well put

2018-05-03 14:54:42 UTC  

i didnt hear much about this student march which apprently affected 40 states, students walking out of schools in protest

2018-05-03 14:54:53 UTC  

because when they attack someone, they see it as "fighting tyranny"
when they get a response, its the "tyranny oppressing them"

2018-05-03 14:55:29 UTC  

I didn't hear anything about a student march at all, cuz i'm not from the states

2018-05-03 14:55:32 UTC  

something about protecting the 2nd amendment (so Im not surprised it wasnt covered much)

2018-05-03 14:55:49 UTC  

all i hear about America over here is how Trump is a naisie

2018-05-03 15:00:22 UTC  

yeah the twitter and some media went into a bit of meltdown when they announced he was coming here in july

2018-05-03 15:01:23 UTC  

you expect the msm to give a 2nd amendment march airtime like they do gun control?

2018-05-03 15:01:47 UTC  

that would break the narrative that all young people support gun control!

2018-05-03 15:01:53 UTC  

I dont expect it.. but they should

2018-05-03 15:02:01 UTC  

they should, but they don't

2018-05-03 15:02:10 UTC  

you'd think it would sell more headlines

2018-05-03 15:02:23 UTC  

it would be a shocker to their audience

2018-05-03 15:02:26 UTC  

maybe even panic them

2018-05-03 15:02:37 UTC  

and their not target audience would be suprised too

2018-05-03 15:02:38 UTC  

and read

2018-05-03 15:02:52 UTC  

If they were smart, the MSM would report it, to spark the "left"s fear of people doing that, making them protest more, aka more news to cover in the long run

2018-05-03 15:03:58 UTC  

if the MSM was smart, they probably wouldn't be losing out to independent media

2018-05-03 15:04:19 UTC  

companies who become ridged do not last the test of time

2018-05-03 15:05:47 UTC  

Well i think its a market strategy,
the MSM took one polarized side, in order to get a guaranteed audience that just want to be told things they approve of

2018-05-03 15:06:02 UTC  

so they'll tune in every day, and MSM gets a guaranteed audience to appease their share-holders

2018-05-03 15:06:32 UTC  

but they bet on the wrong horse with the 2016 presidency, and now their grip on the reality they told for years is cracking between their fingers

2018-05-03 15:07:25 UTC  

and they don't want to come out and admit it, cuz then they'd lose their core audience base, and become uncertain, which leads to less ensurance for share-holders etc

meaning they're just slowly and surely going to bleed out

2018-05-03 15:09:04 UTC  

could just be biased journalists

2018-05-03 15:10:03 UTC  

if you start with 2 outlets.. one slightly left leaning.. then a left leaning journalist will go for that outlet - eventually it will get more and more biased naturally

2018-05-03 15:10:20 UTC  

Could be the audience.

2018-05-03 15:10:32 UTC  

Be left wing, left wingers come watch you

2018-05-03 15:10:47 UTC  

So you keep saying left wing, cause if you say anything right wing, they leave

2018-05-03 15:11:08 UTC  

So you hire left wingers to say left wing stuff.

2018-05-03 15:11:09 UTC  

same with audiance .. if one is slightly left leaning, a left leaning person will choose it.. but I think its down to the journalists that make the bias grow

2018-05-03 15:11:38 UTC  

Education really.

2018-05-03 15:11:44 UTC  

ANd I mean the public.

2018-05-03 15:12:06 UTC  

You cant expect anyone to voluntarily cut off any further profits they could have potentially earned.

2018-05-03 15:12:13 UTC  

it will be interesting to see how knife media or whateer its called grows

2018-05-03 15:13:04 UTC  

but tbh the more centrist something is, it will be called right wing and left wing

2018-05-03 15:13:24 UTC  

BBC is often called both

2018-05-03 15:13:58 UTC  

thats cuz BBC is government funded, so they are a mouthpiece of whatever political affiliation the government is

2018-05-03 15:14:09 UTC  

the left is always accusing it of right wing bias... and the right even insinuate that its red colouring favours the labour party

2018-05-03 15:14:54 UTC  

funny thing is they're both right this time

2018-05-03 15:14:57 UTC  

Skeptical buch innit?

2018-05-03 15:15:19 UTC  

since the current "conservative" government in britain, is run by a self proclaimed feminist
