Thread: TYT's Cenk asks media, 'Are you doing your job AT ALL?'

Again, you came into this thread making claims about TYT's bias, how they are genocide deniers, how it's all about sabotaging Mayor Pete because he's a pragmatist. Yet you haven't done the bare minimum effort to effectively participate in this discussion or substantiate your own points. So I would turn it around and ask you why you're not interested enough to do the research.

I mean they're staunchly progressive FDR democrats (and are upfront about this), they're not going to:

A: Blast candidates they agree with more than those they don't, but they can and do critique Warren and Sanders.

B: Routinely critique candidates that don't have the support to be credible contenders.

Overall and either way, there's not nearly the level of coverage of Buttigieg that would suggest 'obsession'. They clearly (and justifiably IMO) dislike the guy, but that's about it.


As to 'linking without context', if you wanted an explanation of the findings of TYT's investigative journalism without supporting them via incrementing their clicks/views, and why Buttigieg doesn't really come out of this looking good, I've provided it. The majority of the first article is relevant. The summation of the second article is that the recordings weren't necessarily unlawful.

With all these deeply flawed Democrats running, the only good choice is to KEEP AMERICA GREAT in 2020!

Show me specifically where I was wrong when I said the sheriff illegally taped officers.

The pride thing was you and your inability to follow links.

'I won't give them my click!'

Please.

I didn't know sticking by principles is related to pride.

You brought up the point, it's your responsibility to know what you're talking about.

I told you why I haven't been giving TYT my clicks. It is not my responsibility to monitor it whenever Cenk changes his opinion. You guys are being ridiculous.

Everyone has to jump through your hoops, and in the end, it's never good enough. If they changed the name you'd just move the goal post.

He expects Washington to change the name of their team. He should set the example.

I am not necessarily disputing this point, because I frankly don't care about the legality of the recording. And as far as I know, Boykins hasn't even been charged. The investigators told him to hang onto the recordings for their investigation.

I'm more interested in the content of the recordings and what they say about the racism of the police officers and the cartoonish malleability of Buttigieg by his donors. That your only takeaway is the potential legality of the recording, and not the underlying content, is very, very bizarre.

Your principle in not following sourced information that is actually being used in the South Bend investigation.

I told you why I haven't been giving TYT my clicks. It is not my responsibility to monitor it whenever Cenk changes his opinion. You guys are being ridiculous.

So its up to us to disprove your point which you are not remotely invested enough in to properly research.

^ That's a more sensible position than that of some "progressives"!

That is a significant reason, but not the only reason, I have no respect for TYT. Just look at the origin of that name!

Here we go.
