Neonazis rally at the Lincoln Memorial. Why not?
The son of Trump's favorite Flynn was scheduled to speak, but I have not been able to find a report that says whether he did or didn't.
A lot of people -- me, included -- have wondered what the attraction was that Flynn has for Whiny Baby Donald.
All in all, another brick in the wall.
You are looking in the wrong direction.
ReplyDeleteWell, when a pro-Palestinian dyke is discovered whispering in the ear of the president of the United States, I'll become alarmed.
ReplyDeleteHarry, the first two words of your post linked to an incredibly obscure group that has virtually no support anywhere.
ReplyDeleteMy link went to a publicly sponsored parade full of progressives who were all too happy to exclude Jews.
Antifa riots, no-platforming, assaults on speakers, heckler's veto, blatant anti-Judaism, assassination fantasies, complete subversion of journalistic ethics.
All of that is coming from the left.
And from Trump? Moronic tweets.
You leftists are completely unhinged.
Not as obscure as we'd like and I would not have said any attention to them if they were not closely linked -- via at least two strong links -- to the Oval Office.
ReplyDeleteNot as obscure as we'd like and I would not have said any attention to them if they were not closely linked -- via at least two strong links -- to the Oval Office.
ReplyDeleteThey aren't linked at all, as proven by your lack of links.
But far more astonishing is your complete ignoring of fascism where it has repeatedly actually reared its ugly head -- thereby proving progressivism is just a different spelling -- whilst shrieking like a teen girl faced with a spider about nothing.
Antifa riots, no-platforming, assaults on speakers, heckler's veto, blatant anti-Judaism, assassination fantasies, complete subversion of journalistic ethics have actually happened, in case you aren't keeping up with the news.
All the items on your list apply equally well, or better, to the rightwing.
ReplyDeleteNo, Harry, they don't.
ReplyDeleteThe right hasn't excluded Jews, or started riots, no-platformed speakers, or started violent riots, or beat people with bicycle locks, or engaged in grotesque journalistic malfeasance.
All you are left with is the snotty response of a petulant fourth grader.
It has done all those things, plus slashed people's throats. but your last item is so laughable that I suppose that even you, upon reflection, will withdraw it.
ReplyDeleteBollocks, Harry. I will happily provide links for every one of my assertions: they are facts, they actually happened.
ReplyDelete... but your last item is so laughable that I suppose that even you, upon reflection, will withdraw it.
By all means, Harry, provide me with specific examples of mainstream "rightwing" news outlets that have covered themselves in merde like CNN, the NYT, WaPo, LAT, CBS, NBC, et al.
I have to say that your timing is, again, remarkably bad
ReplyDeleteI have to say, Harry, your response is a fact vacuum. As always.
ReplyDeleteI'll let Washington Post commenter FauxReal answer you:
ReplyDeleteIf you didn't watch John Oliver last night, I highly recommend you watch the video sometime. Oliver took on Sinclair Media. We think of Fox as the Republican propaganda network. Sinclair is even more dangerous because they own local TV stations around the country and push out Conservative propaganda. It's quite an eye opener.
Sinclair is in the midst of making their empire even bigger with a $3.9 billion merger with Tribune Media that would significantly consolidate local television networks.
You should also be aware of this from December:
Kushner: We struck deal with Sinclair for straighter coverage
"Kushner said the agreement with Sinclair, which owns television stations across the country in many swing states and often packages news for their affiliates to run, gave them more access to Trump and the campaign, according to six people who heard his remarks.
In exchange, Sinclair would broadcast their Trump interviews across the country without commentary, Kushner said."

The Hill has the video of John Oliver explaining Sinclair and their methods. Please watch it.

Harry:
ReplyDeleteI live in Germany, I can't watch John Oliver.
Regardless of anything else about Sinclair, what could be straighter coverage than broadcasting interviews without commentary?
As opposed to what, say, John Oliver does, which is to fluff progs preconceptions non-stop.
That wouldn't be coverage; that would be a free ad.
ReplyDeleteNo, Harry, that is coverage: presenting it as it was, without layering characterizations on top.
ReplyDeleteYou do that all the time, and just as frequently screw it up.
If you have an Internet connection, you can watch Oliver.
ReplyDeleteHere's a link.

Your definition of 'coverage' is what Pravda does. Reporting differs.
Harry, I would have to be dead to care less about John Oliver, late night comedian, than I do already.
ReplyDeleteThe straightest possible coverage is that without overlaid commentary.
If memory serves, CSPAN does quite a bit of that already.
Harry, what you do, and what the NYT, WaPo, CNN, etc do far too often, is Pravda ... I mean coverage.
It sure as hell isn't reporting.
Nice company you're keeping.

Speaking of company.
Except at the Oval Office.
ReplyDeleteOnce again with the fact-free smears, Harry. What is it with you progressives?
ReplyDeleteWell, here's a fact, although I am sure all my readers have already taken note of it:
ReplyDeleteYou use antifascist as a smear word
Harry, that isn't possible. Antifas relentlessly smear themselves, while demonstrating how fascistic progressives like you are.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I'm sure you can provide a direct quote where I've used "antifa" as a smear word.
Yes, I can
ReplyDeleteThen do it.
ReplyDelete... waiting ...
ReplyDeleteOh. Right. Got it. You lied again.
