First off: Geoff, please take care of that eyeroll injury. If you don't give it adequate rest in the form of decent, reasonable written material, a small pull can become a permanent scowl!
I've written lots of comments on the #@&*@#%!! MSM over the last few years, and I've come to believe that they're just not going to write anything positive (or even fair) about Democrats, because except for the corrupt ones in the conservative middle, they won't make the big bucks off of us. So sad (eyeroll!).
Maybe they need to get real about how social media has changed the nature of news, but that doesn't give them license to do nothing but lie and support a particular party. I doubt that corporate owners will change voluntarily, so I imagine that some form of the Fairness Doctrine would have to be instituted. Maybe by the government partially underwriting several? Providing a framework for honest, reasonable, responsible journalism?
What I know for sure is, we need to keep the Senate and the White House, and retake Congress.
And we need to figure out some way to establish a system of news media that people can read and count on.
Without those we'll be unable to get much of anything done at all, AGAIN. STILL. Remember the Obama years? Uphill battles on everything, and the Republikkkans are far more reactionary and unreasonable now than ever before (at least in my lifetime).
That having been said, let’s not forget that it was a lack of interest in being interviewed by the NYT that sparked their war on Biden. So this is standard for their current editor in chief. Just one more thing we’ll have to fight.
I hope the MSM doesn’t get an interview until after the election. And then, I hope it’s only a White House official who explains that when they remember what it means to be a member of a professional press corps, then maybe she’ll give them some of her precious time.
And THAT my friends, is how you tell the MSM that they totally suck‼️Don’t get me wrong, I have my trusted favorites such as O’Donnell, but, this isn’t a game where you can play both sides!
I mean seriously, Democracy or ratings? Freedom or clicks? Rights or likes? These shouldn’t even be questions! These people should know more than anyone else that there is nothing that will benefit them from another tRump presidency! America will remember who treated us as if we are stupid!
The press can always go to her campaign rallies and report on what she says. Or is that not “exclusive” enough? Sadly, a couple of 80-year old white ladies I know still subscribe to the Times.
I don’t care how the Harris campaign rolls out. Why would we compare her to Hilary?, also she has had 4 Mo to run a campaign, please. I think thr ARE BEING STATEGIC!
We all know thr poor me , thr poor Donald JABS wud come, his arguments amount to a 3 rd grader and a tantrum because peas are on his plate!
I won’t read anything. Nothing from NYT. Pure corporate greed and fascist propaganda. Sad but true. They used to hire real Journalists and had integrity about finding facts.
When Habberman sold her country out by not stepping forward with the truth and facts, and instead saved it for her book, I swore never to ever read that paper again.
Pro Publica, The Gaurdian, NPR, BBC, and independent journalism is where I go now.
Covering a Rump “press conference” is like filming a dog taking a dump and calling it breaking news: everyone has seen it happen before, and we all know what the end product is going to be.
::I mean, could they be anymore petulant than this? Seriously, the main stream media has been so outwardly hostile to the Democrats that can you seriously blame them for telling them to go fuck themselves (metaphorically).::
Oh, no! I want to literally fuck them....
...with the short stake preferred by your more sadistic impalers.
I can't think of a more worthy bunch of toads than the MSM these days for a good impaling. That's how MUCH I hate them for how they hounded Biden, and still keep sucking Trump's flaccid tiny little pen-ius....
Yeah, it's an ugly sentiment—they made it that way.
They complain that Harris isn't taking questions, but they are totally silent about Trump not actually answering questions. A lie is not an answer. Changing the subject is not an answer. Saying for the umpteenth time that he will be holding a news conference on that subject soon is not an answer.

Go get them, Geoff! On point! Plus I love your foul mouth.

NYT is not alone, actually just one of the pack… deliberate malfeasance…

In my opinion, NPR has become complete wimps
As with late-night TV, we have to go to comedy for truth, like NPR’s Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me

NYT needs to EARN an interview.
Nope. They’ll turn it on Kamala. Her press team is doing the job!
Absolutely perfect Geoff, I like this a lot.
From you, that means a lot.
I love your posts!
