If You Really Had Good Sources... Version 2

I don't get my information from youtube or any other video source. That's because videos are designed to influence you via human emotion. When someone tells me they "did their own research" and directs me to a youtube video, I immediately dismiss their source. It's unreliable.

I don't watch any documentaries for the same reason. They tailor their content to evoke an emotional response from the viewer. I learned that lesson from Michael Moore. Since he slants his data, he's unreliable.

Know what else is unreliable? Any sort of talk radio or talk show. Gutfeld? Seriously? I don't get my info from Stephen Colbert or the Daily Show. Know why? They are mainly comedy and aim their content to a particular audience, just like Gutfeld on Fox does.

I do not get my news from the AmericanThinker

But it lead me to the Chicago suntimes.

Gunfighting is now ok in Chicago.

" prosecutors specifically said they weren’t charging the 17-year-old suspect with murder because the fatal fight amounted to mutual combat."...

I gave you the Gutfeld example because I knew you would say what you just said. You can say what comes out of his mouth is false or fake news, but you would first have to prove it. I gave you the option of picking any date for any show... take your pick and prove me wrong. Just because it's comedy and just because he regularly destroys liberal narratives, that doesn't mean he's wrong. Like I said, I don't use Gutfeld as a source, but I do agree with his take on the big stories of the day.

Would you ever be willing to watch or read a few minutes of anything you do don't trust ? I'd be more than happy to if you started a thread or even posted something in this one. If you're not willing to ever be challenged, I'm not sure why you are here.

BTW, someone else on this board once told me that TV news wasn't as accurate as print news. I disagree, especially when it comes to interviews of politicians or other people in powerful places. Print news goes through an editing process that often leaves out important information that would hurt the desired narrative. Can you imagine if during Trump's presidency you only read the words a writer chose to give you and you never watched and listened to the words coming out of his mouth? Print can never duplicate what video and audio can provide.

Rick, I enjoy some of the Gutfeld monologues. I do think his show would be much better if he would cut out all the pervasions and stop portraying himself and his panel as a bunch of degenerates.

Greg does have a weird ongoing joke about himself having some gay tendencies that is getting a little old but for the most part, he and his guests are pretty well informed and get most of the issues right. I just like they way they all have a good time and it’s a lot more funny than the other late night shows. It is one of the few shows on Fox that doesn’t have a left wing contributor’s opinion but that would prevent the show from being funny. That’s why I don’t think Bill Mahers’s show is very funny when they try to beat up on the one conservative, there’s just too much anger being generated instead of comedy.
