Your deafening silence about media authority abuse going about 30 years back is pretty telling about your hypocrisy

You're too late. We started doing what you were doing for generations so get over it


my deafening silence? give me some examples and i'll be happy to sound off. you really think i'm avoiding any single topic? my desire to hear myself talk outweighs any topic.

creating a nixonian secret blacklist seems like a far less accountable means of accomplishing the same thing as publicly cutting someone's security clearance. The goal is to deny him access to privileged information and consulting either way.
Trump clearly has more at stake with the rampant leaking than just a personal vendetta or political sniping. Having folks like McCabe, Strzok, Brennan, Yates, Page, Rice, etc running around with clearances even after they've demonstrated that they're not only political partisans but were willing to violate the apolitical role of their positions to stab Trump with their hate-boners, is a clear security risk. When someone shouts from the rooftops their willingness to be a liberal martyr, you take away the keys to the gun closet


play out for me a scenario where clearance, and not access, is a security risk.

It goes back thirty years, its a gold mine.

The biggest example was when Joe Biden said that Mitt Romney was "going to put you black folks back in chains" and the media played it off as a factual statement.

Romney was the cleanest candidate ever to run for public office. This is why you have Trump now.

you seem to be implying that i disagree with any of this. even more hilarious since i didnt join the sub yet really during the time you're referencing. also i had far more libertarian views at the time so even if i was in here i'd have railed against the leftist media.

i dont really get the point you're trying to make, tbh. i laugh at huffpost, cnn, and yahoo with all the rest of the righties, and i laugh at brietbart and fox news with the lefties. this makes me a hypocrite? i've stated often when i felt the media was being unfair or chowing down on nothingburgers, for fucks sake i've called the entire russia investigation a waste of time since it's onset, and called out the media for instilling false hope in leftists. i talk a lot about muslim problems in europe. call out BLM for glorifying criminals.

have any examples other than a dated one from a time i wasnt here?

centrists are hypocrites, pick a team already doofus!

admittedly, i have a friend that chooses a sports team in each wing of each sport. has an AL team and NL team, NFC team and AFC team, east-west teams in the NBA. it drives my subtly nuts.

The biggest bias in reporting right now is proportionality. Spending time talking about topics that don't matter (russia, separating mexican criminal families) and ignoring topics that matter (federal budget, actual policy analysis, crime statistics)

Thats the best way to describe it. We should be spending more time holding these media scumbags feets to the fire. Getting them fired, making them look bad, demonizing them, exposing what they are

The media could be a force of good if it actually did its job to demonize people like Iran and North Korea. Demonized ISIS. Popularized federal budget deficit issues. They've quite literally sold their souls and theyre doing their best to bring down the country in their current state

When you spend 20 pages talking about "was Trump rude or not?" and 2 pages talking about how the media was siding with Kim Jong Un over America its an issue. Hope that gave a better perspective

Go read the north korea topic where i spoke about the media jumping the shark and how bad of dudes the Kims have been for 60 years for 50 pages, a common theme is the lack of reporting.

again, you're saying things i generally agree with. not sure why you're aiming at me with all of this. is it because i revel in a bit of hyperbolic frivolity at the media circus from time to time? that's fucking rich from the guy who posts "my cup is full of liberal tears" 5 times a day.
