Why Do People Hate Big Media?
By Mitch Berg
Here’s one huge reason:
And beyond that, speaking for myself (and I suspect an awful lot of us)? Because they can say things like the WaPo’s Applebaum says in the video above out one side of their greasy maw, and ignore the fact that they said this out the other side, in public, with their own mouths.
They truly think you’re all idiots.

Look up smug or condescending in the dictionary and you see a picture of that c**t. It’s Anne Applebaum. Tater peed his panties too when the very respectful and polite questioning was directed his way.
Liars, all of them, just plain bald faced liars.

A seminar on disinformation becoming nothing but disinformation – is not in itself a problem. The problem is that the planners expect us all to deny the irony.

Here is the background of the event – priceless:

At this point, what difference does it make? [sarcasm]

In some cases though, maybe the minions are waking up?

The difference between Jared Kushner and Hunter Biden is that Hunter never worked in the White House or for the Federal Government. Yet not a peep from the MAGA crowd about this.
“Before committing $2 billion to Mr. Kushner’s fledgling firm, officials at a fund led by the Saudi crown prince questioned taking such a big risk.”

Jared Kushner was not an addle-pated junkie who sold access to his politician father and split the proceeds with him.
Emery is a dunce.

The magic word of the day is “misinformation.”
These people really need to learn a little philosophy or literature.
“Information” and “misinformation” are simply labels we apply to things. The most rigorous definition of “misinformation” depends on the motivation of the provider. If I really believe that ivermectin is a good treatment for covid, it is not misinformation if say that it is.
And this is the problem of the elites. They desperately want to define what is truth, but they have no idea what the truth is. The closer that they get to it, the more it frightens them, because the truth is that their elite status is itself a lie.

Shapiro had this clip and another one on his show last week. The other one is my personal favorite.
Conservative student asks Brian Stelter about Stelter’s list of erroneous stories on his show [Un]Reliable Sources during Trump Presidency.
Stelter, “Time to break for lunch.”

Woolly is moving into an elite tier of posting. One day soon, he’ll produce his “Your Industry Can Burn” or “Straightforward from here” or “It’s Time for Some Game Theory.” This is almost there, but it’s still got the stink of a rough draft on it.
I wonder if the Saudis realize that Kushner is about as “smart” with business as Trump is? Kusher, like Trump was a trust fund baby born on third base with a less than impressive business history. Like Trump he’s been propped up all his life and isn’t that different than his jail bird convicted father. His main “value” has been in access to United States intelligence and security records while he was an “unpaid” “advisor” who made over $640 million in his short years at the White House somehow. One wonders, given all the classified information illegally removed from the White House by Trump, what the Saudis are really buying?

Blather overflowing today.
One day, Emery will make a coherent, on-topic comment.
But that day is not this day.
Today we get a lecture about the Evil Jew, Kushner.

Only in fringe Lefty land do you get a comparison between Jared Kushner, businessman, investor, Trump son in law, and and one time adviser to Trump, and Hunter Biden, influence peddler and crack addict with legal role in the Biden administration.
A better comparison would be between Jared Kushner and Bill Clintton son in law Marc Mezvinsky, with the provision that Kushner is more successful.

Ha! Emery, you just described many of your DemoCommie heroes that were either born or married (read climate propagandist John Kerry, for one) into their wealth.

Kushner cashes in on being “foreign policy adviser” to his father-in-law with a $2 billion investment from a fund led by the Saudi crown prince. His security clearance application was rejected twice because of suspected foreign influence. His father in-law overrode the career officials and gave him access to top secret info.
Who wants to talk more about Hunter Biden’s laptop?

That wretched twat won a Pulitzer Prize. Along the way, the reprobate left has not forgotten to destroy they credibility and prestige of award winning acts. The Nobel Prize is a joke in the current year, valuable only for the lucre that comes with it.
Everything a leftist touches is instantly befouled.

Can’t wait to see what Musk has in store for Twister. He saw right through Agarwal’s ruse of a board seat offer. I am sure Elon can scrape up enough scratch for another 4.5% stake. Then things will get interesting, or so I hope.

@jpa — Tech billionaires tend to have a rosy view of the system that worked for them. They don’t want to be constrained (because they were successful), and tend to fall for Ayn Randian panegyrics about their own excellence (hence the libertarianism).
Success in one area also makes them convinced they are right in all areas. It’s human nature, and a common byproduct of success.
Musk is a great businessman. That doesn’t mean he understands the human tendency to align beliefs with peers, which in an internet world is more diffuse than when peers were people with whom one maintained physical contact.
The propensity for outright conspiracy theory — QAnon, flat earth, covid vaccine paranoia — is much higher than it used to be because people can find supporting content for anything that confirms their beliefs. And people love to have their beliefs confirmed.

Poor little troll is peddling his whataboutism tricycle for all he’s worth.

rAT is inside the heads of tech Billionaires…it’s a gift that allows him to mAke MoVEs and take ProFITz with an 80 IQ, and an alphabet soup of personality and mental disorders.
lmao.

Apparently Musk decided against joining the Twitter board. The seat came with strings attached: including an obligation not to acquire TT shares (above a ceiling) for as long as Musk was a board member plus 90 days. He no longer claims to be a passive investor, and he realizes the Board would not play ball.
Now he can buy shares and use Twitter aggressively for Tesla and other needs without any Compliance and oversight. Easier to piss from the outside the tent rather than inside.

Now that’s a metaphor.

^ Filing a 13-F and then refiling with a 13-D. Announcing you are joining the board and then pulling out. This would be seen as erratic and amateurish behavior if witnessed from anyone not worth hundreds of billions.
