Wow 43 pages, seems like a good idea to read what people wrote

10/10/2023 10:29:43 PM

I flipped onto CNN a few times last night to see how/what they were reporting, and was very dissapointed. It was overtly biased (not the way most conservatives would think), and very low on any actual information or "journalism". They had multiple guests, but I only saw family members of missing Israelis and Israeli military/political spokesmen.

10/11/2023 9:46:36 AM

I had no complaints with what I saw of Chris Hayes last night.

10/11/2023 3:27:37 PM

Was he talking at all about the tremendous suffering of the 100s of 1000s of civilian Palestinians? or was he just condemning Hamas and cheerleading for Israel? Because that's all I saw (again, I was just flipping to it occasionally.

10/11/2023 3:40:38 PM

The mainstream media, is well, mainstream for a reason

10/11/2023 4:48:17 PM

^^ He seemed to focus on the civilians on both sides of the conflict who are caught in the middle.

10/11/2023 5:43:04 PM

hot take gone wrong: I was flipping through the channels and both times I landed on CNN they were talking to some Palestinian condemning Hamas.

I would definitely expect to see this story on The New York Times homepage, but it's not.

Why are you personally insulted by that statement

I'm a liberal and so are most of my friends lmao


like it just is what it is

2/21/2024 8:43:38 PM

Nyt got some journalism award for their "unparalleled" coverage of the Gaza massacre. Wild in general but also quite insulting considering the number of journalists literally dying to provide on the ground coverage.

Dem-aligned media are still Dem-aligned. they're just moving on from Biden. and they're doing their role now to help protect the rest of the Dems from Biden's failures. just would have been nice if they hadn't carried Dem's filthy water over the last year and we could have had a proper primary instead of this chaos

"They deserve it. And it's not just that they lie about everything. It's like they lie about everything and then they have the nerve to morally judge us. Like if you just watch even just the last few weeks of the Trump election, they're not in the business of reporting the news. They're totally just in the business of making you feel like you're a bad person. If you don't fall in line with the regime, America has this giant war machine, right? Like we're just always at war. We're the most war hungry country in the world. Even if we're taking a little bit of a break from a war, we'll fight two more proxy wars while we do that. America looks back at the 90s, Bill Clinton, as the time of peace and prosperity. We call it peace because we only fought a war in like Serbia and had a blockade around Iraq and were like bombing the crap out of Iraq with a few other military interventions in there too. The UN estimated that Bill Clinton's sanction and bombing regime of Iraq, okay, everyone just thinks of George H.W. Bush's war and W's war, but Bill Clinton was bombing Iraq his whole time. He had a full blockade around the country. The UN estimated that 500,000 children died of starvation or malnutrition due to the blockade. Now I've heard people argue, by the way, that that number is exaggerated. Maybe it wasn't 500,000, maybe it was only 100,000. Let's say it's an iron town. So that's the time that we consider peace when we were just starving 100,000 children to death in Iraq and you, everybody in the corporate media, are in the business of every single one of those wars. You've sold them. Everyone, my entire life, the media has sold those wars and you're gonna morally look down on me? You're gonna judge me? Motherfucker, you're in the business of baby murder. Get the fuck out of here. You're looking down judging an American because I, maybe I'm gonna vote for Donald Trump or maybe I dare to question the results of the last election? Fuck you, dude. I just..."

I guess I was taking issue with the "unbelieveable they published it" nonsense

7/4/2025 10:35:07 AM

It is unbelievable, it's just a hit piece

Well i mean, I guess it's believable but it shouldn't be, not sure which you meant.

7/4/2025 11:11:31 AM

How is that a hit piece?

7/4/2025 2:11:02 PM

Bc it's barely even news and is only written to paint him as making unethical choices to get into college?

I don't think it is a hit piece and don't think he has anything to worry about with it. It is basically what elizabeth warren did right?

7/4/2025 3:07:49 PM

You mean Pocahontas?

7/4/2025 4:59:00 PM

I'm unclear what he was supposed to put, given the available choices.

I don't see the problem in either his entries or the NYT piece.

We have more important areas to focus than the New York Times arguably not being progressive enough for TGL3 100% of the time.

7/4/2025 5:17:57 PM

^100%

Frankly, it seems to me more strange if they didn't report it. It would look like they are trying to sweep it under the rug or protect him

7/4/2025 5:24:02 PM

That's literally what this thread is about? The liberal media not being liberal?

7/4/2025 7:04:37 PM

That's true.

I'm talking about the overreaction to a non-story story.

It's neither unbelievable nor absurd.

7/4/2025 7:17:52 PM

if it’s a non-story, why was it published by the biggest newspaper in the country?

this is why it’s absurd

7/4/2025 7:24:07 PM

He's not African-American, he did tick the wrong box

but I don't think anyone really cares. when they're already calling him a commie terrorist, they basically lose any effectiveness with more ordinary allegations
but in this case, no one would've cared anyway tbh

7/4/2025 9:34:22 PM

^^Yeah, I'd rather find out from some rando on Twitter or Bluesky so I know it's credible.

What again is your issue with what published?

^He was born in Uganda. What continent is that?

7/4/2025 9:35:13 PM

^It was an optional question about race. If I was born in China, I wouldn't say I was of the Chinese race, would I? The whole race thing is pretty subjective, a social science if you will, but in this context it is common sense



How ignorant people seem to be regarding what this means actually might be an indicator of why we have so many problems discussing anything related to race or affirmative action. Of course it doesn't help that you have flippant racists on the other side though lol

[Edited on July 4, 2025 at 10:05 PM. Reason : H]

7/4/2025 9:43:38 PM

His background is really interesting though, well, that of his father's. Born in India, parents moved around, became Ugandan, then got a scholarship set up for Ugandans to the US, and then did a lot of protesting and was really relentless it seems.

Isn't the source for the article a Twitter/bluesky rando (white nationalist)?
