Memorial Day weekend fakery

I saw that happen on Twitter. And some people still swear that Fox News is the only biased news. :roll:

Slow news day or not, the mindless leftist tards will have SOMETHING to pout about, even if they have to fabricate it.
 
All the news that's fit to print... and some that really shouldn't have been. ;)

Embarrassment for New York Times as top editor falls for old photo amid weekend of misleading anti-Trump tweets | Fox News

Looks like the MSM had a field day that backfired.

I don't recall any of the posters who make threads like this doing the same when right wing media is caught lying or making a mistake (which is always claimed to be a deliberate lie when it's left-leaning). So, meh...

:shrug:

Of course, you haven't exactly given the NYT time to respond and they're good about admitting misstatements and correcting them. So, double meh...



Basically, if you want people to get worked up who aren't the sort of people that read the thread title then post a generalized "I hate librul" rant, you've got to be more consistent. Call out right-lean media when it does stuff like this.






Oh right, and:


Correction: this link, which was going around this morning, is from 2014. Still disturbing, of course, but only indirectly related to current situation. My bad (and a good reminder not to RT things while distracted w family on the weekend). https://t.co/zbM4I0woUF

You made this thread today. Why did you omit Silverstein's admission from two days ago from your OP? It's even in the Fox article. Seems rather important to follow "he did it" with "and then he admitted his mistake". No?

Because doing so would destroy American's agenda here. The NYT admits their errors. American doesn't.
 
Hum. I note that it was a tweet by a NYT employee with their personal account. It didn't get published by the NYT. It was not from the NYT official twitter feed.

Yes, he is an editor, and Yes, he should have known better. However, it was as a private citizen, and not as the NYT.

Not only that.. it was the editor, in his private twitter, not the NYT's twitter, nor was it published in the NYT.

Silverstain can kiss our asses. It demonstrates the unrelenting rabid Left. Leap before thinking, that's what the Left has done since Nov 2016. I'll continue calling you Lefties out on this **** until you stop.

It's never been enough for the Left, unless it's one of their own.

I didn't expect you to be able to explain why you omitted the information that reveals your OP to be stupid hackery.

An apology is nothing more than CYA. So now it's explained to you.

Yeah, you don't need to keep doing the thing where you keep replying with snarky but meaningless declarations of some imagined victory.

Your thread was crap. You were called on it. Now you can do the usual thing and go start another one.

I just might start another thread, it certainly keeps you busy and triggered.

I think it important to note in todays society, your private twitter account doesn't seem to matter, they hold it as an extension of the employer. Look at Trumps being sued for blocking people, and Roseanne being fired.
