Looks like you will have to find something else to play the victim at.

Correction: Looks like he will have to find something else to lie about.

I'll leave you to work out the issues you have with these horrible people you are calling "conservatives." In 30+ years on the air, if you haven't figured out that Rush wasn't a journalist, I wish you luck in that effort.

I've already corrected you on this. I was never confused on this issue. I'm aware that he's "not a journalist". I'm just pointing out how that excuse is just a handy deflection. He want's to play the part without any of the consequences and then bitch about all of "the media".

Hell, he doesn't even need to be a journalist. I've heard him hundreds of times complain about how biased "the media" is. Are you also going to try to argue that his bloated carcass wasn't a part of "the media?"

Amazon carries more conservative leaning political books than liberal ones. When it comes to books, Amazon has an algorithm that estimates sales and returns (returns work differently in publishing than any other industry) and that is what their orders from publishers are based on. Politics doesn't even enter in to it.

Yeah, I figured the post was BS even before seeing you catch him in the lie.

Trumpist who thinks "the most secure election in history" was stolen from the candidate who took credit for its security by massive invisible voter fraud that the candidate's lawyers forgot to mention in any of their sixty lawsuits and that ANTIFA members spent years posting pro-Trump stuff, then pretended to be Trump supporters before engaging in (pretend) armed insurrection so as to make Trumpists looks bad. . . . .

. . . . wants to invite persons attacked as "useful idiots" watch a video of someone else insulting them at greater length and expects it to be convincing?



Here is a counter-recommendation. It is sure to be far more informative:

If you watched the video he posted you would understand how ironic your post is.

I bought her book "Slanted" on Amazon.

I do not know whether Amazon still carries it (I am afraid to look. Hear tell Amazon is now refusing to carry many non-liberal books.)

Like most Americans, I have nothing but contempt for American "journalism."

Their demonization of the 45th President was unprecedented.

Every time I hear that a liberal medium has gone out of business, I cheer.

And you consider yourself a moderate? Holly shit......

 

[SCrider]

Personally, whenever I see the term "Goebbels media" in a post, I just assume the poster to be of below average intelligence. There are several on this forum who use the phrase, and none of them have given me reason to reconsider my belief.

Totally true. I see that term used by right wing idiots on nearly every forum and message board. None of them show any signs of actual thought or intelligence.

It was in fact unfair and it’s not conducive to a well ordered society for corporate conglomerates to run massive propaganda campaigns. Trump would’ve been re-elected +15 if not for media lies and distortions

He lost because he was a bad candidate and the people rejected him en masse. Stop blaming his failures on everyone else.

And whose fault is that? Can't be Trump's - he's the victim. I mean, lots of Republicans had good press relations. For some reason with Trump the press turned on him. Maybe something he did? Nah.... unpossilble!! Nothing is his fault. The Buck Never Stops on Trump's Desk. He's Just the Boss.

Should be the motto of the entire era.

The guy with the Rush Limpbawls profile pic lamenting "slanted journalism". LOL.
Good stuff!

That serves as rebuttal for a Democrat?

That’s where you go when you cannot make a case for the fraud perpetrated upon so many of you? It seems so.

You Blue Anoners... consumers of Journ-O-list‘m are the victims.

 

[bongsaway]

The term “useful idiots“ comes to mind as Sharyl goes through some of the Fake News.

You’ll learn where the term ”Fake News“ comes from... who funded those who used it, and the first President to use it... ROTFLOL...

Buckle up my Leftist friends... if you’ve got the balls to watch just part of how your Goebbels Media operates.

Bon apetito !!!

Trump lost, get over it.

 

[zimmer]

Trump lost, get over it.

This has to do with endless false reporting... propaganda by what is supposed to be an arm of society responsible for reporting facts... accurately.

ROTFLOL... My... you Leftists are bitter, even when you get someone in the White House... ROTFLOL...

Why is that?

 

[Jack Fabulous]

I think the folks who own Trump are all the Republicans who voted for him, all the Republicans who enabled him, and all the Republicans who still support him.

But, I dunno, maybe it’s everyone else’s fault that the GOP loves racism.

I think you would rather just stick your fingers in your ears, close your eyes, and sing "la la la la, la la la la" than acknowledge obvious truths that don't line up with your warped perceptions.

 

[trouble13]

??? You seem to be under the misimpression that Rush ever held himself out as a journalist in the news busines. He never was and never did. He was a political pundit, and radio entertainer. He never claimed anything else and his fans never believed anything else.

As opposed to CNN which hold out Chris Cuomo as a "News Anchor"

Rush also did not lie about facts to prop up his opinions as the legacy media does.

 

[Jack Fabulous]

I think you ascribe too much to grand conspiracy. More probably, they just didn't think anyone would care about Trump saying yet another stupid thing because he wasn't going to be the presidential nominee and everyone would forget his dumb ass again after the primary.

There was nothing grand or CT about it.

Go back and look at the media coverage of Trump during the primary and then immediately after he won. It's the most stark contrast I have ever seen.

Yes, because again, he was a joke that nobody cared about. A joke that nobody cares about doesn't get good ratings.

After he won the primary, he was a ****ing presidential candidate and pouring over the details of a candidate's life does get good ratings.

 

[Taylor]

You hate "slanted journalism" yet you have an avatar of Rush Limbaugh...

Discuss.

It's cute that you think Rush Limbaugh was a journalist. Bless your little heart.

He wasn't treated as a joke after he started racking up early wins.

Again, the media sat on those tapes DELIBERATELY.

 

[Deuce]

He was a joke until it became obvious just how many of our fellow Americans really were that gullible, selfish, and cruel, yes. Definitely a bit of denial, there. We didn't want to believe so many of our fellow Americans were that far gone.

Again, the media sat on those tapes DELIBERATELY.

That's a claim you keep making, yes.

The funniest thing about the whole Trump experience as it relates to the media is that if the media would have done their job during the Republican primary, Trump would have never even won the nomination. They sat on the "grab em by the *****" tapes until AFTER the primary was over. Had they released those tapes(which were recorded in 2005(?)) early on in the primary, Trump would have been sunk and bowed out very quickly.

They had him dead to rights but chose not to go for the kill until after he had won the GOP nomination. Why? Because they WANTED him to win, figuring he would make a much easier candidate for Hillary to defeat than, say, someone like Rubio or Kasich.

How'd that one work out?

Trump never hid what he was. People liked what the saw and voted for him. Not as many as voted for Hillary, but enough in the right states that he was narrowly elected.

"Demonization of the 45th president?" You mean the one who demonized women, refugees, asylum seekers, blacks, immigrants and the media? The one who lied thousands of times, who not only would not accept election totals when he lost, but not even when he won? The one who's slogan was Make America Hate Again? That guy?

"Because they WANTED him to win, figuring he would make a much easier candidate for Hillary to defeat than, say, someone like Rubio or Kasich."
Agreed.

The miscalculation on the DNC Political Propaganda media and Democrat's part was that there were so many people who have become so completely fed up with the globalist political elite and their record of some 30 years of increasing failure to vote Trump in.

You can see the results of this right here and now in the Biden admin, the globalist political elite reasserting their political control with all the EOs issued and the flood of seriously crappy legislation issuing forth from the House (well, not that any globalist political elite congressional legislation was ever any 'good').

 

[Jack Fabulous]

Trump never hid what he was. People liked what the saw and voted for him. Not as many as voted for Hillary, but enough in the right states that he was narrowly elected.

At a point when Trump had serious momentum during the GOP primary, the media was largely treating him like a rock star. The instant that he won the nomination, all of that changed. The difference was day and night.

It is all very well documented and preserved, too. The difference in coverage is undeniable. I said it at the time and I will keep saying it to the end of time... had the media actually done it's job instead of trying to plot the easiest path to a Hillary victory, Trump would have never even made it past Iowa.
