A career intelligence analyst who is an expert in hostage policy stood before President Donald Trump in the Oval Office last fall to brief him on the impending release of a family long held in Pakistan under uncertain circumstances.

It was her first time meeting the president, and when she was done briefing, he had a question for her.

"Where are you from?" the president asked, according to two officials with direct knowledge of the exchange.

New York, she replied.

Trump was unsatisfied and asked again, the officials said. Referring to the president's hometown, she offered that she, too, was from Manhattan. But that's not what the president was after.

He wanted to know where "your people" are from, according to the officials, who spoke under condition of anonymity due to the nature of the internal discussions.

After the analyst revealed that her parents are Korean, Trump turned to an adviser in the room and seemed to suggest her ethnicity should determine her career path, asking why the "pretty Korean lady" isn't negotiating with North Korea on his administration's behalf, the officials said.

Compared to the thinkprogress/shareblue nonsense, it appears like their M.O. is to (generally) post factually accurate headlines when it concerns Trump/etc and make sure they identify source of statements/reports rather than making it their own words, but when it comes to democrats they open up the usual barrage of hackery. Going through that list of headlines, and ignoring the article (because nobody reads those), we have;

>Devin Nunes To Unveil Proof of Reported Illegal Surveillance by FBI & DOJ Officials on Trump
Yup, that's what Nunes says he is doing, and while it may be stretching Nunes's claims of 'abuse' into 'illegal surveillance', thats a stretch Nunes himself makes all the time as a republican partisan hack. I give it an 8/10

>Feds File First Russian Uranium-Linked Indictment: Bribery, Money Laundering, Kickbacks
This would be a completely accurate headline if it wasn't for the quibble that technically the feds already had indictments years ago silently, and these are the first indictments since the scandal became public. I give it a 9/10

>MSM HOAX: Trump Lawyer, former porn star deny ‘hush money’ claims
They combine the accurate reporting on the denial with their own capital letters denouncing it as a hoax, inserting their bias, and being factually incorrect- this story is not the product of a hoax. I give it a 5/10

>DOJ Prosecutor: Comey, McCabe, Lynch, Yates Waged Stealth Plot to Destroy Trump
Not even fucking close, Horowitz has made none of the allegations they are attributing to him, his investigation hasn't made such claims yet. He is, however, actually investigating these things at least. I give it a 3/10

>2 GOP senators in Trump meeting say they don’t recall ‘shithole’ comment
That's exactly what they said, whether its true or not, its being reported accurately. I give it a 10/10


There's more to bias than merely the veracity of the reporting. You have to consider the choice of stories to report as well as the rhetoric.

its funny watching the commie skinned praise the comments of a corrupt former leader of a country which has citizens fleeing to America to escape the poor conditions there

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mexico-fox/mexicos-fox-falls-from-grace-amid-corruption-probe-idUSN2449860220071024

typical anti-american sentiment from that commie :rofl:


I saw no praise in his post.

P.S. double ad hominem

I have no doubt that if I looked through their articles going back Id have no problem finding bias in selective reporting. These five at least (though not the next line pictured there) dont exhibit much selection bias, as they're the biggest headlines in national media right now anyway other than nunes and uranium one, the neglect of which by other media is more an issue of their bias

Nancy is a senile at this point. She honestly looks lost most of the time.

Senile is an adjective. She can't be 'a senile' any more than you can be 'a stupid'.

Sidenote - in a test of mental fitness I'd take her over Trump any day.

It's funny cos many of the things he's describing are things that America is guilty of too.

e/ and yes the UK is guilty of some of them too to inb4 the whataboutism and deflections.
