I saw your screeching, yes, but that's hardly any serious attempt at discourse or support for ANYTHING you said.

I guess you just hate her, and that's that. Dixi.

There was not one time in the response to Bubba where I attacked Sharyl personally or said I hated her. You are now just being as dishonest as the media you claim is.

So do you want to refute anything I said?

I'm waiting for you establish the things you said.

2. I talked about her nutso hacking claims, her biased political reporting, her anti-vax crap and how this report doesn't really expose anything... What else do you want? She's loony. Sorry to burst your bubble.

You didn't provide any actual support for it.

I don't have any "bubble" to burst; I just don't take histrionics at face value.

Wait you want me to prove that it's not a big deal that super pacs are going to attack their political opponents really? Have you watched The news lately?

I have no idea what you're babbling about, nor do I care. Later.

She said it's a big deal that super pacs are teaming with clinton supporters and that they are attacking their opponents that is basically what the OP in this thread boils down to. That's my proof that she's loony. It's like OMG She just figured this out!!!!

No one here commenting about the content of the article?

Just attacks on the writer of said article?

Hmm.

Of course not. That would take some effort and thought only to be made a fool of.
 
ModerateGOP said:
No it's typical conspiracy bull crap. Just because you can make it sound good and cite references to other conspiracy bull crap only makes one sound reasonable, to others of that same persuasion. This is like if I were to post on my site that I have evidence Donald Trump is a lizard person because David Icke says he is.

Hardly a conspiracy if there is evidence to back it up. Everyone already knew that the MSM works with the DNC to put forth a narrative. We're just finally getting proof via their emails. Giving debate questions to DNC, advance copies of articles for corrections, working with clinton campaign to take down Sanders, the revolving door of employment. As I said, this isnt really news because everyone already assumed it was happening.

Again no proof was needed of the obvious. The Citizens United ruling makes this perfectly legal.

I guess the rumors aren't true that you've already done that.

Sharyl Attkisson is an Emmy Award winning investigative journalist highly revered in her field. That is until she complained CBS was selectively editing and shelving investigations that uncovered bad behaviors by politicians CBS aligned itself with.

Dismissing her work out of hand for purely partisan reasons doesn't change the fact presented.

She really does a nice job pulling it together and naming names.
As you'd expect, Media Matters has fingerprints all over much of it.

Guilty perps include the big ones ...
The Associated Press (AP)
The Atlantic
CNBC
CNN
DAILY KOS
HUFFINGTON POST
LA TIMES
MSNBC
NYT
POLITICO
SALON
SF CHRONICLE
WAPO
WSJ
... and many smaller news sources.

As many of us have stated repeatedly. The Mainstream Media is a propaganda mouthpiece. Likely for sale to the highest bidder. The highest bidder is the NWO oligarchs of Corporate Industry, Banking, Military, and Intelligence. I think Trump sees this and has a chance to make changes or line his pockets with more billions. I think he will go for change. I know that Hillary will not. End of story.

It's from Sharyl Attkisson. A conspiracy loon of the first order.

I used to watch Sharyl Attkisson 30 years ago, when she did morning news for CBS, back in the days of Bill Curtis and Faith Daniels. There was nothing wrong with her back then, and there's nothing wrong with her now. She just didn't get herself sucked into the big corporate machine, and remained a reasonably independent-minded journalist.
 
ModerateGOP said:
So a Super-Pac made up of Clinton Supporters went out of their way to attack Clinton opponents??? NO! Really?? Why would they do such a thing? You guys are acting like Citizens United is illegal or something...

Oh No! A Super Pac has helped write 30 articles in a year???? This all the while Trump's tweets gets more airtime than Hillary Clinton has ever given willingly... They probably had to write those articles just to get people talking about her.

You guys are really falling for this huh? I mean it can't possibly be that your brilliant choice messed up can it? No... It's that super pac that wrote 30 articles about how much better Hillary Clinton would be than a guy who willing says he likes sexually assaulting women because he is a star who gets away with it... They are the real evil ones here.

Earth to you guys, it's NOT that much better!

So then you can't disprove anything in the piece like I asked. You coulda just said that up front.

It's the way she presented the material that I disproved. AKA she's making a big deal out of nothing.

I would think the unknown $10's of millions being directed to operations like David Brock's indicates someone believes it's a very big deal and worth the investment.

Well that acknowledgement of her accuracy kinda takes that whole "discredit the messenger" tactic off the table, but your own subsequent "who cares" attitude doesn't speak well of you.

Colluding with the mainstream media to plant favorable stories, true or false, about a candidate without mentioning that the candidate was the source is a big deal.

So what? The Koch's and George Soros do the same thing. My point is, she isn't pointing out anything new.

Uh I think this is more in line with saying, "OMG the stock market is going to crash tomorrow because X company is doing bad or bad things." It in no way indicates the accuracy of the claim just because X Company is doing bad or bad things.

I think the very long list of media sources shown to favor Hillary Clinton, and the sources of propaganda they accept from the multi-million dollar operatives attached to her political machine, is a big deal all voters should be paying attention to.

The Koch Brothers should be so lucky their pittance would have such play against the colossal effort and collusion on the left.
 
ModerateGOP said:
This genius??? The one who tried to fool conservatives into thinking that she was getting hacked because something was stuck on her backspace key??? She has even less credibility than Trump. A for hire candidate for the Trump News Network.

Glass houses......

In another thread you were defending paid democrat operatives inciting violence at Trump events and then went on to claim their actions were legal because of " Citizens United "

You dont have much of a leg to stand on when it comes to criticizing someone else's intelligence.

I see.
Despite the clear examples of media corruption in the piece, your awkward attempt at an analogy shows that you simply would rather not understand.
