Most other countries believed them including mine. Your press ridiculed us. Why? Because war requires big taxpayer money spent on weapons. Ike's point still stands. You have a very sick society and you more than deserve Trump. Just remember when you have 2 big business political parties it's heads they win and tails you lose. Everytime! Corporate media will even make you think you have scratch in the game. Sorry, blaming the press for that is a few steps too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No news program can cover everything that everyone wants to watch. However the fact that you can still find the niche "news" that appeals to you is evidence that, for now, there is still a real free press. Fake news is the intentional publication of false information. Trump reporting that millions of people illegally voted for Hillary Clinton is fake news. Nobody has given examples of CNN, Washington Post, BBC, etc reporting fake news. I don't know what the tv news is like in your country, but in mine they are worse than useless when it comes to international news, and spend more time on gossipy type rubbish than hard news. They also tell half truths and indulge in opinion far too much. I rarely bother watching as they are so useless for finding out anything. The only stuff that is reported truthfully is disasters, as it's very hard to make propaganda out of an earthquake, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only stuff that is reported truthfully is disasters, as it's very hard to make propaganda out of an earthquake, etc. TV news dedicates a lot of air time to infotainment due to competitive pressures. In the US C-SPAN provides non-stop coverage of Congress, real news, and is watched by very few people. Every news summary programs try to cover stories of interest to everyone, and by spreading themselves too thin become useless at anything other than providing notice of important recent developments (they call it "breaking news", but stretch the meaning of that too far). However you don't have to limit yourself to TV news. There are publications that have spent decades building a reputation for in-depth, fact based analysis of world events and work hard to maintain their reputation for objective analysis. However they don't feed you feel-good stories in easy to absorb sound-bites, which many people (Trump) prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However some people prefer the deluge of facts and analysis that a robust free press provides. Regarding the lack of neutrality in the press, do you think facts are biased? Do you think Trump's tweets are well informed and unbiased? BTW, the press should be a rational skeptic of all that a national leader promotes. It's what keeps a free society free. That's why dictators and would-be dictators hate a free press. AMEN. Isn't it remarkable that something so basic like this suggests a need to be explained? Man o' man.

selftaopath Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 On 2/28/2017 at 5:11 AM, Credo said: The press was at a distinct disadvantage in reporting on the WMD. The press does have to verify it's sources as much as possible and it does. It's very difficult to get sources in a country like Iraq under Saddam. Trump is just plain afraid to show up. The Press Association Dinner is a way of bringing closer relations between the WH and the Press; it's not unlike an office party. It's pretty clear that Trump does not wish to have a reasonable relationship with the press. I suspect this is for good reasons. He doesn't expect to be a reasonable President. He only wants to DICTATE. That is one reason he admires other dictators. He's begun Bannon's mission to destroy U.S. democracy but gain power and more wealth. That's the plan.
