How the Mostly Progressive Media Manipulates its Viewers

I like liberals, especially older ones! I feel sorry for progressives, social justice warriors, and socialists! I dislike the progressive media and I am disgusted with the Democratic House! Here's why:

1. The current Democratic house and progressive media have turned the term "r****t" into a meaningless word. - We all know the recent tweet that President Trump made. Democrats and the media would have you believe that tweet was r****t and they've done a pretty good job of it. When I first saw the tweet the media showed I thought the tweet was r****t as well - until I realized that the media had manipulated the narrative. If you look at the tweet itself, you will see that President Trump never mentioned African Americans or even people of color. What he said in his tweet was Democratic Congresswomen. Here is his tweet in exact words: 'So interesting to see “Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how it is done. These places need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough. I’m sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out free travel arrangements!' - For those who keep up with Trump's tweets, you would very likely be aware that Trump was making a joke here and a funny one at that. An argument could be made that Trump was offensive and politically incorrect. An even stronger argument could be made that Trump was being sexist and a male chauvinist. However, the media and elected Democrats pushed the argument that Trump was being r****t and w***e s*********t instead. Why? Because Trump mentioned other countries and because that's the narrative they want to push. Our elected Democrats and progressive elite media have an endemic belief that any white person who questions or criticizes an elected Democrat who happens to be a minority is being r****t. During a press conference while Obama was president, homosexual Fox News journalist Shepherd Smith asked Obama a difficult question about the B******i attack. Journalists from every major progressive network accused Shepherd Smith a r****t. This is the same Fox News anchor that progressives are now cheering for asking Trump difficult questions and calling Trump out on inaccurate statements. Fox News, by the way, is the only network that gives a voice to both liberals(Shepherd Smith) and conservatives(Tucker Carlson). It even went so far as to give Bernie Sanders a "Town Hall Campaign Meeting" which proves that its attempts to be "fair and balanced" are genuine. I challenge any progressive to show me a conservative journalist on any progressive network. The only network that comes anywhere close is ABC. It's an atrocious double standard which I find sickening because the elitist progressive media and elected democrats are only to happy to applaud a white democrat who calls a Republican African American an "Uncle Tom" (Examples are Colin Powell, Dr. Ben Carson, and Condaleeza Rice). I'm getting slightly off point. A week prior to Trump's tweet, the same Democratic Congresswomen that Trump was referring to were calling Nancy Pelosi a r****t and accused her of supporting a Democratic r****t regime. Notice Trump did not call for them to be deported. He suggested they go and come back and show us how it's done. Yet, DNC Chairwoman Maxine Waters, in 2015, called for Trump to be deported.

2. Elected Democrats and the Progressive Media would have you believe this is the first time they have called a Republican President a r****t, a facist, a w***e s*********t, and a neo-n**i. They would further have you believe that this president is part of the extreme right and that the extreme right had never been in power until now. - In reality, the extreme right hasn't been in power for a hundred years. Worse, every single Republican President since Richard Nixon has been branded a r****t, a f*****t, a w***e s*********t, and a N**i by the progressive media and elected Democrats. ( watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUNynMEtRFk before commenting) This is despite the fact that many of those Republican Presidents made major contributions to African American communities and African communities.

3. Partisanship has poisoned both parties and the media - In this area, I condemn both parties. It is unfortunate that increased partisanship began with the Republican Party in 1992 when Newt Gingrich pushed elected Republicans to v**e only along Party lines instead of their beliefs, even to the point of having the RNC and elected party leadership punish elected Republicans who refused to "get with the plan". This led to RNC corruption to the point that it drew in the cooperation of the progressive and conservative media alike in a widespread media blackout of P**********l candidate in 2008 and especially in 2012. Both medias even went to the extent of intentionally misrepresenting polling data. (watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMXPgo47Dww) This was because Ron Paul was one of the only Republicans against the Iraq war from the beginning, not one of the elite, and pushed for auditing the federal reserve. The RNC rules committee, of which P**********l Candidate Mitt Romney was somehow a committee chairperson of in 2012, then changed the rules, so that Ron Paul could not even be v**ed for at the Republican Nomination. ( watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syD3_uQKES0 )Donald Trump, by the way, used the exact same rules Mitt Romney corruptly passed in 2012 in order to steal the Republican Nomination, in order to win the Republican Nomination in 2016. Mitt Romney, coincidentally, tried to get his own rules repealed in 2016. For you Republican Never Trumpers who h**ed Trump's Republican nomination, the person you have to blame for that is none other than Mitt Romney. I wish I could say thethe Democrat party and DNC was better. Instead it copied what the Republican Party had begun and became even more corrupt and ruthless. During the Obama administration, several Democratic house and senate members that opposed certain Obama policies found themselves being targeted, audited, or jailed under vague corruption charges. In 2011-2013, during the IRS targeting scandal, 75% of the refused or delayed tax-exempt filing organizations were conservative and had conservative names or themes such as "tea party", "9/12", "patriots", and "Israel". ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRS_targeting_controversy ) In 2017, an investigation into the liberal and progressive organizations denied or delayed found that 90% of those organizations denied or delayed opposed at least one of Obama's policies including Occupy Movement organizations which opposed Obama's handling of mega banks and wall street companies that the Obama administration bailed out from 2008 to 2010. In 2015, Hillary Clinton used the media and DNC to literally steal the Democratic nomination from Bernie Sanders. (watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8qBexfR3r4 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ldg76_Awp3A ) Bernie Sanders, along with Ron Paul, also, coincidentally, supported auditing the Federal Reserve. ( watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=869POIyGm2E ) It is very possible that the Federal Reserve rules the US and is likely more powerful than the President, Congress, and Supreme Court combined. Don't believe me? You can type any member of congress and get dozens of results from major news media. Type Audit the fed in google and you will find news from mostly minor news media. Major News media avoid it like a hot potato!

4. Elected Democrats and Progressive Media blame Trump for Mentally Ill Shootings, Pretend Trump has Never Condemned R****m or W***e S*******y - Here is Trump Condemning r****m and w***e s*******y ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhs5_kMmRnQ ). Let's go back to the first part. Elected Democrats and the Media have blamed Trump's words for the mass shooting in El Paso. Why? Because the guy was anti-immigrant and a w***e s*********t. This is the lowest bar elected Democrats have ever dropped to. I wish with all my heart that this was the lowest the progessive media has ever dropped to but, they've done much worse, as you'll soon see. There's only one problem with their current dialogue: The El Paso shooter was also anti-Trump. Why would this guy have listened to Trump if he was anti-Trump. Trump isn't anti-immigrant. He's anti-i*****l i*******t. There's a difference! The progressive media and elected dems apparently seem to think you're too stupid to know the difference! Even if this guy was pro-Trump when he went on a shooting spree, that still would not make it Trump's fault. The Dayton shooter was pro-Bernie Sanders and Pro-Elizabeth Warren. The DC shooter was also a Bernie supporter. So, why aren't we blaming Bernie Sanders? Because they both used guns? What if they both used crossbows? Would we blame Bernie Sanders because he wasn't anti-crossbow? Medical Errors are the third highest k**ler in the US behind cancer and heart disease. By progressive logic, we should be banning doctors, nurses, hospitals, and medical clinics thereby eliminating the number 3 k**ler in America because, people don't k**l people, medical care k**ls people! Wow, Beto O'Rourke could win with that one! Medicare for All! Medical Care for None! Even better, we could ban guns for cops first and watch the police bodycount skyrocket thereby appeasing Black L***s M****r! Goriest! I mean Glorious! Sorry! I keep getting off topic!

5. The progressive media deceives its viewers. - Think Farhenheit 9/11 times 10,000 news stories and that's what you get with today's progressive news media. Michael Moore cropped videos and pictures, took sentences out of context, removed controverting evidence and outright lied when the t***h didn't fit his narrative. Think the progressive media is trustworthy? Think again! Let's start with cropping! Have you ever noticed that there's a difference between footage of Fox Trump Rallies and CNN Trump Rallies? White people sometimes feel like something is different but, they usually have a hard time pinning it down. This applies especially to progressive white people. African Americans comparing the same footage from different news organizations notice it immediately. The progressive media tends to crop African Americans from Trump rallies. ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AkbfmMNVP8&t=468s ) I'm sure that they will say it was unintentional. I've personally compared several of the exact same Trump rallies from different news organizations, and it's kinda hard to believe this was unintentional. Yes, the Republican Party is not nearly as diverse as it should be but, the progressive media seems to be trying to make the Republican Party appear "whiter" than it is and, if that's true then, they are far more r****t than Trump supposedly is!
People see what they think they're going to see but, the progressive media appears to be catering to what white progressives expect to see - a couple of black people in a group of hundreds of thousands of white people.
Next, let's look at taking sentences out of contexts. Remember when the media told us Trump was a r****t because he said "All mexicans are rapists!" Progressives told me this over and over. There's only one problem. That isn't what he said. Here's what he really said ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5n17hPlsQs ) This is a generation that is challenging more and more what we're being told. We're not as dumb as Clinton era democrats who made the unconscionable choice to support a man who used his power for sexual favors and scourged a poor woman named Monica Lewinsky for fearfully choosing not to say no to the most powerful man in America at the time. We research to see if what the media tries to dumb down is accurate. If Trump said "Mexico has some good citizens but, it also has some murderers.", the progressive media t***slation would be this 'R****t Trump Calls all Mexicans Murderers!' It was progressive stereotyping like this that caused Hillary to lose the last e******n, and it was intentional misrepresentation like this by the progressive media who assumed they would be believed regardless of t***h or accuracy that has continued to erode and destroy national trust in the media as a whole. When you have a media that, not only takes sentences out of context but also, changes the sentence altogether, it's easier to believe this headline "Progressive media caught meddling in US e******ns" than this one "Russia caught meddling in US e******ns"!
Finally, let's discuss the progressive media's removal of controverting evidence and outright lying when it doesn't fit their narrative. Remember this? ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9siALpqSSKw ) The progressive mainstream media quickly took the side of Gothamist Reporter Jake Offenhartz statement that the sign was an "alt-right" plant in order to troll A****a and A****a simply failed to read the sign that three A****a members were holding because some random person told them to hold it. First of all, that's very hard to believe. Why would any A****a member much less three hold up a sign in front of the entire A****a group without bothering to read it first. Yet, it could be true. BAMN (BY Any Means Necessary), the group that organizes these A****a events has been caught trying to brainwash and intimidate students multiple times. ( https://dailycaller.com/2017/05/02/school-district-berkeley-r**t-organizers-tried-to-brainwash-students-into-left-wing-activism-video/ ) So, it is conceivable that these students have been brainwashed to the point of holding up signs without bothering to look at what they're holding first. The vast majority of A****a members have no idea what their organizers truly believe in or really stand for. The real question isn't whether this was an accident or not but whether being pro-p********a has anything to do with BAMN's A****a or not. That answer is unfortunately yes. BAMN's founders and organizers have a parent organization which funds and assists them. That organization is NAMBLA(North American Man/Boy Love Association). (https://dailycaller.com/2017/04/28/documents-tie-berkeley-r**t-organizers-to-pro-p********a-group-nambla/ ) ( https://www.dangerous.com/12031/a****a-link-nambla/ )

Yet, the progressive mainstream media intentionally ignores this and pretends that A****a is just another left wing protest group. Why? Because the group also happens to be anti-Trump. Just like Kevin Spacey is anti-Trump. Just like Harvey Weinstein is anti-Trump. As long as you are anti-Trump, the progressive media will be happy to give you a voice and ignore or forgive everything else about you. CNN will even put a w***e s*********t on tv and give him a voice simply because, he's anti-Trump. Kudos to Occasio-Cortez for calling them out on that. The media is now raging about billionaire Democrat Jeffrey Epstein's 13 month jail sentence in 2007 but, where was their rage 2007? They were conveniently silent because of Epstein's philanthropically Democratic donations. Does this sound familiar to you?

And RW media is any different how??? Fox was created for the specific reason of pandering to conservative beliefs. Breitbart has been busted as nothing but a RW propaganda machine. Yet you are going to sit there and point your crooked finger at mainstream media. That's a good one...

And as always you ignore that the MSM is all left leaning except Fox. The finger he’s pointing isn’t crooked.

The MSM isn't just leaning, it tipped over, and is lying on its left side.

One question though, If we are talking about the same ones that Trump was referring to then three of the four are trying to change the government of the country that they are a member of. The fourth is naturalized. You are right most videos can be edited to show what needs to be proven. One more point you only hear what you want to hear this is an example,

When asked about paying the fines
"got carried away he obviously loves his country, and maybe he doesn't like seeing what's happening to the country, I've actually instructed my people to look into it, yes.”

This is taken out a statement made by Trump on Meet the press.

Trump said the man “got carried away” with his actions before saying he doesn’t condone violence. “He obviously loves his country, and maybe he doesn't like seeing what's happening to the country,” Trump told the show’s host, Chuck Todd. When asked if the billionaire businessman would pay the man’s legal fees if he could, Trump said: “I've actually instructed my people to look into it, yes.”

It can be easily done all reporting agency have gotten to the point of having a lean to their reporting. That is how they make their money they report
on what will. One problem is to many people only follow one source and that source normally is the one that follows their beliefs.

A brilliant work of scholarship referencing YouTube videos and propaganda from the extreme right wing propaganda site the Daily Caller. Put up and compare the accuracy of the Daily Caller against respected news sources such as the Washington Post and New York Times or broadcast news media for that matter. The Daily Caller is a steaming wagon load of excrement in comparison to any legitimate news source.

Fox is included with the Mainstream Media because, they are, and their statements should be questioned and researched every bit as much as CNN and MSNBC. You assume I am a Republican because, I titled this topic 'How the Mostly Progressive Mainstream Media Manipulates its Viewers'. If you had watched all of the movies, you would have seen how Fox News was involved in the Media Blackout and polling misinformation of Ron Paul in 2012. Later, I laid the blame for the beginning of d******e partisanship as a whole at the Republican Party's feet when they began to enforce party toe-lining under the leadership of then House Speaker Newt Gingrich whom I detest. Partisanship is poisoning this country, Peter! Today, people spout their party's beliefs without even considering opposing beliefs or seeking the kernel of t***h found in ideas their party disagrees with. They don't bother to think for themselves. They simply dismiss the opposing idea and brand opposing people with words like r****t, c****e, homophobe, effeminate, n**i, t*****r, etc. because, it's easier to do that than consider the remote possibility that one's own views may not be wholly right or their opponent wholly wrong. Any person who has never stepped far enough back from their own political party to see faults in their own party's ideas or see even a little goodness, principle, and virtue in an opposing party's ideas isn't thinking for themselves. Anyone who thinks 50% of the country is r****t or c****es simply because they v**ed for the other candidate isn't thinking for themselves. Anyone who watches the mainstream media of both sides and fails to question what they're being told by both sides isn't thinkinng for themselves. Worse, they are just a game piece and they're being played!

You are exactly right. They dumb it down but, the more they dumb it down, the more inaccurate they get. Worse, you hear people repeating the dumbed down version as though that was what was actually said, and then they are shocked when they are told that isn't what was said at all. Not only that but, when the media intentionally distorts what was said as in "All mexicans are Rapists" and then, Trump wins the e******n, they're stuck with two difficult options - 1. Either admit they misheard or twisted the comment, (which strongly implies that the MSM, in this instance, was racially stereotyping mexicans by assuming that Trump's reference to i*****l i*******ts must refer to all mexicans) or 2. Double down on their bs and make the claim that half of America is r****t ( this option will be believed by die-hard partisans, naive trusters, and the kind of ignorant people who tend to be skeptical about mundane t***h but, then, believe in crazy off-the-wall fantasies like the earth being flat or hollow or man's trip to the moon was nothing more than a hollywood production ) - You, likely, know which option they went with.

Oh, you assumed the Daily Caller was the only source I researched before showing BAMN's ties with NAMBLA. Hold on and I'll fix that for you but, first off, I intend to correct an exaggeration of yours. Breitbart is extreme. The Daily Caller is just conservative. Second, don't assume that just because a source is conservative or liberal for that matter, that what they are saying is untrue. That's partisan thoughtlessness and you should be better than that. ( https://www.influencewatch.org/organization/by-any-means-necessary-bamn/ ) ( https://theresurgent.com/2017/05/02/the-deep-ugly-ties-of-berkeley-a****a-group-to-p********a/ ) ( https://www.independentsentinel.com/figures-berkeley-a****a-group-bamn-deeply-wedded-notorious-p*******e-group/ ) ( https://capitalresearch.org/article/anti-marxists-on-the-march/ ) ( https://www.datalounge.com/thread/19962934-we-really-need-to-talk-about-intersectionality ) - That last link I put there specifically for you, Kevyn. It's left-wing, progressive, and pro-L**T, and it specifically calls out Eileen Scheff, a BAMN founder and BAMN's legal counsel for being pro-p********a. I can also show you two other founding BAMN members who are linked to NAMBLA. Now, if you want to debate p********a itself and whether people should be for it or against it, I'd be happy to debate you but, don't blow me off simply because you assume I haven't done my research, I'm Republican or I only read conservative news. I assure you, none of those are true. I haven't been on here in a while, Kevyn. You used to be good at debating but, you appear to have become lazy since then. I know, it's been hard since T***p w*n but, it's time to put your brain back to work! :P

Bamn and NAMBLA, makes sense. When a****a split away from B*M they went to as their fighting force I guess until they learned some stuff, but they still haven't. If they had well OPSEC.

I have to agree with the last half of this statement. I see the evidence every time I read comments to certain posts on FB. But, the virulent hatred of Trump today is something I can't recall ever happening before. I see some of the same hatred in really nasty comments about both Mr. and Mrs. Obama, really not dependable words. The hatred of the Obamas is, most probably, coming from some of our actual r****ts, but still, it does not come close to the hatred for Trump demonstrated by so very many. And neither comes close to the hatred of this country as demonstrated by the many, many determined to fight for rights of foreigners instead of rights of Americans, which we see and hear many times every single day. To a very small extent I understand a person's hatred for Trump or Obama, but I find myself simply unable to understand the millions of Americans and US groups working so hard to undermine Americans and the future of this country. If there actually is some kind of international cabal intending to rule the world behind this no-guns/no military destruction of the USA, then they are succeeding greatly. But, as shown by the history of mankind, such powerful ego-maniacs never have a problem sucking in ignorant, unthinking, easily manipulated followers. With congresses and government agencies and media and academia that can no longer be trusted to act FOR our nation and our citizens, I fear greatly for the country my granddaughter's great, great grandchildren will live in, assuming it takes that many generations before the collapse of the USA. We are already no longer a "United" states and rapidly becoming less and less an American nation every year.
