That's how we felt when the Bernie people stayed home last time.
Oh, I'm a Democrat, btw.
The Bernie people lol
And I'm Australian haha
Lmfao
Watchin the Sky News, mate?
Tbh American politics is so dirty, all the best ideas are too politically charged for otherwise decent candidates to support. Health care safety net for example.
Lol Sky News sucks
I agree with both statements lol
A couple of the hosts are good. Overall they're just so dodgy.
*sketchy. (Murican For dodgy)
ABC is clearly partisan (leans left) but overall gets the info you need once you sift through the bias (if you're able to). I studied journalism so I get really irritated with a lot of it.
Haha yes Aussie dialect
Journalism is unmarketable. It's devolved into fiefdoms.
You're angular or you perish as a journalist nowadays.
But left or right leaning, I get anniyed at the simple failure to show both sides. Disrn is run by (hilarious) right leaning people but their short, uncommentaried news articles are refreshing to read. You finish the page and suddenly realise you've been left to make up your own mind about the information.
True story
I'm sure there are pockets of unbiased journalism somewhere but those would only be regarded as some kind of trap to smuggle in nefarious subtext. That's how bad it is.
Yep. Be interested to see where Greenwald goes now.
I've joined so many alternative platforms lately. Looks like Substack will be next
I don't know who Greenwald is.
Wot
Lol really
How can you be Democrat and not know who Glenn Greenwald is 😂😅
I feel like we're polluting the election chat. Maybe General Chat would be appropriate.
Edward Snowden's media contact
Yeah truth
Either side should be alarmed that a clerical error like this could even happen.
Is it what was going into the legal count or what was being reported to the media?
Media more than likely. I'm still going through the article.
So my assumption is probably wrong.
People do seem to be conflating the two as official claims. I imagine the election system is more sophisticated than that.
I would really hope so.
Gotta love how an actual error that did cause an irregularity prompts 'unfounded' claims lol
More like 'founded but remedied'.
So the clerical error did come from the county. But it was initial reporting and is deemed unofficial by the county since it was election night numbers, per the county, according to the article I posted
