It is NOT “balance” to add FASCIST PROPAGANDA to the news, MSNBC. It is complicity.

I am past tired of news media assuming good intentions from bad people.
I lost my temper the other when I heard someone on NPR use the term "culture war." It is not a culture war. It a group of bigots looking for a way to make bigotry socially acceptable.

@ballista11 Yep. They’re all pushing us into fascism with their downplaying of the actual situation.

@StillIRise1963 wait which show?

@BlueWaver22 I was referring to the network. Their attitude as discussed in the NYT article with the fascist slant.

@StillIRise1963 Yes but it's great for the ratings 🤑

@Aviva_Gary But, is it? Are there fascists watching that channel who are bummed? It made me stop watching.

@StillIRise1963 Comcast suits ordering the "both sides" BS again?

@StillIRise1963 I don't have cable anymore,but obviously I'm not missing a thing. Remember,NBC/Comcast helped normalize Trump for white America with The Apprentice. And had him on Morning Joe every chance they got before the 2016 election. And even after he lost in 2020. They're as complicit in this right-wing BS as the other networks. Profits and ratings. And nothing else. All journalistic credibility got tossed out the door years ago.

@StillIRise1963 What did I miss on MSNBC this time?

StillIRise1963,
@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@timo21 This horrible article. The content is horrible and the author is too.

Gift Article:

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/15/business/media/nbc-msnbc-trump-biden.html?unlocked_article_code=1.sE0.QL5P.K7jvhR8WPuvO&smid=url-share

@StillIRise1963 Thanks for the article, which reads like something from the National Review: Non-conservative media is to be scorned. The article also cherry picked the facts and ignored the plethora of republican 'never-trumpers' on MSNBC. The primary takeaway is the affirmation that the 21st Century version of the NYT is not representative of the country, but is, at a minimum, leaning to the corporate libertarian right (i.e. fascists).

StillIRise1963,
@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@timo21 That’s my takeaway as well.

@StillIRise1963 so yes, complicit was the correct word to use for the NYT. All the corporate media that is stonewalling Joe Biden's activities. Remember when Trump was on every freaking day?

RE
reported that MSNBC hosts,...They say their message — that Mr. Trump’s candidacy represents a unique and clear threat to democracy — is an urgent one for the electorate to hear

I dont see fascist on , I see great in the court reporting, like "he has his eyes closed 80 to 90% of the time"

⭕He is showing his defiance to the jury

If not for MSNBC, only the jury would see this fascist conman tactic

May 14 2024 (Deadline White House) "He has his eyes closed 80 to 90% of the time" He is showing his defiance to the jury

RE
X cept 4 M.Joe

I see that, 😆, but there are the lighter (or darker in this case) side with this interview with #Platon Photographer on his book, The Defenders

check out this short video (from #morningjoe #msnbc) from May 13 or 14 2024

He photographed Trump and asked him, how to you deal with your hectic (Stormy) active day to day life? Trump just said, "I am the storm."

@6G I was actually referring to what the people who run it said, as per the NYT article. @alexhammy @timo21
