We now arguably have the justification for shutting down Fox News, Breitbart, Newsmax, etc.

    Can you point to the PF rule that says honesty isn't allowed?

    Me thinks you just answered your own question on why FB took it down.

    sounds like the typical fake news defense which has become so popular when threatened with the truth, facts, and US History.

    I'm having a hard time figuring out what you did.

    If it's too much for FB and PF, then it's unwelcome behavior.

    There's no PF rule against truth.

    it's merely factual emphasis to remind them the (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) is SO raw cos they hate everything good that they deserve major (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) for the rest of their (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) life. I would have 0 reason to interact without them without advertising their overt (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) everywhere they can. if expressing absurd (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) then their (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) will be exposed. that's why they're so (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) over parler etc being taken from them, now they're even more (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) and we love hearing all about their (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) cos it means America is back to winning! who could be (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) about that?

    Sorry, you've only been here for 10 minutes.

    You did agree to the rules when you joined. If you hate the rules, you are free to go find a forum where you can call people names with careless abandon.

    There's not much more to say about the topic, really. Parler may be a good place for you.

    I'm fine with rules, I don't get (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) just cos I don't get my lollipop every time I want it. it'd be nice it the (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) crowd here were targeted similarly but that's how it does sometimes in this overly (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) world. how (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) do you think your (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't)-in-chief is now that he can't rage (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) to his equally (can't use the accurate word here cos free speech only matters except when it doesn't) flock of killers?

    That probably depends on one's political perspective. I don't watch any of the night political talk shows as I know each are trying to inflict their political viewpoints on you. All are biased as Hades toward whichever political ideology they hold.

    If you like Maddow, that's fine. I don't have a problem with that as all that means is you're in political tune with her. But that doesn't stop the distrust of the MSM to report the news, the actual news in a full, accurate, fair manner without political slants which all three cable news networks do. You still have 60% of all Americans who don't trust the MSM to accurately, fully and fairly to report the news.

    What it all boils down to, by these corporate owned media giants is money. News is a business these days, just like any other business. Each network expects to make money, a profit, if in order to do that, they have to slant the news to give their viewership what they want and in the manner they want it, they'll absolutely do it.

    not at all, I'm a true conservative. I search all media for info, even our Nation's internal enemies if only to keep tabs, I'm truly fair and balanced like most old school Lefties. I can compartmentalized my bias and be influence free, we simply will not be fooled by the same sharts we saw with traitor Nixon and all rightys after.
    I don't particularly care for Rach, she happens to be on the spot, honest, accurate, and doesn't waste much time on BS.
    tell me who / where / when the msm has lied and not soon corrected any misinfo. you'll be hard pressed to, but info me.
    the righty hate media fueled most of the distrust, now their crowd distrust the ones they trusted most, but were lied to lol

    We only tune into the talking head networks during election time, and about 100 days into a new administration. There are so many new faces since 2016/early 2017.

    We've found a couple on each network that are worthy of listening to. So, a few nights, we'll tune into at least one of them.

    It's interesting to see the spin that each has. These are our candidates on each network, in terms of actual factual reporting along with some snark.

    FOX: Martha MacCallum & Shannon Bream
    CNN: Erin Burnett
    MSNBC: Nicolle Wallace

    In terms of election night itself, we found FOX to be the best to watch, in general.

    Don't equate lying with reporting the news in a fair, accurate and in full manner. That is what 60% of Americans don't trust the MSM to do. They take sides in our political battles and report those battles in a manner advantageous to whichever side they're on.

    When one doesn't report the full story, one isn't getting the full story. When one isn't reporting accurately on a story, slanting it to fit their viewing audience, they're not reporting the story accurately and so on. Tune into CNN and MSNBC, you'll get your news more or less biased to the left's point of view of what that news means. The same from the right from Fox.

    I'll repeat, not reporting fully or accurately or fairly on any story or happening doesn't equate to lying, it equates to manipulation of the news to fit the viewership of the network, giving them the news in an manner they want to hear.

    You'd be surprised at the number of folks that think the talking heads on all those political talk shows are actually reporting actual news instead of giving it their own political spin. Election night, every so often I went to internet sites of Politico and to the AP to get the results. I never turned on the TV.

    they distrust it cos they don't want to hear the truth just like you insist here. you won't prove your words but you keep at it.
    msm does not lie, and the only overt slant are detractors standing on their heads to make it look that way.
    straight reporting always irritates those who can't stand hearing it, and we'll be screaming it soon.

    Okay, so one line says

    [The Congress shall have Power . . .] To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions"

    and then the next line says "[The Congress shall have Power . . .] To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia"

    What is your point exactly?

    Have it your way, but 60% of all Americans think different. I do think the reason those on the left trust the media much more than independents and Republicans is that the vast majority of the MSM are on the left's side. 73% of Democrats trust the msm to report the news fully, faithfully and accurately. Mainly because they tell them what they want to hear. Then you have only 10% of republicans trusting the msm. I like to discard both major parties, taking a good look at independents, the less to non-partisan, the non-affiliated. Those who don't have a horse in this game. Among independents 36% trust the msm, 64% do not. Independents think the msm is biased and slanted in their reporting.

    I don't have to keep at, you refuse to admit it as most partisans on one do. Why would they, they have the msm on their side.

    https://news.gallup.com/poll/321116/americans-remain-distrustful-mass-media.aspx

    It's rather simple, just take a look at those independents and how the non-partisans view the msm. Forget Republicans and Democrats, they have a horse in all of this. independents don't. Myself, I trust independents in this much more than either major party.

    we don't trust the media since the Fairness Doc died but we have little alternative and do our best to be on it
    we didn't just fall of the turnip truck with no reference or perspective, you sound like a typical political noob.
    you wish to go on with your stats lol we've lived it and paid full attention to all sides, nobody fools us.
    I'm not a Dem, I'm a Liberal, I don't trust anybody now.
