When will the CDC correct its COVID death counts, as Italy just did?

It is very rare that a left-wing poster will include an excerpt of the salient point(s) contained in a link they post. The reason(s) they don't is because their links DON'T support their position or actually refute it. They know that if they posted an excerpt that the excerpt would be challenged and decimated. So, when they just slap up a link and say it is from (fill in the blank with an authority figure) and by mere virtue that the link is from a doctor, epidemiologist, scientist, or the like they claim the link is pure and holy.

I have been down that rabbit hole way too many times and still find myself falling into the trap of looking at a link just out of curiosity and then I post that the link really doesn't confirm what the poster claimed. Then, as usual, we get into a debate about the link saying such and such and I didn't read the WHOLE link and if I did, I surely would be convinced of the righteousness of their arguments. Thing is, they STILL won't post the portion of the link that they are relying on. They just shove a link out there and say "Go fetch. It's in there." They become incensed now when I ignore their links because they won't post the important or confirming excerpts (because there are none).

It's a sad statement on the quality of the "reporting" that is inflicted upon us that we need to determine what the facts are so often in discussing anything.

I just watched a media critic bemoaning the inaccuracy of the "reporting" starting with the charges that Trump was lying about Trump Tower was being bugged.

He listed about 20 "stories" saying we told this one thing, but then we found out that what they told us was a lie.

The current fiasco being tried Kenosha is ANOTHER example. The style of reporting is so twisted and corrupted that many think the folks who died during the riots at the hand of Rittenhouse were "Black".

From the original flawed reporting on the original incident involving Jacob Blake through the entire trial of Kyle Rittenhouse, we are being abused by the lying butt holes "reporting" the lies they wish to spread.

Another poster here bemoaned the fact that they used to tell us what happened and we had to decide how we feel. Now they tell us how we feel and we need to find out what happened.

We are left with only one option. We must always ask this question: "If this is true, what else must be true?"

There are two stations that I consider the enemies of America and there well could be others, but CNN and MSNBC are the most egregious. They are the epitome of the woke culture that is infecting all of society. People like Jake Tapper, Angel Cammaratyo, Joy Reid, Mika and Joe, and a long list of others who get paid millions to instill hatred and fear into society, with the intent to destroy the very fiber of this once great nation. They continually deride "whiteness" and any time a minority is involved in something bad, it is not because he or she did something bad it is because he or she is being picked on because of their skin color. Kamala Harris being a prime example. People hate her not because she is phony and inept but because of her skin color and gender. It is this contact fear and anger and division that primarily those two stations engage in and their twisting of the truth and leaving out the entire story as they are doing in the Kyle Wittenhouse story. If you were to listen to only those two stations, you would think the people he shot were innocent law-abiding black people just standing around minding their own business. That they are doing this and indoctrinating the black people into thinking this is making the races angry with a fight already happening outside the courtroom. they WANT the division and anger and a riot. It sells air time. Like a CNN Director said, FEAR SELLS.
 
I grew tired of that poster long ago.

The "straw that broke the camel's back" was posted yesterday and I read it this morning.

This poster seems to delight in saying nothing by posting empty and meaningless words.

Makes me wonder why he puts forth the effort to say nothing by posting meaningless and empty words when he could say nothing with no effort whatever.

Oh, well... reading the posts didn't take much of my time before. They'll take less time in the future.

In the past, I had a policy to never iggy anyone but this board became so annoying with a handful of very annoying people who had nothing of substance or value to say who would then just needle me with the apparent intent to get a rise out of me to get me suspended. They would then report me or someone else would. Thus, it became apparent that it was what they did. I suspect that some of them were very young....."twentysomethings" I call them who still live at home and mooch off mom and dad because they are too dumb or lazy to get a job and perhaps dropped out of high school because drugs were more fun, and they now hassle conservatives because we don't want to pay them hundreds of thousands of dollars just because they exist.

I just say it is better now when I weeded those types of people out.....the angry ones, the mean ones, the bad apples. The type who would riot because they think it's cool to go along with destroying America because white people (except them) are racist and bad and of course they are holier than holy and good and righteous whereas other WHITE people are not. I cannot tolerate a white person who is racist against white people.

Much of this seems to be true.

The question then, especially in view of the ratings that are dismal for MSNBC and for CNN is, "Why are they doing this?"

Today, we are going to witness riots nationwide incited by the raving propagandists lying to the weak minded fools that they have deceived.

Is the goal of the lying propagandists to incite and promote violence and insurrection or to relay facts?

More and more, their goal seems to be clear.

Now the question is, based only on thier actions, why is their goal to incite and promote violence?

There are more and more alternate sources coming around, mainly internet sites and that is cutting into their market share. CNN and MSNBC and the NY Times and WaPo know this but there is really nothing they can do about it. This is why they are demanding that something is done about what they call disinformation, which as you know is information they don't agree with. They are not alone in this. The elitist, arrogant people in power at the CDC and NIH, and other agencies such as the DOJ, school board. FBI and CIA all want to stifle alternate news sources and use FaceBook and Twitter and YouiTuge and Google to do it.

But, I think those who I refer to are stuck. They don't like the dismal audience levels they get but can't do much about it except veer to the middle and the owners don't want to do that. Their business model is now to peddle fear and hate and who does it any better than the Cuomos, Reids, Stelters, Tappers, Blitzer, etc.? They are well-known hate and fear mongers. They are bringing in more females and foreigners to rail against America and white people and that is now their audience. They just pile on with the idiocy and hate. It's who they are now.

Poeple get a kick out of rioting. Especially when it is called for by MSM.

I don't much if anything about anyone posting here. This is a forum for ideas. I like it that way.

People who refuse to think are annoying. That said, though, I'm sure there are those who would delight in classing me as one of them.

If they could do so in a clever way, that would be okay. ;)

The failing ratings are the mystery to me.

Reduced audience used to mean reduced ad revenue.

Why are they operating using a business model that is bad for business?

Who's paying the bills?

I read an article the other day that CNN may be on the chopping block.

There’s a place for CNN in the proposed $43 billion combination of WarnerMedia and Discovery, billionaire media mogul John Malone told CNBC
<snip>
“I would like to see CNN evolve back to the kind of journalism that it started with, and actually have journalists, which would be unique and refreshing,” said the cable TV pioneer and longtime chairman of Liberty Media, which is a major shareholder in Discovery. “I do believe good journalism could have a role in this future portfolio that Discovery-TimeWarner’s going to represent.”

Well...

Looks like Don Lemon is going to be looking for a job. ;)
 
Are some Americans so uncaring and so anti life that they think it would be a victory if the CDC adjusted some of the numbers down a bit?

Dawn LeMans is also a brain dead moron ideologue with ratings so low they are difficult to measure.

All of those identifiers make him perfect for MSNBC! ;)

They get an audience of DP posters and other Marxist radicals to watch their hate-filled racist diatribes. Today, the new thing is to bash white people and call anyone who disagrees with their vile pronouncements against white people and America as white separatists.

I've been subjected to some clips of folks like Lemon and Joy Reid pumping the Big Lie into the minds of the indoctrinated.

It's amazing that the propagandists pump out the Big Lie and even more amazing that the brain dead dupes who listen to them accept it.

They reject truth and voice lies that make no sense in light of actual real world events and there are those who listen and believe.

Sadly, one of the brain dead believers is Biden.

MSNBS and CNN are destroying America. Here is a good article on corporate media.

So, anything to say about the COVID numbers or is this a Joko/Para/Code mutual masterbation thread at this point?
