No, Fox is a propaganda machine like the communist USSR (Soviet Union) had/has
with Tass and Pravda.

The equivalent print media in the USA are the Wall Street Journal, NY Post and Washington Times, among others.
Difference is one is started as merely a news organization and the other is started for the purpose
of disseminating propaganda favoring a specific political view. Problem is/was when, in a fury
of anger and revenge after the Watergate hearings and Nixon's resignation, the republicans
began calling the media "liberal". Thus they succeeded in making it appear as though any medium
that did not support their views and policies was "liberal" and therefore biased against the cause
of truth in reporting. Reed Irvine founded an organization called AIM (Accuracy In Media)
back in 1969. It came into more prominence after Watergate, and the Reagan cartel used AIM
religiously to call any news that wasn't to their liking as being created by the "liberal media".
That has now evolved into Trump's "fake news", "enemy of the state" and "enemy of the people"
to describe any media that don't support their warped side of the story. Sounds like something Mao or Stalin would say.

This was taken up ‘as a matter of policy’ in the 50s: straw-man “liberals” as soft on communism, race-traitors (for accepting the emancipated as citizens under the 14th amendment), and tax-hungry (“tax money to integrate SCHOOLS??? Not **MY** TAX MONEY!!! That’s THEFT!!!” (Sound familiar?))

they keep reinforcing their artificial stereotype even as they fail hard in public? Under other conditions/circumstances, it might be funny

Lynching is what he's really talking about, just like back in the good old days, it's actually a dog whistle. Shitheads like this keep getting elected though and some can clearly do no wrong, just like Trump. Look at it this way, he was the best and brightest his district had to offer.

Rep. Paul Sherrell (R-Sparta) wants to bring “HANGING BY A TREE” back to Tennessee — as an amendment to
@DennisHPowers firing squad bill.

Thing is, these guys ain't afraid of anything. Not fearful of a black person raping their daughter.
That's what a lynch tree is for, hanging the black who they accuse of rape. They don't live anywhere
near black communities, not that they'd be in any more danger if they did, but the perceived danger
of the black rapist isn't theirs to fear. They live in farms, condos, gated hoods, they have nothing to
fear, whether real or imagined. Yet, this genius wants to hang ppl by a tree, and we know what race
of people they mean to hang, albeit, lynch, by a tree. Whew, wotta country we have here. Whew. I
suppose that because we live in such a racially diverse country that when such racism and bigotry
surfaces, it stands out because of the higher public awareness in USA than in most other more
racially homogeneous, less diverse countries, where race isn't much of an issue at all. Everybody in
most other countries are mostly the same race. They don't have racism as an issue. So it's not topical.
How do you know you're a racist or not if everybody in your world are the same race as you?

Murdoch confession bombshell rocks GOP as leaders duck billion dollar legal scandal

48,601 views Mar 1, 2023 #msnbc #foxnews #rupertmurdoch
The legal earthquake hitting Fox News is making global headlines after Rupert Murdoch admitted under oath some anchors knew Trump was lying about a stolen election and peddled the lies anyway. Despite the avalanche of news, Speaker McCarthy says he "didn't see all that" and other top senators claim they're "not following any of it." Political strategist Chai Komanduri joins MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent on "The Beat."

Until a slew of co-conspirators are seen dressed in orange serving lengthy sentences, including Trump, we'll continue to see the kind of lawless and reckless acts of impunity against our democracy and government. It doesn't have to be Rikers, it just has to be prison with the same kind of privileges prisoners in Rikers have.

I'm not optimistic but haven't lost hope that it will happen.

I just posted an Ari Melber video (In the AG Garland thread) with a recent DOJ official and assistant to Garland. I was struck by his mood and demeanor; he is definitely a man who knows something that delights him but can't talk about it! :lol: He also appears to have a lot of confidence in Garland, the wheels of justice turn slowly at the best of times, but with this bunch it takes extra grinding to crush them. If Garland does believe, as I do, that the rule of law if a foundation of liberal democracy, then those involved in J6 should be concerned. Politics is involved and if these congressional and state house clowns are gonna be on trial it will be during the 2024 election season or just before, or that is how it will work out, they will be accountable to their voters as well as juries perhaps. Jack is tied up in a half a dozen secret privilege motions by the guilty including Pence, so it explains some of his delay over the documents. Georgia looks first up with a TV trial and Mark is not cooperating, yet.

My mother once said something like there were problems between Black and White people before Black people began protesting.

The frightening corollary of that is that many white people think blacks don’t really have something to be protesting about.

I imagine there is a correlation with people who oppose the idea of critical race theory as, well, upsetting. Disrespectful of the natural order of things (which I hear in my head with a drawl).
