Yes the thread is about CNN but CNN is representative of the access or legacy media as a whole e.g. ABC's The View and said legacy media is still spewing out the same old tired rhetoric that the American voting public has dismissed overwhelmingly.

Did I say it was deliberately released? Not manufactured? So no gain of function research. It was Obama that stopped this in the US and that's why it went to Wuhan and Fauci was complicit in this. To say you don't know where it came from and saying it's zoonotic in nature ("not manufactured") is to ignore all evidences that says it came from a lab where gain of function research was taking place. As I posted it's no longer a conspiracy theory. It's widely accepted as MOST likely. Of course all actual evidence was destroyed by the CCP (why would they do that?) and there has been ZERO evidence of the wet market origin.

Ah! Conspiracy theories. Funny you mention that as conspiracy theories in relation to covid are no longer conspiracy theories. Do you still think SARS-CoV-2 is zoonotic and originated in a wet market? Remember saying that it originated in the Wuhan lab was deemed a conspiracy theory and any mention that this was the case was censored as such. Now it's the overwhelmingly accepted that the Wuhan lab was indeed the source of the outbreak.

Let's hope he opens a full investigation into the last four years. Listening to the media the term anti-vaxxer is being used but this just isn't the case. I have previously posted where he clearly states he's not an anti-vaxxer. It's the same demonising language used against anyone critical of the mRNA gene therapy. Don't trust mRNA jabs then you're an anti-vaxxer. Complete nonsense. What's needed is actual independent and transparent science.

I look at these sort of things and wonder about the carbon footprint it made to make this. Bit of cost benefit analyses. Bit like EV's. I wonder how many of the faithful think about the coal they're burning whilst sipping on their latte which has been made by burning coal whilst being good environmentally aware people whilst charging their car at a station from electricity produced by coal. It would be a good study to break down EV ownership across the voting public in the US election. What do you reckon Dems or Republicans for the highest % for EV ownership?

Equality now ain't what the feminists of old were on about that's for sure. Equality now means DEI for the sake of DEI. Males in women's sports. Children should have the right to identify as any "gender" they want. Pushing "gender dysphoria" and it's consequences on young children (criminal IMHO). Transsexual literature should legally not be excluded from school libraries etc., etc. I'm really angry and quite bored with this whole woke agenda BS pushed by a very small, aggressive and radical minority and accepted by governments and idiots as the right and just way forward.. Hopefully what is about to happen under Trump will put and end to this madness and not just in the US. I'm looking at you Canada, UK, Australia etc. Time to dump the irrational woke agenda.

TOO BIG TO RIG. I do wonder, however, if 2020 was reversed in 2024 and it was Trump that only just got over the line. All you see and hear is how gracious Biden is being and how ungracious Trump was in 2020. The only reason the Dems are being so "gracious" about the transfer of power is they have no choice. They were absolutely decimated and it can't be disputed.

Well ABC, NBC and CBS are all legacy media. Surprised you don't know this. Even tax payer funded networks globally are on the progressive woke left agenda. Why? Where's the balance. Try and post some balance on here and it's deleted as misinformation or not from a "reputable" source. Well the reputable sources have shown their face and it's definitely not reputable.

Let's not quibble. Quibble, like indeed, are two very good words.

Bait taken again. Just so gullible you woke lefties it's amazing. Please remember many of my previous posts when I've stated I used to be on the left. Not any more. The right now is more in line with my left views. Go figure.

Bait taken. He lands another leftie.

So the left wing biased CNN's viewing figures which have tanked will rise because Trumps in and they will continue with the radical left agenda. As for 2016 this is when CNN went full left bias which has led to where they are now. In trouble. Well I guess there's some logic in there somewhere.

I think you may have missed the nuance of the post. I might be wrong but I think it's more about the disturbing push toward global authority and a reduction in freedom of speech aka it's sarcasm. I reckon the bit about the pensioner facing jail is a bit of a give away in this respect.

It seems you have access to the tweet because you say it was "hate speech". Can you provide us with this so we can make our own minds up about it. Thanks.

Not off topic at all. The setting might be the UK but this leftist push against freedom of speech is global.

Haven't seen any of supporters of the radical progressive woke left yet on this thread yet. Come on wake up and support the legacy media that you all believe as reporting the truth.

Could it be that a % of viewers of the BS saw through the BS and moved over to Trump? The legacy media is a disgrace and to call these organisations the purveyors of information and any challenge to the narrative is deemed misinformation and censored accordingly is erroneous in it's very nature.

Have to disagree. What makes you think the room at the jail was locked. I would think all possible niceties were afforded to Thaksin before the "medical emergency" that necessitated a medical extract via helicopter to a very comfortable room in the police hospital.

I agree he is not influencing his daughter. There is a big difference between "influencing policy" and "directing policy".

MSNBC is in the same boat. What this election really showed was a complete bias from the legacy media. It's fine for bias to be shown in the editorials/opinions but there has traditionally been a firewall between this and the news desk which should be neutral and objective i.e. report the news. The Liz Cheney "firing squad" story is just one perfect example of this. A 20 second grab that took what Trump said completely out of context was taken and ran with. This of course was believed by the gullible as evidenced by some on this forum. Of course for many of us the legacy media has clearly shown itself for what it is over the past four years. Unfortunately it's these media outlets that are deemed to be reliable media sources in this era of what is and isn't misinformation.

Oh come on. You cant truly believe this. "I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump to be Vice President but I think she's not qualified to be President." Nothing at all to do with suffering from dysphemia. This is pure cognitive confusion.

Have to agree. It's a ridiculous system. The Senate will now push through as much as they can. The people voted them out but have to wait two months for them to leave. Trump is pretty much ready go just a week after the election was called.

Just his last 4 yrs. Ukraine/Russia war. Israel/Gaza. Funded Iran. Millions of illegal immigrants. Soaring crime. Soaring prices. Men in women's sports. Censorship of free speech. Huge debt. High inflation. Low employment. House prices and rents through the roof. Botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. Chose Harris as VP although that probably wasn't his decision. DEI. ............

You did see the debate didn't you. Fairly sure arthritis and plantar fasciitis wasn't playing much of a role then. By much of a role I mean NONE. Bit like this little collage. To say any of this is because of arthritis or plantar fasciitis is grasping at non-existent straws.

Do you mean the man that didn't take one day off in the election and that won the electoral college, the popular vote, the Senate and the House? Not bad for someone with "a screw loose." As for Biden it's the Democrats that has kept him there and not invoke the 25th Amendment. BTW saying someone is in cognitive decline is not pulling the piss. It's an observation. An observation known globally in this case.
