This is the person that Civ calls on for information…



How about a follow-up Ron?



Just remember folks, when some of these windbags criticize your media, this is what they follow…

To play devils advocate, have you seen some of the sources that others use here?

Does it really matter? That's the point I'm trying to make. People have sources and the opposing view thinks the source sucks. We are really in a screwed up time…

It's really sad! We used to argue on the margins, now, we argue on everything!

Leadership. Also, anyone who has access to a X account can use that platform and call it " news ". Lot of times do we even know who runs the account?

X is nothing more than a chatter place... I don't get my news from X; rather, I look at a few accounts I find amusing. Some, probably do get their news on X. That said, it doesn't make the post any less credible than something like MSNBC or CNN... Most of these people are just talking heads, with an opinion.

True news doesn't exist anywhere, anymore, for either side..,.

A lot of people do a lot of different things than I do. I'm not sure I know what the point is…

Good lord, every comment isn't a dig at you. Go take a look at some of the crazy X accounts that folks post on this site.

I'm not taking this or any comments as digs on me. I'm really not. Comments are made and I find a lot of them to be outlandish to a degree. I certainly understand that people post different accounts than I do and perhaps you do.

My point is that an opinion can be made that many sources can be and are viewed as crap. We (all of us) for the most part throw out others sources as crap. A source is a source whether any of us like it or not. Civ uses Filipkowski. I think he's crap. FoxNews is referred to as crap!

Some people want a uniting VP for Trump. I think he tried that last time with many appointees. I think It got him nowhere.

So, what's happened? I can only speculate…

Trump got nowhere cause of the revolving door during his administration. One minute the person was the smartest ever, then said person was dumb and should have never been in the position. I think your average person got tired of it.

To a degree, I agree with you. Now, ask where he got those people? Trump was not a DC person; so, someone had to help him vet those people, right? If you agree, who helped vet them?

I wasn't apart of the White House staff so I have no idea. But the optics to your average person didn't look good. When I post here, I'm trying to get people to look at the issue as a average voter. Often times we live in a chamber. I completely get your point of view, the problem is Trump can't attack voters who he needs.

LOLOL

Exaggerate much Cary?

I've posted a grand total of one of Filipowski's tweets on here, ever.

And in that tweet he was quoting Newsmax, a news source that many/most righties on here agree with or at least don't have a problem with.

And most importantly, the Newsmax report Filipowski tagged was factual.

2000 Mules distribution was terminated because the producers and distributors couldn't produce evidence in court to defend themselves against defamation lawsuits filed by those in the film.

Like I said before, you can think Filipowski is a partisan hack all you want but that doesn't mean he and Newsmax were wrong here.

Exactly.

Randos of all stripes that don't have to adhere to any semblance of journalistic standards aren't news. But they can be good fun and they can also push you to go searching for a topic to explore it more to see what the real/full scoop is.

Actually, I had a life to attend, then went to bed. Civ, only one post, by Filipkowski? Well, perhaps this thread needs to be locked and deleted.

As far as Newmax, yes, I make them my morning news. Yes, they are partisan! I do not watch anymore than one hour, each morning, during the week. After that, when I can, I watch Steve Bannon's program, on Real Americas Voice. In the evening, I watch Tim Poole on his YouTube channel. Occasionally, I will watch the local news (usually WRAL), for weather, and some local news.

Now you know my means of news and talk.

As far as how I interpret these news and talk programs, well, I know which ones are partisans (they all are) and I am ok with that. BTW, Steve Bannon and Tim Poole uses news clips from other sources and plays them, so we can see what and how the other sources present the story.

For me, it's truly fascinating how two different sources present the same news, so differently. In fact, as I type this, Newsmax is showing excerpts from MSNBC on the current Wall Street Journals article on Biden's competence.

Completely agree on how a story is reported by different organizations.

Completely agree on how a story is reported by different organizations.

Partisan news is fine, and fully in line with our nation's media for the last 200 years. You can look at a few different sources across the spectrum and still get a pretty accurate worldview.

People confusing editorial pieces (that now dominate cable) for news or even worse getting their "news" from randos on Twitter is the problem, not partisan news.

This is the person that Civ calls on for information…

Just remember folks, when some of these windbags criticize your media, this is what they follow…

LOLOL

Exaggerate much Cary?

I've posted a grand total of one of Filipowski's tweets on here, ever.

And in that tweet he was quoting Newsmax, a news source that many/most righties on here agree with or at least don't have a problem with.

And most importantly, the Newsmax report Filipowski tagged was factual.

2000 Mules distribution was terminated because the producers and distributors couldn't produce evidence in court to defend themselves against defamation lawsuits filed by those in the film.

Like I said before, you can think Filipowski is a partisan hack all you want but that doesn't mean he and Newsmax were wrong here.
He quoted NewsMax, which I thought the hard Trump folks loved.
Ha! I thought so too!
That is being ignored for a reason.
Actually, I had a life to attend, then went to bed. Civ, only one post, by Filipkowski? Well, perhaps this thread needs to be locked and deleted.

As far as Newmax, yes, I make them my morning news. Yes, they are partisan! I do not watch anymore than one hour, each morning, during the week. After that, when I can, I watch Steve Bannon's program, on Real Americas Voice. In the evening, I watch Tim Poole on his YouTube channel. Occasionally, I will watch the local news (usually WRAL), for weather, and some local news.

Now you know my means of news and talk.

As far as how I interpret these news and talk programs, well, I know which ones are partisans (they all are) and I am ok with that. BTW, Steve Bannon and Tim Poole uses news clips from other sources and plays them, so we can see what and how the other sources present the story.

For me, it's truly fascinating how two different sources present the same news, so differently. In fact, as I type this, Newsmax is showing excerpts from MSNBC on the current Wall Street Journals article on Biden's competence.

I get it, it's as old as the day is long. As for the X " news " I just laugh it off.

Any chart that has CNN in the left "leaning" column and Fox News in the "far" right column is automatically not a legitimate source. I did note that at least the chart does now admit ABC, CBS and NBC as left "leaning" whereas previously it had all three in the center.

Chart itself may be on a different thread, but you'll know what I'm referring to at least.

CNN has definitely had more conservative content in the last couple of years.

Regardless, being pedantic about the chart is silly. You can't make a chart like this and have everyone agree whether this news source or that one, is sorta left, or far left.

Broadly, CNN is clearly left. Fox is right. There are other, more centrists sources.

Just pick a few of these sources from different columns and you get a pretty balanced take.
