2018-05-22 19:03:21 UTC  

I took my gun and vanished

2018-05-22 20:14:29 UTC

2018-05-22 20:16:48 UTC

2018-05-22 20:28:58 UTC

2018-05-22 20:29:03 UTC

2018-05-22 20:29:15 UTC

2018-05-22 20:29:18 UTC  

its an active situation

2018-05-22 20:30:17 UTC  

There still focusing on the white kid that shot up that school. YET they moved right past the crazy muslim that shot up youtube

2018-05-22 20:30:58 UTC  

didnt fit the narrative of evil white male enough

2018-05-22 20:31:06 UTC  

fuck cnn

2018-05-22 20:31:30 UTC  

are they even still on that recent one? he had a shotgun and a revolver. doesn't really help their narrative. This is some dude who police where investigating and when they went to raid his house, started opening up

2018-05-22 22:31:45 UTC  

Nasim was pretty clearly totally batshit though

2018-05-22 22:31:55 UTC  

Although the memes that rolled out were pretty cool

2018-05-22 22:32:14 UTC  

The sturmwhatever wave folks did nasimwave

2018-05-22 23:07:10 UTC  

And to be fair to the press the only person to die was her. Yes it was YT but the body count wasn't big enough.

2018-05-22 23:19:02 UTC  

I love my state

2018-05-22 23:19:20 UTC  

Only.. in Texas

2018-05-22 23:39:56 UTC  

yknow you gotta hand it to these hollywood marketers.. theyve managed to market shame and guilt... - whats that? youre not going to see black panther? well now.. youre not a racist are you... off you go to the cinema

2018-05-22 23:50:41 UTC  

I dont really understand the point of trying to do legit journalism with insane people like Vic Berger lying and cheating

2018-05-22 23:50:49 UTC  

these people do not want honesty

2018-05-22 23:50:52 UTC  

they do not want truth

2018-05-22 23:51:16 UTC  

You have the extremes of the far left being actually insane and the far right being entirely detestable

2018-05-22 23:51:49 UTC  

surely it doesnt really matter what they want, its want the general masses want, if they want the truth ...

2018-05-22 23:57:05 UTC  

thinking about that compelled speech law in Canada, if that precedent has now been set... if a white supremacist somehow got into power, they could compel people to use the n-word whenever referring to a black person, punishable by fine if they don't :/

2018-05-22 23:57:28 UTC  

and people have already said they think its a good law and fine to do... blows my miind

2018-05-22 23:59:09 UTC  

(obviously if a white supremacist got into power, this would probably be the least of most peoples worries)

2018-05-22 23:59:18 UTC  

😛

@Timcast there is still value in the work, even if the term journalism may no longer hold the same meaning, the actual work is still needed. I have a running theory that as the news media struggles to find a place in the internet age in which they are no longer the gate keepers of "the facts", as you pointed out, their standards have slipped (or their lack of standards at times are being exposed). This is leading to a greater number of people starting to distrust it, while the remaining people split along the divide. However, as the left keeps making fools of itself, and the right keeps being the right, people are gonna start looking more and more for a reputable news source.

2018-05-23 01:03:50 UTC  

There is still trust in the media, the journalists now are exploiting the trust the media spent decades earning from the populace. Just happens that we all now realise that journalism has always been tainted with bias and misinfo.

2018-05-23 01:05:01 UTC  

Also... A good instance of how freedom of the press can be akward to handle. You got multiple sites with their own "side" of the fight, of course you will only report stuff to keep your readers happy.

2018-05-23 01:06:00 UTC  

the idea that many people still believe at least one side of the major media is telling them the honest truth is incredibly depressing

2018-05-23 01:07:28 UTC  

Finding an unbiased news outlet today is like trying to find a needle in a haystack

2018-05-23 01:07:44 UTC  

Especially from the Legacy media

2018-05-23 01:07:51 UTC  

the problem isint people who want to lie and change the throughts of the world to their own narritive. the problem is people who want the honest truth when all they know is dominated by 2nd hand and 3rd hand sources
