America's trusted correspondents are massacre survivors


The students and teachers of Florida's Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School survived a massacre.

(One teen was corrupted by his father, Glenn Haab. Fed the Right Wing Extremist media a bullshit story. Lied by omission, and nurtured conspiracy theories.)According to CNN, the elder Haab declined the invitation after the network rejected the full speech. Glenn Haab later reportedly admitted to inadvertently “omitting some words from the email.”

gsgs comment- Which is more bullshit from Glenn Haab. If he had included those words, his bullshit story would have died before it was born.

Chris Matthews

I must say that I disagree with Chris Matthews from MSNBC's "Hardball," on one point. He praises Walter Cronkite. Walter Cronkite caved in, and folded because of pressure from the network, the White House, and the military. They used Walter Cronkite because he did seem honest, credible and he inspired trust. Walter Cronkite betrayed that trust. He lied.

The survivors of Florida's Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School have no need to lie.

It's not "the media" the NRA is worried about. It's these students and teachers. They are the country's trusted correspondents.


The survivors of Parkland don't criticize lawmakers for disagreeing with them. They nail them for speaking so dishonestly.

Here in the UK if we ever had a series of mass stabbings in schools, nobody in their right mind would propose giving teachers longswords and training them in historical European martial arts to fend off a knife-wielding menace. But across the pond...

I thought R was the law-and-order party but they're passing legislation to create armed vigilante civilians to do the police's job instead of just making it harder for criminals to get guns?

As if, supplying our nation with believable journalism, was not enough of a burden for teens that survived a massacre.

They are now filling America's demand for moral leadership


Trolls that love the NRA, Trump trolls, Russian discord troll bots, and Extremist Right Wing trolls are furiously pounding keyboards in an effort to gain the teen's attention.

Republican politicians are attacking the teens, and those adults are losing their political offices and their jobs.

(I suppose taking NRA money has some strings attached.)

Religious TV stations, NRA TV, and FOX TV, and

Sinclair also requires stations to run segments from Boris Epshteyn, a Russian-born former Trump adviser who now serves as Sinclair's chief political analyst. Epshteyn recently produced stories with titles like, "Pres. Trump deserves cabinet and staff who support his agenda, yield successes" and "Cable news channels are giving way too much coverage to Stormy Daniels."
.

The FCC has emphasized Sinclair-friendly deregulation during the Trump presidency, with Chairman Ajit Pai helping to ease the rules on owning multiple TV and radio stations in the same market.

Sinclair was fined $13.3 million by the FCC in December for running over 1,700 commercials designed to look like news broadcasts without properly identifying them as paid content on its stations over a six-month period.

That fine was perceived as a "slap on the wrist," by Democratic FCC Commissioner Mignon Clyburn, who accused Pai and the two other Republican members of the commission of cutting Pro-Trump Sinclair a break by not issuing the maximum allowable fine of $82 million, three percent of Sinclair's annual sales.

Sinclair owner, Frederick G. Smith, vice president and director of Sinclair Broadcasting, sent a contribution to Montana's Republican representative Greg Gianforte on the day after Gianforte was charged with assault for putting a "body slam" on a reporter for The Guardian (UK)

Russia born, former White House Communications official Boris Epshteyn, is writing what the local television reporters are forced to recite.

17 American television stations, forced to carry News from The Other Side of Alice in Wonderland's mirror.

FOX TV info-tainment is due for some competition.
