NYT Admits No One Believes Political News...

[Ingomike]

Paying attention to the impeachment inquiry and other developments means having to figure out what is true, false or spin. Many Americans are throwing up their hands and tuning it all out.

Then they are failing in the mind control efforts.

I haven't watched any of it. I did hear about it from a friend who...

Made up rules for impeachment. No vote in the Senate. It's not going anywhere but keep them off gun control for a while.

Is it not strange that everything seems to be running right along with out their interference. Total focus on this crap. Fighting among themselves.

Just shows how absolutely little they are needed.

It's fascinating the degree to which they still try to blame someone other than themselves.


"But just when information is needed most, to many Americans it feels most elusive. The rise of social media; the proliferation of information online, including news designed to deceive; and a flood of partisan news are leading to a general exhaustion with news itself.

Add to that a president with a documented record of regularly making false statements and the result is a strange new normal: Many people are numb and disoriented, struggling to discern what is real in a sea of slant, fake and fact."


I don't trust social media, I don't trust online sites, and I don't trust President Trump, but none of that, or "general exhaustion with news itself" is the reason why I don't trust the New York Times and the other mainstream media. They are the reason for that.

Friday nbc cut out at 2pm when they’re normal network window was done. ABC held on for another 30 minutes but then joined general hospital for the last 30 minutes. Either they realized the hearings were t interesting or they didn’t like the direction they were going.
