was this a surprise to …well, anyone?
Apparently, Some want to say it was.
[Teh iW∅n on when he learned that the Gobt under his administration is working hard to penalize citizens on the basis of their desire to teach others about the founding principles of our nation instead of applying the Law equally to all]
“I first learned about it from the same news reports that I think most people learned about this. I think it was on Friday.”
rly. So, apparently, there is no actual informational benefit to being the Leader of The Free World?
However, Carney said Tuesday that first a report had to be compiled by the IRS’s inspector general and then when it was completed, it was passed on to the administration.
“A notification is appropriate and routine and that is what happened and that happened several weeks ago,” Carney said.
And nobody told Himself?!? Raaaacists!!!
Someone was told that Civil Order and The Rule of Law was being undermined by the biggest, most intrusive and powerful Agency in the Gobt — a story that could bring his Administration down around his jug-ears — and Nobody bothered to mention it to him?
Is he just a meat-puppet Someone keeps in a golf-closet and drags out for foto-ops? WTH is going on in The People’s House?!?
WTH is going on elsewhere?
[Scott Pelley][managing director and anchor of CBS Evening News][yeah - I didn't know either]
“These have been a bad few months for journalism. We’re getting the big stories wrong, over and over again.
“Months”??!?? pfff.
but W H Y ?, Scott?
…Never before in human history has more information been available to more people. But at the same time, never before in human history has more bad information been available to more people.
…So we were attacked by terrorists on that day and amateur journalists became digital vigilantes.
…In a world where everyone is a publisher, no one is an editor. And that is the danger that we face today.
We have entered a time when a writer’s first idea is his best idea, when the first thing a reporter hears is the first thing that she reports. We live in a time now when we have seen major television networks take video off of YouTube and broadcast it to millions of Americans without verifying whether the video had been fabricated or not.
A time where an obscure EweToob video with a coupla hundred views was blamed by a corrupt administration for an act of war, terrorism and murder of a duly appointed Ambassador — a lie which was duly reported without question, without a drop of skepticism, without a second’s worth of verification by all MSM including CBS.
Yeah. We noticed.
So you’re telling me, Mister Big Time $4 million/year Network Nooze Reader, that CBS spends $∅.00 on Nooze Editors? Good to know…
Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit. That’s not journalism. That’s gossip. Journalism was invented as an antidote to gossip.
Sounds good. I suggest you look into that. [perhaps before you tell me again about that Jolie woman and her teats?] Might just turn out to be an Idea That Pays.
