ironically her show was called ReidOUT :

Now the bad news is Rebecca Kutler will go down the Conga line and replace with other crazy Democrats

The 59,000 prime age viewers of a national show will have nowhere else to go - except to watch the next set of radicals that will fill that space.

MSDNC in Full Up Bloodbath Mode?
« Reply #4403 on: February 25, 2025, 12:40:04 PM »
Looks like the move Doug mentions above is turning into an all out trend: several more "Progressive" mud slingers at MSDNC are getting the boot:

I would say "don't let the door hit the ass you wear as a hat on the way out," but rattling these cages could only improve the status quo as you'd find more evidence of reasoning skills among the comatose.....

So sad, factcheck.org once again reads like an opposition opinion piece
« Reply #4407 on: March 05, 2025, 05:29:55 AM »
https://www.factcheck.org/2025/03/factchecking-trumps-address-to-congress-2/

On each point, they don't know how much either, they just know he's wrong.

How many fraudulent Social Security checks get sent out? Trump says Millions. Fact check.org says less than a million. Their source, the people that are sending out all the fraudulent checks. Good grief. Shouldn't their number be zero? They are aware of thousands of fraudulent checks?

21 million came across the border? They say false. What is their number? "That’s double the total number of people caught..." (and the estimated number of gotaways is 2 million) Sorry, isn't that an opinion , not a fact? What is the right total number? The right answer is 0. The number of hijackers it took to commit 911 was 19. Numbers in the tens of millions versus" 21 million" is not a "fact check", it's a nitpick, unless you are saying he got it about right. Crossings are down 95%? Why didn't they fact check that?

Did they fact check slotkin for saying they want nicer change? No they don't. Was 88,000 new armed IRS agents nicer change? Were Jack booted thugs on pre Dawn rage of political opponents nicer change?

Joe Biden left behind an economic catastrophe, that's a false statement? Check the exit polls. Rich, white, liberal, fake journalist should get out of their bubble and see what expenses my tenant's face with what income they make working multiple jobs. Did they not notice that interest expense on the debt more than doubled and surpassed the defense budget which is considered the sign of a failing civilization?

Orwell's 1984 was their world. We are living in the present.

Minneapolis newspaper website didn't even mention the speech this morning, except an article about Rep. Al Green being thrown out.  Strange.

To them, it's not "The President" addressing the nation, it's just Trump.

I would link but that just encourages them to stay in business.

Left Media Folding, ABC Disney shutdown "valuable resource" 538
« Reply #4411 on: March 07, 2025, 09:10:56 AM »
No they didn't sell this money losing operation, they shut it down.

The left is discovering fiscal constraints.

Nate silver made a name for this with his extreme accuracy in 2008. They missed the last election cycle nationwide by seven points! Wrong in every state and every demographic. Just like their network.

Infowars reporter murdered

I regard Infowars as a scurrilous site, but this is worth noting:

WH Correspondents dinner's latest woke comedianne

Well I would think DJT might attend if the comedian headliner was Jimmy Failla who spent ample time insulting , deservably, the MSM instead of him sitting there insulting the President and those who support him.

A Triple Dose of Fake News
« Reply #4416 on: March 19, 2025, 04:15:53 PM »
Several elements of this entry are worth perusing, though this is the only one that fits this thread:

Triple Fake News Wednesday!

1. DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard is on an official trip to India, where she said that President Trump is “very good friends” with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The A.P. reported that she said Trump is very good friends with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Gabbard’s spokeswoman called it “total trash” and said, “This is why no one trusts the maliciously incompetent and purposefully bias(ed) media. If this isn’t a clear example of pushing a solely political narrative, then nothing is.” The A.P. retracted the story.

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2025/03/18/the-ap-just-proved-again-why-theyre-banned-from-the-white-house-press-pool-n2653986

2. Politico ran a story claiming that a retired Army officer was withdrawn from contention for an intelligence position under DNI head Tulsi Gabbard because of his criticism of Israel. Gabbard’s spokeswoman said she told Politico this story was fake, but they ran it anyway and said they would “update it with my comment. Doesn’t work that way when the entire story is false.”

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/mattvespa/2025/03/18/dni-spox-calls-out-politico-n2653727

You know, we’re beginning to suspect Politico isn’t worth the millions of dollars the government pays to subscribe to it.

3. The Daily Beast reports that a new book will claim that President Trump “offered a female congresswoman his bed, as long as she kept it a secret from his wife.” The congresswoman was reportedly Anna Paulina Luna, who slammed the story as “trash.”

She said she was on Trump’s plane, “very pregnant” and experiencing medical symptoms. Trump respectfully offered her the use of the private bedroom in front of her husband, as well as access to the medical team on board. She called it “disgusting” that the author never asked her for comment, adding, “If people in POTUS’ orbit are talking to this author, they need to be cut off immediately. This is gross.”

https://x.com/realannapaulina/status/1901716486198043055

We considered making up a really nasty story about this author, but then we realized we don’t even know who it is. Not that that would have deterred this author from printing it.

"Photogenic dunce"(s) on the big shows, when are the corrections episodes??
« Reply #4417 on: March 20, 2025, 05:39:11 PM »
Cruel commentary, but not wrong.

https://spectator.org/how-much-longer-cbs-going-carry-margaret-brennan/

Did she really say free speech caused the holocaust - and she still occupies the chair and the microphone.

Do they ever do a corrections show? Oops the crime rate really did go up, Russian collusion was a hoax, it wasn't a 'tax cut for the rich', covid came from the lab, that wasn't the cleanest election ever, excess spending does cause inflation, oops. Oops, that 6 month fetus really is a human. 50 million butchered. Oops

Media, Washington Post suddenly worried about conflict of interest
« Reply #4418 on: March 24, 2025, 06:31:09 AM »
https://archive.is/2025.03.23-122142/https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/03/23/elon-musk-doge-china-conflicts-of-interest/
-------------------
89 long internet pages of media bias here with 1.3 million reads, yet they just keep doing it!

Strange they missed 12 of the last 16 years of conflict of interest, asleep at the wheel. Isn't the entire usaid budget all conflict of interest? Cf. Senator and Mrs Whitehouse Democrat-Rhode Island. Hillary's approval of the uranium one deal, conflict of interest anyone? Washington Post Pulitzer Prize for the Russia Russia Collusion Hoax, conflict of interest, ya think? Destroy a President, truth be damned. Sorry I missed the award-winning correction series when it was all proven false.

President Obama's IRS Commissioner visited the White House 250 times in the year they were caught targeting conservative groups. "No joke". Where is the transcript of those meetings? Didn't that happen in Washington right under the Post's nose? But it's end of the world when Musk speaks with a cabinet secretary in private, as is his job. Sorry but I don't think Musk and Hegseth were writing business contracts in private. Spending without transparency was the Washington policy before Musk arrived on the scene. He's the one fighting it.

Democrat activists with bylines projecting.
