But thank you for implicitly acknowledging the failures of CNN/MSNBC/ others who pretend to be credible, independent and truthful. If we can find common ground there, perhaps others can, and demand those entities return to what they once were, which was credible journalistic entities who stood up to power rather than serving it. I've said myriad times that I don't care for CNN or MSNBC, and alt-righties who devour OAN and Newsmax think outlets such as Reuters and Associated Press are liberal media. When I was in the media, we didn't even talk about our personal opinions outside of the editorial board. It's tragic what the media has become in this country, with the Associated Press a shell of itself. The media has played a key role in whipping up the divisiveness we see today. I will say that CNN and MSNBC have been far harder on Biden and Harris than OAN, FOX and Newsmax were on Trump. And they don't engage in the same kind of vicious vitriol in attacking the right as the far-right sources do on Democrats and Liberals. I thought it was great today to see the Senate vote down Biden's ridiculous vaccine mandate for large businesses. Several Democrats crossed the aisle to vote on this Republican bill.

Hardcore troubadour 12,652 Posted December 9, 2021 A school district in the area is considering going to virtual learning for three weeks due to the Covid uptick and lack of bus drivers.

This is not true. Fox has been way overboard in how they handle Biden and Harris, its really just over the top. For the most part CNN/MSNBC/CBS/ABC et al were rather gentle and still coddle the admin largely. They finally stepped up and bristled in August with the Afghanistan debacle and have been more or less forced into honestly reporting things like inflation and the economy. No, CNN and MSNBC are not as heard on Biden as they reasonably should be. Fox just does it because they can.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masshole 642 Posted December 9, 2021 3 hours ago, Sean Mooney said: But bringing this up- like a$$hole did- after a post where I specifically mentioned a lot of this was predicted summer of 2020 and shortly into the pandemic (and all prior to 3 days ago) is just trying to make what you believe fit. Yah, I'm the one with blinders on. At this point shredding your weak, poorly thought out points is like clubbing a baby seal. There's no sport in it. But I'll have another go at it for your benefit. Everyone on the planet knew that there would be a huge economic recovery when the CV19 lockdowns subsided. You didn't need to be Milton Friedman to figure that out. And that would happen no matter who was president. It could have been Trump, Biden, Obama, Nixon, or the "rent is too damn high" guy who was president and that recovery would happen. You just made that point yourself. But (and here's the important point) - that recovery would happen as long as whomever was in charge didn't do anything to get in its way and fuk it up. Your boy Biden did exactly that. He pushed a massive extension and enhancement to the CV19 payroll benefits that allowed people to stay out of work, he's got the printing presses humming at light speed printing money, he's completely screwed up the commodities markets (like oil), and has done dozens of other things to screw up the recovery. If he had just stayed in campaign mode (i.e. stayed in his basement and said very little) he would have been OK. But he let the fanatics that he's surrounded with talk him in to all of the "FDR-like" programs he's pushing and he screwed up a sure thing. You have to be a special kind of idiot to screw up a sure thing. And you have to be an even more special kind of idiot not to see that. So you go ahead and take your victory lap over the economic recovery that should have happened at least a year ago but now supposedly is gonna happen "soon". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masshole 642 Posted December 9, 2021 3 hours ago, Sean Mooney said: Also, it should be noted. CNN and MSNBC may be some varying degrees of left but FOX News is to the right and by far the most watched news network. I mean FOX News in 2020 did 3.6 million viewers a day. MSNBC did 2.1 and CNN did 1.7....It's a little hard to take the idea then that the left is controlling all media when the most watched network is FOX by an almost 2:1 margin. Goddam man, are you trolling or just stupid? I hope you are trolling. Fox and those others are combined maybe 4M viewers. MSNBC, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS are in the tens of millions of viewers. All of those are left-leaning if not hard left. The left also has most print media (with WSJ & NYP being the outliers). All of the late night talk shows are hard left. Hollywood is all hard left The billionaire class is mostly lefties too. Academia (as you so amply prove) is hard-left. Social media is hard-left, or did you miss the $460M that Zuck pumped to the dems in the last election. Not to mention Soros, Omidyer, Gates, etc. Bezos ex-wife pumped about $200M of his $ to dems. But you do your strawmen, it's one thing you are good at. No one has said "all media" is controlled by the left. It's the majority of the media and it outweighs right leaning outlets by about 10-1.

Just stated as fact, when it's just opinion (and very wrong). Trump wouldn't have done most of the things that have delayed the recovery. 2nd bolded point: Keystone is a factor but just one of many. Inflationary spending is one, or do you not realize that if your dollar is worth less, you are going to get less gas per dollar? Biden's biggest impact on gas prices is his admin's overall turn to the left on oil exploration and production policy. By embracing the "Green new deal", that we are going to have to "urgently" address climate change, not allowing drilling operations on federal lands, yes- shutting down Keystone and fracking, and overall signaling that his admin was going to be very anti-fossil fuels*. The complete fiasco of the Russian trolls cyber-hacking the gas pipeline companies in the southeast and this admin pathetic reaction to that didn't help either. Oil is traded in commodity futures and with all of these actions of this admin it sent a clear signal to the oil producers and traders and that drives up the futures prices. That then drives up the price of fuel. Would you like me to link some info on oil commodities futures trading, or do you want to just go back to the teacher's lounge and hide? God I hope you aren't an economics professor. * = You can have a separate debate about whether the reduction in fossil fuel usage is an urgent societal & climate need. This is a question about how this admin impacted fuel prices, so I am leaving that one to the side for now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masshole 642 Posted December 10, 2021 23 hours ago, Pimpadeaux said: If you're going to mistakenly lump in ABC, NBC and CBS - which are far closer to the middle than CNN, MSNBC and Fox, then you have to lump in OAN, Newsmax, etc., but it's dumb to lump ABC, NBC and CBS. I think Mooney's stupid is infecting you. I DID lump OAN and Newsmax in with Fox, or is reading something you struggle with? You contradicted yourself in a single sentence post, which is hard to do - kudos. ABC, NBC, & CBS aren't as far left as CNN & MSNBC but they are NOT "middle", you even said that yourself. They lean pretty hard to the left, particularly their news and opinion operations, and have huge audiences. What is the equivalent on the right? Don't say Fox, because we already did. The COMBINED audiences of MSNBC & CNN are close to or more than Fox and OAN/NM. What's the "right leaning" networks beyond those? Don't bother - there are none.

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted December 10, 2021 Rusty democrats are entering uncharted waters of disapproval. CNBC's generic ballot poll shows a 10% GOP advantage. In the recorded history of generic ballot polling done by NBC and CNBC, the GOP has never had a 10-point lead. Until now. https://www.newsmax.com/politics/cnbc-gop-democrats-congress/2021/12/10/id/1048209/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
