Platinum Contributing Member Jimmy Snacks Posted September 13, 2023 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted September 13, 2023 đ A Harley Biker is sitting on his Harley, drinking a beer, by the Zoo in Washington, DC when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the collar of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents. The biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch. Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back letting go of the girl, and the biker brings the girl to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly. A reporter has watched the whole event. The reporter addressing the Harley rider says, âSir, this was the most gallant and bravest thing I've seen a man do in my whole life.â The Harley rider replies, âWhy, it was nothing, really. The lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted as I felt right.â The reporter says, âWell, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a journalist, you know, and tomorrow's paper will have this story on the front page. So, what do you do for a living, and what political affiliation do you have?â The biker replies "I'm a U.S. Marine, a Republican and Iâm voting for Trump." The journalist leaves. The following morning the biker buys the paper to see if it indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, on the front page: âU.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT & STEALS HIS LUNCHâ And THAT pretty much sums up the media's approach to the news these days! 𤨠 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold War Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Just listening to ABC news report on radio about Biden impeachmentâŚ..Sounds like MCCarthy is in deep shit!  Not sure if they were reporting on it or giving a opening statement for the defense of the Bidens . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conservative news groups crank out fake stories to satisfy GOPers and liberal news groups do the same for their followers. Every now and then they get sued for the fabrications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I want that I have to seek it out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member Kivalo Posted September 13, 2023 Gold Member Share Posted September 13, 2023 I cant think of one single MSM outlet that is worth pile of used toilet paper. I used to sail with a captain who would say he'd rather have a daughter in the whore house than a son in the Coast Guard. That's kinda how I feel about our media outlets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing even is that they all practice yellow journalism. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is undeniable. Just because Fox is the biggest they are still only 1.5 million viewers. There are 300+ million of us. No question about it a majority of the news that get published is liberal. As I said, the only thing equal is they all practice yellow journalism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The simple fact that thereâs conservative vs liberal news is another indication how fucked up it is. Many Americans want news delivered so that their view of the world isnât challenged. The idea of raw news just doesnât sell ads any longer. So you keep complaining about the liberal news media controlling the airwaves and Iâll keep telling you that youâre full of shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bontz Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Let's be clear ... it's not news, it's propaganda. And yes, there's way more easily seen/viewed liberal propaganda outlets than conservative propaganda outlets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has never been one negative story about Joe Biden on my local news.  They have never ran one clip of Biden mumbling, stumbling,  and bumbling.  Any criticism or allegations are always followed by âŚ.alleged by the far right.   Example:  McCarthy is being pressured by the far right to pursue impeachment charges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
