Have you noticed the new media mantra ? The trick is for the commentator to quote something President Trump says and add the words, "without proof". An example might be, "The president said today, without proof, that the immigrant caravan may contain dangerous criminals." I don't recall them saying, "President Obama said today, without proof, that if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor." | ||

Even Fox News used it in a story about Trump yesterday or the day before.

Wait, what? |
All those poor little men of fighting age couldn’t possibly contain criminals, drug cartel members, gang bangers, or even terrorists, could they? By law of averages, they are most certainly among their number. Hell, I have all the proof I need when they are burning our flag, flying theirs, and demanding unrestricted entry that they are criminals. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

Yes, it is common now. AP is one of the worst in their written 'news', they use it constantly. "While not every Democrat is a horse thief, every horse thief is a Democrat." HORACE GREELEY | |||

Just more proof that the media truly are the enemy of the people. 1930's Germany has nothing on the modern American leftist and their "journalism". | |||

Most of the mainstream media are SCUM BAGS and in the bag for liberal, progressive democrats, socialist, illegals, MS 13, trans/gay/lesbian, ANTIFA and every other anti American fringe and radical group. They should be shot with shit and killed for stinking! | |||

Since Roger Ailes was forced out, Fox News has begun to drift downward. Certainly "anchor" Shepard Smith is leftist and lets it show every day.
The MSM is Pravda for the DNC. . | |||

And yet the worthless goddamed media will report all kinds of stories and rumors “without proof”. Fuck The Media Their double standard is infuriating. It’s mainly why I have cut off my TV, and quit listening to major media outlets. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The price of liberty and even of common humanity is eternal vigilance | |||

Conveniently located directly above the center of the Earth |
....[overlooking the entire month of September] claims by a private party against a Supreme Court nominee being entirely WITHOUT PROOF conveniently ignored----- The Media continues to act much like a pithed frog, demonstrating their current function and effectiveness doesn't require any higher level frog-brain to produce the reflex spasm of their audience/cheering throngs. **************~~~~~~~~~~ "I've been on this rock too long to bother with these liars any more." ~SIGforum advisor~ "When the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change, then change will come."~~sigmonkey | |||

My rule of thumb is this. Anything negative about the President and his administration that is reported by the corrupt media is not to believed. Fake news, twisted facts, bent truth, all designed to bring him down, and still, he's standing tall. Fuck the media, or should I say, the God Bless President Trump! Q | |||

True. We keep a supply of CSI-Miami reruns recorded to watch when he's on.

Too old to run, too mean to quit! |
I don't even watch Fox anymore! Too much wasted time waiting for some actual news.

Just think of the media as demoKKKrat activists that call themselves journalists. ...let him who has no sword sell his robe and buy one. Luke 22:35-36 NAV "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves." Matthew 10:16 NASV | |||

I remember my dad, over 40 years ago, getting torqued when the TV anchorman said something like, "President Nixon, in his press conference yesterday, claimed that..." His main objection: it's a mealy-mouthed way to call someone a liar. My point being that media has long used language to convey their biases. | |||

"Without proof", eh? So does this mean that TV talking heads are going to stop asking interviewees that tired old form of BS question: "People are saying X, Y and Z. How do you respond to that?" Just once, I'd like for someone to respond by insisting that the talking head tell them specifically what people are actually saying X, Y and Z. I'm convinced that talking heads are just making those questions up and hoping that they can plausibly insist that its a valid question. | |||

Wait, what? |
That, or simply reply "Shouldn't you be reporting the news instead of trying to make it up?". On live TV would be best... “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

Agreed; Fox News is no better. All they are is eyeball glue through hyperbolic tantrums so they can expose you to their advertisers, and collect their revenue. #Stop taking the bait.
