Fox News’ Howard Kurtz says company won’t let him cover Dominion voting case
Bkk Brian replied to Scott's topic in World News
Hardly surprising when yesterday new court docs reveal how Murdoch has threatened to fire anyone who told lies on the Dominion case, so does that mean a mass layoff of hosts.....lol "News Corp chief Rupert Murdoch testified in a deposition that any Fox News executive who knowingly allows lies to be broadcast should be “reprimanded” or fired, a blockbuster new court filing states." “They should be reprimanded – They should be reprimanded, maybe got rid of,” Murdoch said during a two-day deposition earlier this year. https://lawandcrime.com/2020-election/dominion-bombshells-reveal-how-rupert-murdoch-paul-ryan-and-foxs-top-lawyer-secretly-reacted-to-trumps-wild-election-claims/ -
Carried out by researchers, despite claiming to have no conflicts of interest, are affiliated with BIRD (British Ivermectin Recommendation Development) Group. Another dodgy meta analysis study, I note you missed out in your quotes what it goes on to say: "We included preprint and unpublished data from completed but not yet published trials There are a number of limitations with this review. Several of the studies contributing data did not provide full descriptions of methods, so assessing risk of bias was challenging." And from an independent fact check Study’s underpinnings Experts said the trials that the study relies on are not high quality. Dr. Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Health Security, said the study is a meta-analysis (an analysis of other analyses) "whose strength is dependent on the underlying studies that comprise it." Some of the studies analyzed in the ivermectin meta-analysis were not peer reviewed, said Dr. David Gorski, a professor of surgery and oncology at Wayne State University and chief of breast surgery at the Karmanos Cancer Institute, who has criticized the June study. "Pooling data from a large number of small, low-quality clinical trials does not magically create one large, high-quality clinical trial," wrote Gorski, who is also managing editor of Science-Based Medicine, a website that evaluates medical claims.

Why would I answer it when I've already covered it in detail in a previous post? Too much for you to scroll back? -

But its not about you, Rasmussen Poll interviewed black people and it does offend them. Rasmussen would be well aware of that, hence the outcome of the poll -

Well until you can verify your false information. It remains just that. False as UN confirms

More lies there were never 14,000 Russian civilians killed, infact civilian casualties before their illegal invasion last year were minimal as you can see in the chart below. There were 3,404 killed though which included Ukrainian civilians and that figure includes those from flight MH17 that was shot down by Russian backed separatist forces. This from UN official figures: pdf

You should check on who did not follow Minsk A major blockage has been Russia’s insistence that it is not a party to the conflict and therefore is not bound by its terms. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/2/9/what-is-the-minsk-agreement-and-why-is-it-relevant-now https://www.chathamhouse.org/2020/05/minsk-conundrum-western-policy-and-russias-war-eastern-ukraine-0/summary Of course Ukraine also had its failures in its implementation

Good opinion here from Louise Mensch (ex UK MP) that echos your views: in my view @Rasmussen_Poll are now just hard-right trolls, and it’s glorious that they have nuked one of their own Trumpy Bear kind. “It’s OK to be white” is a racist phrase. Disagreeing with it, as I do, ≠ you dislike white people. It just means you recognize it as racism. the reason that “white lives matter” and “it’s OK to be white” are racist is that both phrases falsely imply that society structurally threatens white people. It doesn’t. White people have never suffered racial violence from excessive policing, and we still don’t. it’s easier just to explain this screamingly obvious truth than to listen to the reply guys telling my milk-white Anglo-Saxon self that AKSHULLY, all God’s children are equal. So we are, but whites get treated better than blacks in infinite ways. And men better than women. So when Rasmussen Troll asks black people if they disagree with the phrase “it’s OK to be white” the results don’t measure whether or not those people ‘dislike whites’ or not. I disagree with the phrase too. It implies imaginary antiwhite racism that doesn’t exist. -

If you take into account my initial post, the response to it and then my reply post you would see what my meaning was: Anyway lengthy transcript here from those who identify as Jews and what they themselves think: Episode 5: Are Jews White? https://www.associationforjewishstudies.org/publications-research/adventures-in-jewish-studies-podcast/are-jews-white-transcript -

Its complex and pulling the term technically was not the intention of my post and perhaps should have been perception. These are rough sketches of two camps, concentrated at the margins of U.S. political culture. On the extreme right, Jews are seen as impure—a faux-white race that has tainted America. And on the extreme left, Jews are seen as part of a white-majority establishment that seeks to dominate people of color. Taken together, these attacks raise an interesting question: Are Jews white? https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/12/are-jews-white/509453/ The majority of U.S. Jews identify as White. But in recent years, journalists, scholars and Jewish community leaders have wondered about the percentage of U.S. Jews who are “Jews of color,” “people of color” or “BIPOC” (an acronym for Black, Indigenous and people of color), and who should be included in these groups https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2021/05/11/race-ethnicity-heritage-and-immigration-among-u-s-jews/ -

Ignorance? Of course it was racially motivated but the majority of jews are technically white and certainly in the US the majority class themselves as white. -

Your bookmark collection must be interesting, its a false equivalence to the neo nazi groups I was referring to such as the proud boys who attack blacks through violence or hate speech. Although I accept I should have probably used the term "far-right, neo-fascists" The Nazi party your referring to was to do with white on white violence/killings as was the holodomor genocide. -

Agreed yes but to accept your opinion then you would be labelled as woke and right wingers will avoid that at all cost, its similar to those who spout "it ok to be white" or "white lives matter". White people have never suffered the extreme excessive violence from policing or neo nazi groups. -
Russian tourists are fleeing to Thailand to escape the war in Ukraine or look to move to the Southeast Asian country. Thailand has become a haven for Russian visitors who are looking to escape Moscow’s war in Ukraine that has now entered its second year. Visitors are in Thailand but are they fleeing Russia too. Now thousands of Russians are looking for a new home, fearing economic woes in Russia and a military draft because of the Kremlin’s war in Ukraine. https://www.voanews.com/a/thousands-of-russians-flee-to-thailand-to-escape-war-/6979011.html
