My youngest daughter is a senior in high school and is writing an essay about this subject so I was curious how you all get your information and make your conclusions.
bolded......relate this to your daughter.....RESEARCH the backers ($$$$$) of the media sources she is studying.....then research those names for THEIR beliefs and platforms
they are promoting....money is the all mighty agenda in this modern world.
I prefer Stratfor,WSJ ,Business insider,WaPo,but I bounce around a bunch,,,just to keep it interesting.
Interesting that you list WAPO after saying research the backers. Does that mean you trust Bezos? I personally think of WaPo as the mouthpiece of the CIA.

I agree TM, not telling a story that should be told is the same as lying about a story. The whole Russia fraud is the prime example of anti-journalism. Almost zero reporting and investigation into the biased investigators, the bullshit dossier, and finally the unwillingness to admit their narrative was wrong for more than two years. These same hacks that ignored all the secrecy and executive privilege used in the Fast and Furious gun scandal are now flipping out about obstruction when there was no underlying crime and Mueller was never obstructed from completing the investigation. Journalism is mostly dead and I doubt it will ever be brought back to life.FredHayek wrote:

Great post. I have seen a couple of examples of stories in the Washington Post that seem to defend Amazon.com. I don't know if Jeff Bezos directly ordered those stories or if his employees were trying to make him happy. But I would tell your daughter to be very suspicious. Not only with the stories that are written, but also the ones that they refuse to write. I honestly believe much of the press treated the Obama administration with kid gloves, because they liked the man or they were worried they would be labeled racist if they criticized him and his policies. Some of the best reporting from that time period came from the Far Left press because they were unwilling to cover up his misdeeds.

All the president's tools are stuck on the false narrative of the Barr summary, but that's in the process of crashing down around them at this very instant.Rick wrote: The whole Russia fraud is the prime example of anti-journalism.

How was Mueller obstructed from completing his investigation? Did Trump destroy piles of evidence like Hillary did?Brandon wrote: The tools should read the report. It details the idiot king's failures to fully cooperate.
