivermectin is a bald-faced lie. In reality, last summer he sold his Fox and radio audiences out to the right-wing hucksters promoting the drug as a treatment for COVID-19. He repeatedly and recklessly touted the drug’s “incredible” promise as a COVID-19 therapeutic. While he claims now that he consistently said that not “a single study” shows that ivermectin works, at the time, he said that “numerous studies” proved that it did.

Project Veritas has another story teaser out. Going to be dropping 'something big' tomorrow. I expect it relates to the media bias some can see clearly.

If you don't have a low-censorship news source, you might still be able to see it. No helping those who insist PV is 'bad' though. Tunnel vision is real.Microsoft, Apple, and now Google.
The scope of government surveillance just keeps growing and growing…

Whatever they are, they have won every court case brought against them by NPC's.
Your vague accusations are almost as informative as that record.
Your 'enlightenment' is good enough for a sheltered space though. Maybe someone here, with no access to the broader internet, will believe you.

Oh the never-ending paeans to the great O'Keefe. He sued CNN just recently and lost. If CNN isn't 'NPC' in this phantasy, then who the hell is?
'Project Veritas Loses Defamation Lawsuit Against CNN for Depicting Twitter Ban as Part of "Misinformation" Crackdown'
CNN did not defame Project Veritas by depicting the group’s Twitter ban as part of a social media crackdown on “misinformation,” a federal judge ruled on Friday.

Re: Media Bias
https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/tucker- ... -last-hopeCBS, REPORTER: You tweet a lot.
ELON MUSK: I use my tweets to express myself. Some people use their hair, I use Twitter.
CBS, LESLEY STAHL: Well, but you use your tweeting to kind of get back at critics.
ELON MUSK: Rarely.
CBS, LESLEY STAHL: You kind of have little wars with the press.
ELON MUSK: Twitter is a war zone. If somebody is going to jump in the war zone, it's like, OK, you're in the arena. Let's go.
CBS, LESLEY STAHL: OK, who does that sound like?
ELON MUSK: I don't know. Who does it sound like?
CBS, LESLEY STAHL: It sounds like a guy who lives at the White House.
ELON MUSK: Oh, that guy, yeah, sure. He's very good at Twitter.
"Twitter is a war zone." Now that tape is from three and a half years ago. Twitter is no longer a war zone. There's only one army on the field. Donald Trump has been banned for Twitter, despite the fact he may run in the next presidential race. He's an active politician with millions of people who would support him. He's been banned. Charlie Kirk had a huge following on Twitter. He's been suspended, too, so is the Babylon Bee and for that matter, this show has been suspended. Questioning a prevailing storyline is the crime. Do that and you're gone. It doesn't matter if you're factually right. We were factually right. It doesn't matter. Challenge power and you are censored instantly.
Now, it's hard to believe that the world's richest man is the only person who could fix this. You'd like to think our democratic systems could fix it, but clearly they can't. So, Elon Musk seems to be our last hope and tonight there are signs that Elon Musk plans to do something big with Twitter, buying 9% of the company was clearly more than an investment. He doesn't need the money. Last week, after Musk became Twitter's single biggest shareholder, Twitter's management announced that he would join their board of directors.

But go ahead and keep insisting they are false. If you will put it in print, maybe you can get on their 'wall of retractions'.
No, a better bottom line for Musk.
But maybe I'm a bit cynical about free speech. I don't think he can do it, even if he owns twitter, phone/computer production, server infrastructure AND his own satellite network.
