Fake News

While the term goes back 100 years, the history is summed up well by Sharyl Attkisson. While the term goes back 100 years, the history is summed up well in a Sharyl Attkisson. While our media has always had false narratives and bad stories that are Fake News, we didn't use the term "Fake News". We called it liberal media bias or journalistic incompetence, but it's been around since the first liberal got sloppy somewhere back in Roman times. ℹ️ Info           ~ Aristotle Sabouni Created: 2019-08-16

While our media has always had false narratives and bad stories that are Fake News (exampled include: Edward R. Murrow's "See it now" McCarthy'ing Joe McCarthy (1954), Richard Jewel story (1996), story about a plane crashing into Camp David after 9/11 (2001), Duke LeCross Rape Case (2014), Michael Brown and 'hands up, don't shoot' narrative (2014), and so on). We didn't use the term "Fake News". We called it liberal media bias or journalistic incompetence, but it's been around since the first liberal got sloppy somewhere back in Roman times.

Then on September 13, 2016 Hillary Clinton supporters Google and Eric Schmidt, used a shell charity (a non-profit called "First Draft,") to start seeding the term to attack right wing websites ("to tackle malicious hoaxes and fake news reports"). Hillary Clinton and her surrogate David Brock of Media Matters admitted in a campaign letter that they pressured Facebook to join the effort. Google warned Conservative websites to remove stories that Google didn't like, or they'd take away their ad revenue. And Barack Obama and the liberal media followed along, regurgitating what they were told: none were going to let this opportunity (to curate what information we could see) go to waste, all in the name of protecting free speech. All coincidentally done at the same time, in what could only be a coordinated campaign attack.

Unfortunately for them, it backfired when people noticed that the mainstream liberal media made more errors and was less honest, and started throwing it back in their face. Fake News applied more to the News, Google, Facebook, Obama and other curators and finger pointers than their victims. Donald Trump used that to hijack the term and use it back against them. The left tried to change the narrative and pretend that Trump had created the term, and they wanted to stop using it and claimed it was a hateful term and an attack on free press to point out the Presses bias or errors. And that's where we are today.

FakeNews

Here's just a small taste:

FakeNews • [376 items]

Title	Image	Summary
118 year old Michigan Man votes by absentee ballot		Did the Detroit give and count an absentee ballot from a 118-year-old dead voter, as a video or FB post shows? Yes, but they claim it was just a clerical error and it went to his son (who is still alive) and he filled it out for himself. But that doesn't change that a dead man voted and got miscounted (even if it was a 1:1 trade).
1619 Project		The NY Times’ 1619 Project was created by anti-American Marxists with the goal to reimagine American history from a racist point of view. By imagining America as founded on Slavery (in 1619), it means it's part of our immutable DNA, thus we must destroy America to remake it in a more enlightened Socialist/Fascist image.
1938 Hitler: Time Man of the Year		"Man of the Year" isn't always a good thing (and is about "impact"), the truth is that Time was sometimes fawning and positive about Hitler. It's like the old joke, "But he was great with Dogs and Children"... which might be true, but doesn't overshadow the other character and behavioral flaws that they chose not to dwell on.
1996 Andrew Dice Clay Ambush		I don't know if they were trying to ambush him with something, or just be incompetent, but the comedian lost it, used obscenities, and walked off over their insulting incompetence. He obviously felt they got him there over false pretenses and insulted him.
2001.03.01 T.R.O.L.L.		Snopes had a whole section for spreading disinformation called "The Repository of Lost Legends" or T.R.O.L.L. While it was intended to teach skepticism, by telling things that weren't true, and seeing if people would figure it out -- it was just condescending misinformation and hurt their brand of being a trustworthy source.
2002.10.12 Up-the-butt Bob		There was a famous Newlywed gameshow story, where a female contestant was asked "what's the strangest place you made whoopee" and she replied, "in the ass". The problem isn't that Snopes is wrong today, they found the clip and the article has a lot of backstory.
2003.04.10 Tools of the Tyrant		🔥 Only after the fall of Baghdad, on-air and in an Op-Ed titled, "The News We Kept to Ourselves", CNN's exec-in-charge admit (Eason Jordan) admitted to having suppressed from the public the truth about Saddam being a murderous tyrant, in order to keep CNN's access to Iraq.
2004.04.24 Ozone Man		New Yorker (Remnick) reviewed Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" and wrote: "[Gore] insists that we focus on what likely will be an uninhabitable planet if we fail to pay attention to the folly we are committing". Remnick rails against Bush for not believing the Junk Science. When the "documentary" became debunked bullshit, New Yorker/Remnick never retracted or apologized.
2005.02.11 U.S. targets journalists		CNN Director Eason Jordon was forced to resign after falsely claiming the U.S. (and Iraq) were intentionally targeting innocents and journalists in Iraq.
2009 Glaciers gone by 2020		After Al Gore's error filled Inconvenient Truth, a lot of places, including Glacier National Park put up propaganda sensationalizing their watermelon socialist predictions, like signs around the park predicting that the Glaciers would be gone by 2020 or 2030. Since they were devistatingly wrong, they removed them.
2009.01.15 Cheers for Obama		WaPo staff caught cheering an Obama (President Elect) visit back in 2009. Back then, they knew that this was a highly partisan act that showed their lack of objectivity, and they still cared, so they tried to make excuses that there's no proof it was reporters (and made no effort to check the facts on that). But everyone who knows WaPo and their staff knows better.
2009.05.04 College Park, GA		2 armed men prepared to rape and kill 10 people, when one victim pulls a gun and prevents it. Since they were all black, and a gun was used to stop massacre, FakeNews suppressed this story...
2009.07.15 Eugenics support		Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said in Sunday’s New York Times Magazine: “Frankly I had thought that at the time [Roe v. Wade] was decided... there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of.”... there was some inferred support for the thinking and for abortion because of it.
2011.01.08 Gabby Giffords		The NYT charged Sarah Palin/Tea Party with being responsible for Gabby Giffords shooting in 2011.
2012.07.19 Masterpiece Cakeshop		Jack Phillips was approached by a gay couple that asked him to bake them a wedding cake. He politely explained that Colorado didn't recognize gay marriage (yet), and he wouldn't use his tradecraft for an issue that violated his personal beliefs. He would serve them, sell to them, and so on, but that wasn't enough for the activists who sued him. And lost. Repeatedly.
2013.04.27 Good enough		While it is a little stale (2013) and things changed after a few more liberal editors and the 2016 election, Snopes does do a reasonably good enough job at debunking the easy and non-political stuff. Even if they miss on a few, or are slow to correct others. At least for the skeptical libertarian. Just don't use them as thought police.
2013.06.01 IRS Abuse Scam		During the 2012 Obama election, the Obama Administrations IRS agents targeted conservative not-for-profit political filings, and the blocked them getting their status (election interference), CNN spun the story as it was "2" low-level folks and completely a regional problem". It was 88 folks that ran the center which controls 401(c)(d)'s for the entire nation.
2013.12.12 Obama and Politifact share lie of the year		2008-2013 Politifact rated anyone who criticized Obama's "If you like your plan/doctor, you can keep it" as Pants-on-fire. Then in 2013 the lie of the year poll was the promise that you could keep your doctor/plan. It wasn't even on the ballot, it was a write in by so many that had lost coverage, that PolitFact had to admit it. (Without retraction or apology).
2014.03.06 Man who invented Bitcoin		The opening story after their big re-launch was on the man Newsweek doxxed and claimed, "Invented Bitcoin"... and he denies inventing bitcoin. First they stood by the story, then they corrected it. That's kinda a big fuck up.
2014.08.06 VoterID Fraud		Justin Levitt did a "Study" that found only 31 convictions of voter fraud. It was utter crap (methodologically), but started the idea among the gullible and dishonest that we don't have a voter fraud problem. In truth it shows that we don't have enough tracking to arrest/convict most people committing voter fraud. And Democrats are fighting adding any controls.
2014.08.09 Michael Brown		CNN and other networks totally mislead the public with Michael Brown as a"Gentle Giant" and "hands up, don't shoot" falsehoods, many years after it's been proven to be false.
2015.07.21 Holistic Doctors		Erin Elizabeth of HealthNutNews complains about how snopes wronged her, with getting lots of little factoids wrong. Not sure who I believe in this one, but Erin definitely went full vendetta on many mistakes she found not only in misrepresenting her article, but in others. And at least a few of her complaints seem legit.
2015.08.03 Koch lies		The far-left hates Koch brothers, and so Time distorted a tweet into pretending he's pro-bombing. He was actually mocking GDP measures and using bombing as an example that only destroys value, but gets counted as adding value to GDP. Almost directly the opposite of what Time claimed.
2015.11.26 Trump and Disabled Reporter		💩 WaPo "fact checked" Trump on a claim about arabs in NJ celebrating after 9/11, and claimed it was false. It wasn't (according to WaPo 2001). Trump mocked WaPo with stammering and flailing to walk back their lie. They paused a video and pretending he was mocking a disabled reporter to distract from their incompetence/malfeasance. FakeNews went with it.
2015.12.05 NYT Gun Editorial		Ahh, the NYT's gets facts wrong, and advocates for fascism, just like they did in the 30's. They attack the 2A, ignore motives, claim Americans should NOT judge all Muslims by a few fanatics but you SHOULD judge all gun owners by a few fanatics, and other fallacies that ignore in America, places with Gun Control underperform those that are free.
2015.12.13 NYT FakeNews about Guns		Another anti-gun hit-piece in NYT titled "I’m a Responsible Gun Owner? Seriously?". They turned over their editorial pages to far left founder of UT Students Against Guns on Campus, with no balance/rebuttals allowed, as usual. An irresponsible "journalist" poses as an irresponsible gun-owner and laments what a threat guns are... if you ignore facts, statistics and logic.
2016 Cover Bias		The photos you choose (or covers), can tell quite a story about your intent/bias. Time Magazine has a proud history of demonstrating bias in photojournalism.
2016 Hating Trump		The NYT despises Trump as much as they loved and wrote puff-pieces about Obama. They compare Trump to Manson (a far left hippie trying to start a race war), or Hitler (a far left Socialist), or worse, in supposed News articles. They got caught inventing stories like "Pence is going to run against Trump in 2020" -- which Pence called "Laughably Absurd".
2016 Obama, Hillary and the Russian "pee-pee" Dossier		Hillary Clinton campaign paid Steele (Russian Operative), to create a fake and discredited dossier. Then they used (James Comey, John McCain to leak it to the press. Obama's FBI used the Press Story to lie to the FISA court to get an illegal warran to spy on Trump. Everything the Democrats accused the Trump Administration of, Hillary actually did.
2016- Russia Trump-Collusion FakeNews Fiasco		FakeNews (CNN, NYT, WaPo, MSNBC) has been promoting this Fraud that there was Trump-Russia Collusion, that collusion is a crime (it isn't or Carter, Kennedy, Bill and Hillary Clinton and Obama would all be in prison). Years later, it was all exposed, long after the damage had been done.
2016.02.10 Hamilton, Alabama		Jimmy Cooper (mentally disturbed individual) shot two people, but was stopped by an anonymous armed civilian shot at and distract Cooper. His role was downplayed by the media, but appears to be a critical factor in reducing loss of life.
2016.03.10 B & L Landscape Company (Florida)		After worker (Ezequiel Soriano Lopez) shot his boss (Andrew William Little) of B & L landscape (Jacksonville, FL), a 3rd employee (Joseph Curry) drew his gun and stopped the rampage from going further, and prevented Lopez from leaving until the police arrived. Most media (and ABC) omits key context.
2016.04.14 Gay Pastor sues Whole Foods over gay slur cake		Openly gay Texas pastor (Jordan Brown) claimed a cake he bought said, "Fag". The media ran with it. Whole Foods released security video that showed it didn't when it left the store, and counter-sued. Brown apologized. The media didn't.
2016.05.02 Hillary and the Rapist		One complaint was against Hillary for laughing about getting a child rapist off when she was a defense lawyer. This was true. Even lefty-FactCheck admitted it was true. But Snopes, WaPo and Politifact parsed words, inferred intent (It was just a nervous laugh), and went beyond fact-checking into water-carrier status.
2016.06 Anthony Scaramucci		CNN published a story (based on one anonymous source), claiming Anthony Scaramucci was being investigated by the Senate into the Russian Direct Investment Fund. They had to retract it, and admit it wasn't up to their editorial standards, and three reporters had to resign. It's like Journalism, without the standards.
2016.07.26 Flags at DNC		Conservative media outlets (like DC) noted that the American flag was conspicuously physically absent on the set of the Democratic National Convention on its first day. Left-of-center Politifact admitted it too. But liberal media went into full-spin mode.
2016.08.09 Lesbian Central Michigan University Professor beats herself up		While attending a Toby Keith concert Mari Poindexter claims a man called her a “cross-dressing fag", then ambushed her in the parking lot. CMU and the media rallied around her. Later it was exposed she punched herself in the eye, and made up the story to "raise awareness".
2016.08.16 Calling for peace?		CNN falsely claims (and edits a video to show), Sherelle Smith and Kimberly Neal were “calling for peace” amidst riots in their neighborhood. Only they were clearly not. In the unedited video they said, , “Y’all burning down shit we need in our community. Take that shit to the suburbs. Burn that shit down.” That's not a call for peace, just moving the violence.
2016.09.23 Bush lost 22 Million Emails		Ignoring that the point of their whataboutism was to distract from Hillary Clinton's high crimes of intentionally deleting government property and evidence of her crimes, while Bush's was a temporary (and rectified) transition. Most of the lies in their "Bush lost 22 Million Emails" piece are lies of omission, in at least this event kinda happened, just not in how they represented it.
2016.10.02 Molon Labe		NPR pretentiously tries to mock the 2nd Amendment folks, and makes fools of themselves (on our tax dollar). Again. This whine was about the appropriation of the one true meaning of Molon Labe, and its appropriate use by the 2A proponents, then NPR muddles the history/facts/intent, and forgets about the original use by King Leonidas I of Sparta (480 BC).
2016.10.17 Illegal to read Wikileaks		CNN's Chris Cuomo moronically says it's illegal for the public to look at Wikileaks, but it's different for the media (so trust them to filter for you). Both are wrong. Even left of center WaPo had to admit that was FakeNews. In the name of journalistic standards, he was never fired, nor issued a correction, retraction or apology. I'm embarassed for both of them.
2016.10.24 Stock Market Crash		CNN predicts a Trump win will crash stock markets 10-15%, but a Clinton win would be great. The stock market responded to a Trump win by leaping upward, and continued to break records for a couple years, before having a normal correction. In fact, it when ABC spread Fake rumors of Trump's tax plan getting blocked, the market did panic (not the other way around).
2016.10.31 Election Tampering		CNN’s Donna Brazile fed Hillary Clinton the debate questions ahead of debate. CNN/Donna denied it, it was later proven. It took CNN about a month to reluctantly fire her after so many years of polemic service.
2016.11.01 Greenville, Mississippi black church fire		Greenville, Mississippi church was set on fire and spray painted with the words “Vote Trump”, by a Black Democrat (Andrew McClinton), trying to frame Trump Supporters for the Race Hate. The Media had fostered it, and in reponse outlets (Atlantic, NYT, CNN, SPLC) ran sensational headlines about how bad Trump and his white supremacist supporters were to do it.
2016.11.08 Trump Loses		"Trump has no path to 270 - he can't win", "This race is over!", "Hillary has >90% chance of winning." -- CNN, WaPo and others were wrong on everything. Not only that he could win, but which states and groups he'd carry.
2016.11.11 Louisiana Muslim claimed robbed by whites		A Muslim woman faces criminal charges in Louisiana over a fake story about how she was attacked by MAGA hat wearing white men, who yelled racial slurs and stole both her wallet and her hijab. The FakeNews widely reported this, and rarely corrected the record.
2016.11.13 Anti-Trump graffiti in L.A.		"Fucc Trump" graffiti popped up on Sepulveda Boulevard in Los Angeles.
2016.11.13 Indiana Church Grafitti		David's Episcopal Church in Bean Blossom (40 miles out of Indianapolis) had "Fag Church", "Swastika" and "Heil Trump" spray painted on it (the church recognizes Gay Marriage). It later came out that George "Nathan" Stang is a gay man that did it to get attention in a False Flag effort. CNN and USAToday sensationalized the story, and USAToday tried to correct the record.
2016.11.14 Fake Homophobic note at Chicago's North Park University		Taylor Volk, a bisexual senior at Chicago's North Park University, claimed she was the recipient of a homophobic note and anonymous hate emails by "Trump supporters". After NBC had sensationalized it, it came out that Taylor had faked it herself.
2016.11.15 Six Communists arrested for assaulting Trump supporters		The "peaceful" protestors (according to FakeNews) and members of Red Guards Austin, were arrested for felony aggravated assault on Trump supporters while wearing masks, also resisting and evading arrest.
2016.12.03 Whites assault Muslim in NYC		Poor 18yo Baruch College Student Yasmin Seweid, 3 white Trump supporters screamed "terrorist go home!" and tore her Hijab off, while onlookers ignored it... according to all the news outlets. Then it comes out she made the whole thing up, and virtually none corrected or retracted the story, or reported the story of the hundreds of FakeHate crimes that happened.
2016.12.09 Sophisticated Russians Hack		WaPo claims that a sophisticated attack by Russians to hack the election happened: security experts laugh it off as both amateur hour of an attack (off-the-shelf and out-of-date root-kit with a spear-phishing campaign), fuzzy ties to Russians, no hacking of the actual election (only leaking the truth via DNC emails: aka investigative journalism), and no evidence that they were the source for Wikileaks.
2016.12.21 Kicked off Delta for speaking Arabic		Adam Saleh (known hoaxer) claimed he got kicked out of a Delta flight because he spoke Arabic to his mom. Media outlets ran with Saleh’s story without checking the source. They were really kicked off for yelling back and forth after being asked to be quiet, and not following directions, and then they started filming claiming they were victims.
2016.12.22 Embezzling, Hookers, Divorce (oh my)		Just because David Mikkelson (Snopes CEO/Founder) was caught up in an unsavory divorce, or embezzled money to rent hookers, and they have no hard defined editorial standards, doesn't mean everything they wrote is crap. Most of it is fine. But the point is that I'm unconvinced that they're the paragon of moral, ethical and quality standards.
2016.12.31 Russians hack our power grid		Amid rising tension over the DNC's fake Trump Russian Collusion narrative, WaPo (Ellen Nakashima and Juliet Eilperin) invented that the Russians were also responsible for a Vermont PowerGrid attack. The Utility denied the claim, and WaPo tries to blame them, and claims they'd contacted them, and rewrites the story... but botches the rewrite as well. And it appears that they lied about trying to contact the power companies, and hadn't done their due diligence.
2017 - 17 Intelligence Agencies		Hillary Campaign Talking Point was that "17 intelligence agencies" agreed that Russians had hacked the election. The NYT printed it and CNN repeated it for years. James Clapper admitted in front of congress that was bullshit and that he only had 3 (or 4) agencies under his purview, and that 2 of them had disagreed until pressured. CNN kept repeated the lie anyways.
2017 More Comey Fakes		Beside the debunked FakeNews Trump under Investigation, or Comey Firing tropes. There were these sub-claims that were all debunked as well: Comey wasn't granted more resources for investigation: False. Trump is going to live tweet during Comey hearing: False. Comey is an apolotical Boy Scout : False. Trump fired Comey over investigation: the FBI's report showed that it was violation of ethics.
2017 Obama Wiretapping		In March, CNN and other far-left outlets denounced Trumps claim that Obama had wiretapped phones in Trump Tower as a “flat-out lie.” (Despite the fact that Trump was quoting the NYT on that). By September they admitted that Carter Page and Paul Manafort were both wiretapped (while in Trump Tower). Not only don't they offer a retraction/apology, they still mock the idea that there was wiretapping, long after they admitted that it was proven true.
2017 Republicans funded the Dossier		FakeNews repeated leftist agitprop that the Republicans funded the PeePee Dossier, thus it must be true. It was Hillary all along. Yet the media kept repeating the lie, or slow-rolling or burying the corrections. No social media punished anyone for repeating the disinformation that it was Republican-funded.
2017.01.02 Fallout 4		In order to show how serious this Russia Hacking thing is, CNN used screenshots from Fallout 4, as a graphic, because nothing says quality news like made up photos from a game, to show the seriousness of the issue! Not good optics.
2017.01.10 Fake Dossier		Nobody wanted to publish the discredited Steele (Pee Pee) Dossier, which turned out to be Hillary disinformation. BuzzFeed was first to post the tabloid garbage... then NYT, CNN, MSNBC, NBC, and others jumped on board. For years, the right wing exposed how stupid the claims were. It wasn't until 5 years later, many of the left wing publications offered back page retractions.
2017.01.20 MLK Bust		Time/Examiner - Trump pulled the MLK bust out of Oval Office. Never mind, it was moved in the same room, and the Churchill bust that Obama removed was brought back. Lesson: don't shittweet before factcheck!
2017.01.20 Nancy Sinatra		Nancy tweeted a joke about her late father’s song “My Way,” being used at Trump’s Inauguration. She tweeted, "just remember the first line of the song", which is, “And now, the end is near.” CNN used that to invent a FakeNews story that she was “not happy” about Trump using her father’s song at the Inauguration. To which she replied, "That’s not true. I never said that. Why do you lie, CNN? What a rotten spin to put on a harmless joke.”
2017.01.20 Scrubbed Climate Change and LGBT		ZOMG: Minutes in, and Trump is purging the Government (White House Website) of LGBT and Climate Change info: OrangeMan Bad! Only, this normal operating procedure to archive the old White House pages and start fresh (it happened under Clinton->Bush and Bush->Obama). No retractions, corrections or apologies given.
2017.01.23 Wall of Sacrifice		CNN (Jim Sciutto) insisted Donald Trump didn’t “say anything” about the CIA's wall of sacrifice behind him during his speech to employees at the Central Intelligence Agency - proven false.
2017.01.31 Hardiman Decoy		CNN falsely Claims Trump Brought Judge Neil Hardiman to DC (and setup a fake twitter account) as Supreme Court Nominee ‘Decoy’, and that's why they were mistaken. Hardiman wasn't in town, wasn't a decoy, it wasn't his twitter account, and if they fact checked, they'd have known that.
2017.02 Trumps ExecOrder cause a Woman's Death		CNN's Erol Lewis pushed a false story that Trump’s Executive Immigration Order caused Michigan Woman’s Death, after the story had already been disproven. If they retracted and apologized, they might not be known as FakeNews.
2017.02.09 FakeNews		CNN uses ‘Fake News' widely to attack Trump/Conservatives, then claims the term is like using the N-Word when Trump uses it back (with more justification). Then when Bernie Sanders uses the 100 year old term and jokes that CNN is "Fake News", they 'accidentally' lose his connection.
2017.02.10 Akie Abe		FakeNews story that Melania Trump blew off Akie Abe (Japan PM's wife) during the PM's visit. Photos show Donald and Melania with her at the time. No apology or retraction.
2017.02.15 Russian Contact		CNN repeatedly claimed Trump had "constant contact" with Russians during campaign. Only Trump didn't appear to have any direct contact. And it is normal for their campaigns to have some, but Trump's had less than normal and certainly less than Hillary's campaign (with the Steel Dossier). And many investigations have not found anything to hint that he colluded with the Russians to fix a campaign. Or that the Russians did anything to successfully change the outcome of our election.
2017.02.15 Tucker Carlson roasts Erik Wemple		Video where Tucker calls out WaPo (Erik Wemple, their media critic) for criticizing Trump administration over "Russia" ties, while they are running "native advertising", which is code for Russia writes and distributes their own propaganda pamphlets distributed inside WaPo.
2017.02.24 Shut-out over facts		CNN whines (after getting shut out of a Press event after running the Fake Dossier) claiming retaliation, only the dossier was fake (not fact), they weren shut out because they lied and refused to correct it (not Dossier), and they were caught admitting on tape that they were intentionally lying (spinning) because they wanted to undermine Trump.
2017.03.05 Rasmea Odeh		The March 8th "Day Without A Woman" protest was created by Rasmea: a Palestinian anti-semite terrorist, guilty of a 1969 bombing and murder of 2 in Israel. Snopes took the far left BDS/Palestinian position of using false and debunked excuses for her behavior.
2017.03.25 MAGA Assault		Jessica Aguilar was a 23 year old anti-Trump demonstrator that assaulted a guy, twice, on an OC beach for having the audacity to wear a MAGA hat. That and a few dozen other assaults on Trump supporters lead to a riot/brawl on Bolsa Chica State Beach. Of course the FakeNews LAT spun it that the MAGA hat wearers were at fault.
2017.04.11 Spicer: Hitler didn't use chemical weapons		Sean Spicer (Press Secretary) misspoke and apologized/corrected himself in the same news-conference (while talking about chemical weapons). Far-left outfits (CNN, CBS, MSNBC, Snopes, Politifact), ignored the correction/clarification and used the gaff as a way to attack Spicer and Trump, and spin a non-story into evidence of why they were a bad administration.
2017.04.21 Carter Page Colluded with Russia		CNN claimed many times that Carter Paige colluded with Russia (wrt Trump Campaign), and spread the myth amongst their viewers for a year. It turns out that Carter Page was a victim of Obama Administration using National Intelligence to lie to federal judges, to spy on the Trump campaign during an election. After tapping his phones and so on, nobody has been able to find anything to tie him to Russian collusion.
2017.05 James Comey Firing		For 6 months the media and Democrats had demanded the firing of James Comey. Trump waited until an FBI report cited evidence of gross misconduct, and then the AG fired Comey after consulting with Trump. The Democrats and their Media (NYT, WaPo, Politico, CNN, MSNBC), switched sides and screamed that this was illegal, obstruction of justice, proof of Russia collusion.
2017.05.04 Rape and Violence		CNN Says Trump changes to ACA will make Rape and Domestic Violence a Pre-Existing Condition. Even left of center PolitiFact, had to admit that one was FakeNews, "the bill does not change what is or is not a pre-existing condition; the health insurance companies write those definitions for themselves". No correction from CNN.
2017.05.10 anti-Wikileaks		WikiLeaks has 100% perfect record of authentic and accurately-vetted releases, so NPR and MSNBC tried to trash for their better record by pointing to non-Wikileaks content, and pointing out that since some of it isn't valid, then you shouldn't trust Wikileaks. That's like claiming you shoudn't trust NPR and MSNBC because some of their guests lie.
2017.05.11 Trump gets 2 scoops of Ice cream		According to Time and CNN's breaking news, Trump likes 2 scoops of Ice cream, while everyone else at the table gets only one. Unvetted rumors of the President being an ice cream hound isn't news, despite CNN devoting multiple segments to it. This is an epitome of FakeNews.
2017.05.11 Trump to fire Spicer		Starting in May, CNN was saying they had great information that Sean Spicer was out and going to be fired by Trump (any day). He wasn't. Spicer was unhappy about the appointment of Scaramucci, and at the end of July he resigned, while Trump asked Spicer to stay, and he did until August. This was the opposite of what CNN had been saying.
2017.05.15 Russia-Leaks		WaPo invented a story that Trump leaked highly classified information to Russian ambassador. Ignoring that Trump has the ultimate authority on what is classified or not (so he can't be guilty of leaking), the head of National Security was in the room and said it didn't happen. WaPo never retracted their "scoop", despite no evidence to support it.
2017.05.15 Russia-leak Cheers		WaPo invents a FakeNews story (that Trump leaked info to the Russians, which was debunked), then they are heard cheering about it breaking a Hollywood Access record for most readers per minute. We don't know if they're cheering the Russians, their undermining of the truth, that their lie is so popular that their gullible readers believe it, or that they're now more FakeNews (Gossipy) than Hollywood access. None seems to reflect well on them.
2017.05.17 Seth Rich		There was a lot of news around Seth Rich (murdered) of being the source of the WikiLeaks emails, including inferences from Julian Assange himself. Because it didn't fit WaPo's narrative, they were mum on the whole topic. The reports at the time are likely bullshit (and have since been altered or purged), but there was more evidence for it at the time than there was for most stories WaPo was running that was blaming it on "the Russians". Even if you only report something to refute it, suppressing things you don't like is called FakeNews.
2017.05.25 NATO		Trump criticized European Countries for doding their responsibilities to NATO, they startled slacking on their obligations slightly less, and came up with more money. The Press, Left and EU blamed Trump for hurting NATO by pointing out their failures and demanding they do better, white NATO confesses they got $100B and stronger because of it.
2017.06 Exposure and arrest of a confidential source		Story asserted that Russian intelligence had hacked American voter registration/polling company. Not only was the story false (they had been thwarted), it was used to back the Fake Russian Collusion Narrative (which was also false), and it got the people leaking the documents to the Intercept arrested.
2017.06.04 Staging Protest		Becky Anderson fakes a News Report in London, or they got caught staging protests for the camera, or they use green screens or split screen to pretend they're somewhere they aren't, all to manipulate the public. Their defense was "everyone does it".
2017.06.06 Trump was under Investigation		CNN's claimed (3+ months) that Trump would be impeached for Obstruction of Justice, because he fired Comey, over Comey not stopping an investigation. 3 pieces of FakeNews in one: (1) Trump wasn't under investigation (2) Trump wasn't stopping an investigation (3) There couldn't have been obstruction of a non investigation. No investigation = No obstruction!
2017.06.12 Omits Islam from Islamic attack		WaPo forgot to mention anything about Islam or Terrorism in rememberence of Orlando (Pulse) nightclub shooting. They remembered to stress the need for gun control and gay safe spaces, since Omar didn't know it was a gay nightclub, and no proposed gun control laws that would have helped (since he passed background checks).
2017.06.13 Cillizza FakeNews fiasco		After mocking leftist (CNN) Trump conspiracy theories, Chris Cillizza joins CNN's ranks, and reverses course. He whines about Trump's accusations of FakeNews with a challenge to offer specific examples... which results in a tidal-wave (thousands) of twitter responses (2,400+ examples).
2017.08.18 Antifa Apologism		After years of calling the Tea Party "tea baggers", or misrepresenting the alt-right, they wrote a 100% sympathetic piece of propaganda promoting antifa, after months of not reporting violence at their events or agenda. "These poor enraged kids are fighting for a good cause, just not in a good way".
2017.08.21 Hallmark of Dishonesty		Politicizing everything into being Trumps fault is FakeNews. Like the headline, "The feel-good Hallmark Channel is booming in the age of Trump". Damn that Trump ruins everything, so in 2017 what are poor viewers to do but shelter themselves from his madness, as demonstrated by a 9 percent increase in Hallmark viewers (escapism). Never-mind the lie of omission that Hallmark saw a 46 percent increase in viewers the year before, so viewership growth is down under Trump.
2017.08.28 Ted Cruz Ambush		To give you an idea of the kind of ambush politics MSNBC plays, in the middle of a Natural Disaster (Harvey), where Ted Cruz is talking about disaster relief, Katy Tur ambushes Cruz over non support of a 2012 pork-laden Hurricane Sandy bill (called Sandy Scam).
2017.08.31 Manafort 'Donations'		NBC News hyped as a “bombshell” last week, that the, “Manafort Notes From Russian Meet Contain Cryptic Reference to ‘Donations'”. This could be pay-to-play and impeachment. Then they issued a confusing correction (same day) that they meant to say "Donor". Only that didn't appear in the original either. And WaPo slammed NBC for trashy journalism.
2017.09 Hurricane Maria		While the FEMA preparation and response to Hurricane Maria was fantastic, but the Democrat controlled Island Government failed to distribute those supplies, turning a disaster into a catastrophe. While Puerto Rico’s own governor, Ricardo Rosselló, was praising Trump’s attention and response to Hurricane Maria, CNN was spinning FakeNews as this was Trump’s ‘Katrina', (and kept beating on that meme for a year)... trying desperately to point blame towards the President for the failure of Democrat controlled Puerto Rican infrastructure. (Texas and Florida had no such problems, despite similar hits).
2017.09.28 Boobgate		CNN reporter was shocked when a radio jock said that he loved boobs... then gushes over Hugh Hefner after he died.
2017.09.29 FakeNews Twitter		CNN claimed that FakeNews on Twitter is what allowed Trump to win the 2016 elections: the study was debunked.
2017.10 This is an Apple		CNN tried to combat their perception as FakeNews, by claiming that they're purveyors of truth, and those saying they aren't are liars, with "This is an Apple" ad campaign. Which started a trend of ads and meme's mocking them. The campaign is quickly dropped.
2017.10.19 Weinstein is Trump's fault		Seriously, CNN blames Trump for Harvey Weinstein. After CNN buries 24 other sexual scandals by Democrats, and there were hundreds more, as you can see in my Gropegate list, the single biggest factor on whether CNN will cover it or bury it, is whether there's an (R) or (D) after the persons name. And even when it's obviously a Democrat, they try to think of excuses why that's really the Republicans fault.
2017.10.21 NPR Bias		NPR CEO did a good thing, by admitting they're biased (FakeNews)... and when the ex-CEO got out of his progressive bubble, and visited America, he was pleasantly surprised by what he found. It's a shame that this article had to run in NYPost, and is like nothing you'd ever hear on NPR.
2017.10.25 Why Trump hates dogs?		Hard hitting journalists ask the big questions, "dog is famously man's best friend—but it is not this president's" And because Trump used the phrase "Couldn’t get elected dog catcher in Tennessee” it's obvious that he's a canine-hater.
2017.11.06 Japan fish-feeding frenzy		CNN got caught deceptively editing a reel to make it look like Trump made a fish feeding blunder by dumping the box of food in the Koi pond, and turned it into a big story... after omitting that PM Abe did the same thing first. Then they deceptively edited a joke on where the Japanese should build more cars in America (they played it as if he didn't know they already did). CNN's author did later issue a correction for the second FakeNews fabrication of the day.
2017.11.16 WaPo confirmed a forged Signature.		A shaky claim Republican Roy Moore) attempted rape of a girl (Beverly Nelson). Evidence included that accusation that he'd signed her yearbook. WaPo's experts confirmed the validity of a signature. Moore, and Beverly, admitted she had forged it, and was lying. WaPo never offered a retraction or apology.
2017.11.22 WaPo Reporter collaborating with Democrats		In a surprise to no one, left leaning WaPo reporter Janell Ross gives Strategy Briefing to secret Soros/DNC dark-money donor group conference. Once caught, WaPo claims it was without approval, and had to reluctantly put her on leave... 2 months later. Even the post won't let their progressive activist (who helps Democrats win elections) get caught doing it. At least not once it goes public.
2017.11.29 Ivanka plagiarized herself		Newsweek tried to imply that Ivanka, by repeating parts of her own speech was plagiarizing... herself. That's not how any of this works. Then they altered their headline to "recycled" when called on it. That's not how Journalistic integrity works.
2017.12 Cheers Democrat in Election		CNN shows their non-biased professionalism by chearing on the set, when the Democrat Doug Jones takes the lead in the Alabama special election (over Moore). I feel bad for them.
2017.12 Jeff Sessions lied about Russia		CNN and the DNC spent a ton of time making a big stink in May about Jeff Sessions lied about contact with the Russians and called for Sessions to retire over this (and pounded the narrative for a month). Then in December, CNN had to quietly admit that the evidence shows Sessions was right all along. The usual front page allegation, back page retraction...
2017.12.01 Flynn Fiasco		ABC (Brian Ross) falsely reported that former national security adviser Michael Flynn was prepared to testify that then-candidate Donald Trump ordered him to make contact with the Russians. The stock market dropped a few hundred points immediately, and ABC scapegoated (Suspended) Brian Ross for their failure of quality control.
2017.12.08 Trump Jr. (Wikileaks)		CNN (Manu Raju) had a "bombshell" report that Donald Trump Jr. had early, secret early access to hacked DNC emails from WikiLeaks, 9 days before they were public. It turned out wrong: he only had access to the info the day after Wikileaks went public and no special access had been given. CNN eventually quietly revised their story, but never apologized or admitted how they got the dates wrong.
2017.12.09 Crowd Tweet		WaPo Reporter (Dave Weigel) tweets photo mocking Trump's Pensacola, FL rally... but his photo was hours before Trump arrived. Weigel fixed it quickly, and seemed contrite. But it's a mistake that his side wouldn't make towards Hillary/Obama, and shows he was making a story fit his papers editorial narrative, and looking for things to confirm it.
2018.01 Fire and Fury		Michael Wolff’s wrote a error-filled hit-piece of a book against Trump, with zero credibility, so CNN promoted it and fawned all over Wolff. (Something they never do for more factually correct conservative authors). CNN's Brian Stelter attacked the RNC for quoting him with, “Real factual errors … makes you wonder about the overall content"... then Stelter had to mea culpa, when they proved he had actually said it.
2018.02 South Korean Olympics		There was fawning over the North Korean Brutal Dictator's (Kim Jong Un's) younger Sister (Kim Yo Jong) as the "Korean Ivanka". Adoration for the North Korean Cheerleaders (cheering for their lives). And they "Forgot" to remind the viewers that fascist dictators could always put on big displays (like Greek Columns for their inauguration, or proclamations of stopping the Ocean's rise).
2018.02.02 Dossier Origins		Over a year and a half after the Steele Dossier was shown to be the creation of the Clinton campaign, Jim Sciutto at CNN is still repeating the lie that it was created by the Republicans. It's not just that they're wrong, it's that they lie well beyond when the facts prove them wrong.
2018.02.08 Cody Shearer		CNN claims Cody Shearer (the private intel operative for Hillary Clinton, and the author of Dossier #2), was an "independent journalist." He hasn't been an active journalist in DECADES, this is like referring to Adolf Hitler as an artist.
2018.02.28 Nunes Memo		The Republicans voted to release the Nunes memo which said that the FBI abused power and lied to the FISA court, and mislead the public. Democrats like House Speaker and serial liar Nancy Pelosi and their Media cried foul, and said the Nunes meme was making. The IG DOJ FBI Report and the House Transcripts fully vindicated Nunes and his memo, and proved Dems frauds and liars.
2018.03 Tax Correction		The NYT opposes tax cuts, so they vilified the Trump tax cuts with a erroneous tale about Samuel and Felicity Taxpayer. The paper of record concluded they'd owe an additional $3,896 under the new law. The WSJ did them and explained they'd actually save $43. Then a tax professor at the University of Chicago pointed out WSJ forgot their $1,500 dependent children tax credit.
2018.04.11 NRA, Russians and Newsweek		Newsweek claimed there were 23 Russian-linked "donors" to the NRA. Or about 1/100th as many as to Obama, Biden, Hillary. It turned out to be a nothing burger, it was $2,500 total, over 3 years and most likely just ex-pats or diplomats abroad. No evidence the NRA knew or was soliciting. But it generated front page headlines and back page corrections for the rubes.
2018.04.13 Cohen in Prague		McClatchy claims that Cohen was in Prague, which confirms part of the Steele Dossier, and contradicts Cohen's statement that he wasn't. Only no other outlet believes that, and a few mocked McClatchy for publishing it.
2018.04.13 NAACP President a liar		NAACP President Rev. Jerrod Moultrie posted to Facebook about how he was racially profiled over a traffic stop. Ignoring that you often can't usually tell the race of someone in a car at night before you pull them over, the cops dashcam video proved he lied. Instead of firing a race-baiter, the NAACP doubled down and defended him.
2018.05.03 Cohen Wiretap		MSNBC/NBC broke the story, "“Feds tapped Trump lawyer Michael Cohen’s phones,” -- and later altered the story to say, "Feds are monitoring, not listening to Cohen’s calls”: Instead of a wiretap, investigators obtained what’s known as a pen register warrant, where they get to see a log of calls made and durations, not audio of what was said.
2018.06.06 Melania Conspiracy Theories		Where's Melania? After undergoing kidney surgery, Mrs. Trump took a month off of public events. CNN fed the fire with stories about how, "she hasn't been seen in 24 days", "Where's Melania", on the station, twitter and in newsletters, and propagated FakeNews about her "plastic surgery", "she left him" or "moved back to NYC". Their defense was they were just repeating what they read on Twitter, as if that's where their journalistic line is drawn.
2018.06.07 Suicide trends		WaPo ran an article showing Suicide Numbers trending up: they glossed over many important causes and missed how minute the increase is, and demonstrated mostly clickbait/FakeNews.
2018.06.19 Space Force		In response to China's increased militarization of space, and Russia creating a Space Force, Donald Trump announced that he wanted to split the Air Force Space efforts into a separate agency. The Democrats and their media attacked the idea, ABC news spun it as racist, MSNBC and other outlets just mocked the idea and omitted context and balance in the discussion.
2018.06.21 Immigration Girl		Time never ran a cover article complaining about immigrant abuse during Obama, when this was happening more. But they photoshopped a FakeNews picture on their cover with Trump looking down callously on a girl that was crying and being separated from her mother. The article/context was worse. DailyMail broke the fraud because NYT, WaPo, left doesn't fact check themselves.
2018.06.29 Democratic Socialist		ABC's the View gave Crazy-eyes Cortez the softest of softball interviews, that asked her things like what's the difference between Democrats, Socialism and Democratic Socialism. You'd think this would be easy since she claims she's a Democratic Socialist (just like Hitler and Mussolini), but she couldn't answer.
2018.07 Supreme Court Politicization		To address the Kavanaugh confirmation problem with how the Democrats have been politicizing the Supreme Court (and Justice process) and undermining the Constitution since the turn of the 1900's, Jeffery Toobin tried to invent the excuse that it was because life expectancies had been increasing.
2018.07.02 Fake Immigration Story		WaPo used flawed analysis to count only half of immigrants, and conclude that Trump's policies are suppressing Muslims. Only the rest of the data changes the story. The problem isn't just that WaPo is bad at math/logic, it's that they haven't retracted and apologized.
2018.07.10 Clickhole		WaPo used a Clickhole article as the basis of a hit piece on Trump, only to discover that Clickhole (run by the Onion) is satire. If they had any fact-checkers between them and their anti-Trump propaganda, they would have caught that.
2018.07.12 Immigration mistranslation		As part of a FakeNews series on Cagegate and child separations, CNN asks a mother how her son is doing in immigration detention. Her response in Spanish, "He's doing very well". What CNN translators claim she said, "She says he wants me to be with him. And prays to God to make the day shorter, so we can be together".
2018.07.12 Kavanaugh or RBG		NYT had a snotty tone when intro'ing Brett Kavanaugh's and his record of "diversity". They mentioning the Women, and omitted the other minorities: 6 Asian Americans, 5 African American, and 2 Hispanics. They also omitted that Nefarious RBG has a far worse record for diversity.
2018.07.27 Twice the Speed of Light		There was the time they claimed that Virgin Galactic travelled twice the speed of light. While just a gaffe, it's such a blatant one that it shows incredibly shoddy journalism that it ever got through. Anyone with a clue on science would think, "wait, what? That's not right". Unfortunately, Newsweek doesn't hire people with a clue.
2018.07.31 Avoiding Reporters		The media rightly accuses Trump of being an attention hound. Since "he's damned either way", Jeff Zeleny (WH Reporter for CNN), tweeted Trump had not taken questions from reporters in at least a week. (Something they never complained about under Obama). Then the facts/corrections came out that Trump had done a press conference (with Q&A) the day before. No retraction, apology or consequences for the mistake. This is CNN.
2018.08 McCain memoriam		After smearing McCain during the 2008 election as mentally unfit, temper ridden, wife abuser, sexist, and so on, because he and Trump didn't get along, the media suddenly love McCain and spin everything as Trump slighting this wonderful war hero. McCain was a bitter little man that made sure the President or his running mate weren't invited, multiple people littered the funeral with petty barbs against Trump, and this is all Trump's fault.
2018.09.23 Stacked Panel		CNN presented a panel of what "Republican women" (or Republican Voters) thought of the Kavanaugh hearing. 2 of the 6 were Republican operatives -- which is completely dishonest framing, a journalistic no-no.
2018.10.12 Robert E. Lee		Trump does a speech in Ohio, on how great Ulysses S. Grant was a great Ohio native. And to do so, you mention the greatness of the foes he overcame: so in passing, he mentioning that Robert E. Lee was a great general... and was defeated by Grant. NBC spun that sentence fragment into a “WATCH: President Trump says ‘Robert E. Lee was a great general’". FakeNews.
2018.11.04 SNL Hit Piece		Trump never mocked a disabled Reporter, Saturday Night Live did. Here's SNL star Pete Davidson mocking GOP congressional candidate Dan Crenshaw, a former Navy SEAL who lost an eye fighting in Afghanistan. Davidson referred to Crenshaw as looking like “a hitman in a porno movie.” Keeping it classy.
2018.12.06 Voted out of Congress		A viral claimed “Everyone with an X has since been voted out of Congress.”, but a few members with an X were never in Congress. Snopes still claimed that the “general idea” of the meme was “correct.”
2018.12.22 Govt. Shutdown		The shutdown isn't FakeNews, but everything around it is. (a) people weren't missing paychecks for many weeks. (b) they pretend it is Republicans fault that Democrats won't play nice (c) this will be a catastrophe with huge human suffering (yawn) (d) they gloated that Trump's approval dropped, ignored that Pelosi and dems dropped even more.
2019 Guardians of the year		Time has descended to adding a DNC propaganda rag. A bunch of fraud witnesses and activists came forward with disinformation, in a Scampeachment, using here-say and lies (nothing that would hold up in court), and Time celebrates them, because they were working with the DNC to undermine our democracy. All because Orangeman is bad!
2019.01.02 Trump will resign in 2019		Newsweek claims that Trump will resign in exchange for immunity for him and his family. The opinion of a former Bush advisor (Alan J. Steinberg), as reported in the New Jersey Star-Ledger, using the tried and true method of pulling it out of his ass. Can you imagine a credible magazine reporting such innuendo on any Democrat President?
2019.01.11 Acosta Border Wall		Acosta goes to the border to diminish Trump's claim that there's a crisis... and proves that the Wall helps. e.g. he goes to a section where 'The Wall' has been built and notices how good and safe things are. Duh!
2019.01.23 NY Reproductive Health Act		This law has nothing to do with Roe, once you read past the surface, and any outlet that doesn't offer that context is FakeNews. The outlets that don't cover it, says as much about them as those that cover it poorly.
2019.01.24 Godfather II		CNN keeps making accusations of witness intimidation, with no evidence other than Trumps shit-tweets? Playing a clip of Godfather, and likening it to Donald Trump does nothing to help your credibility as a news channel, but a lot to make you indistinguishable from Comedy Central.
2019.01.24 MAGA hat same as KKK hood		Far left Cuomo let far-far-left James Barrett say that MAGA hat is frustrating because it's "as maddening and frustrating and triggering for me to look at as a KKK hood." MAGA folks have not lynched anyone like the militant arm of the DNC (the KKK) has.
2019.01.25 Roger Stone		In a show of force, Roger Stone was arrested for being an associate of Trump, with 29 armed officers, in tactical gear and armored vehicles, fanning out like they were taking down a terrorist organization and not a 66 year old politico that had been cooperating with the investigation. And to show their corruption, the FBI had first coordinated with far left CNN, to be on the scene.
2019.01.27 Learn to Code		❄️ The left is angry because after the Obama administration's anti-business/anti-coal policies put many thousands of coal miners out of work they supported the administrations, "Learn to Code" response. Then the same Journos/Organizations had lay-offs... and they found the "Learn to Code" retweets insensitive, when it was being applied to them.
2019.01.28 Acosta Rips Sanders		Appearing on CNN with Brooke Baldwin, CNN White House reporter Jim Acosta couldn’t resist taking a swipe at White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders, saying she doesn’t live in the “real world.” That's fine for an OpEd writer, but no real reporter would show that kind of blatant bias.
2019.01.28 More Press Briefings to ignore		CNN whines on one day that they need more press briefings, then they (or MSNBC) won't break into their far-left opinion shows, to show those briefing live, preferring to mis-paraphrase or omit context at their will (trying to forward their message, instead of honestly sharing the administrations message).
2019.01.30 Schultz Misfire		🤦 AOC attacked Starbucks' CEO Howard Schultz with a tweet about rich privilege and classism... she didn't realize that Howard Schultz had a poorer upbringing that she did, and he was self-made. The taste of foot.
2019.02.01 Ignoring Booker's lies		While the Press will never pass up an opportunity to attack any minor exaggeration or error on the right, when they have an opportunity to question a serial liar (Booker), they carry his water instead and gloss over his past. (FakeNews). 🙈
2019.02.03 Superbowl Ad		In the wake of thousands of fake journalists getting laid off, WaPo ran a $5.2M ad during the worst Super Bowl in history, celebrating how far Journalism has fallen, and trying to prop up the sham that, Democracy dies in Darkness, or that it isn't places like WaPo trying to snuff out all the lights.
2019.02.04 CNN attacks UN Ambassador for being like them		Heather Nauert (UN Ambassador Candidate), was attacked by CNN, because she once interviewed an Anti-Sharia guest (and hosted a “panel on Sharia law conspiracies”. Oh noes. Turns out CNN had those same folks on shows on their network, in the same capacity. CNN declined to comment under their two standards doctrine: one for thee, and one for me.
2019.02.05 Don Jr's Call Logs		For months Maddow inflamed her watchers with the FakeNews that Don Jr. was in contact with "the Russians"... then when the story is debunked, Maddow brings on the accuser (Shifty Shiff), has him repeat the claims, then fails to correct or challenge him or the record. No clarification, retraction or correction, just on to the next lie.
2019.02.05 SOTU 2019		The State of the Union speech was a little late (thanks to Nancy's shutdown), but it got delivered. Trump took the high road, Nancy/Dems took the lower one. Trump got a 76% approval, and higher ratings that 2018 or Obama, on a longer and deeper speech. FakeNews and the Fake FactCheckers proved their bias.
2019.02.06 Assassination "Joke"		Jemele Hill (of ESPN and the Atlantic) made a tweet (now deleted) saying AOC should interrupt Trump's next State of the Union address, with the following quote, "GETCHO HAND OUT MY POCKET". This was what one of Malcom-X's killers said before murdering him. Jemele deleted the tweet and apologized, but few believe it was a joke. Without consequences.
2019.02.13 Golf Simulator		WaPo tries to slam because Trump for upgrading a Golf Simulator in the WhiteHouse... it omits the parts that: (a) it was installed under Obama (b) it was never reported on by the WaPo or other so called News outlets (c) unlike Obama, Trump is paying for the improvements out of his own pocket (not sticking it to taxpayers). The real story is in the omissions, not what they say. And that's what FakeNews (Propaganda) looks like.
2019.02.18 Laura Logan		CBS's Foreign Correspondent (Laura Logan) admitted that she might be committing political suicide by admitting the political truth (something frowned on at CBS), that the media is widely far-left leaning and under-represents the other side of stories.
2019.02.21 Conservative attacked at Berkeley		A conservative was physically assaulted for not being left-wing enough at UC Berkeley, the media doesn't care about minority at UC's because it's not a minority that they care about. Do you think the media would have picked up the story if a black student was attacking at LSU, or a latino at UT? That gives you an idea of the hypocrisy (double standard).
2019.02.23 Tuckergate		BuzzFeed FakeJournalist (Kate Aurthur) tries to gotcha Tucker Carlson by tweeting a picture of a sex worker trying to kiss him on the cheek. One of the attendees explains the context of Dennis Hof's wake, Tucker is laughing and pulling away, and had no idea what her profession was. A journalist would have called for comment before posting.
2019.02.25 Stacked Panel		CNN presented a panel of "Democrats and Independents", violating a basic tenet of Journalism (disclosure) when it turns out the panel was actually public policy intern, fundraising and political activist committees, chairs of various county DNC's, and the like. (All people that wouldn't be Bernie's biggest supporters as part of the establishment DNC). These were NOT just Maryland voters.
2019.02.27 Cohen Distraction		Trump has made more progress on North Korea in 2 years, than Democrats (and other Republicans) had made in the last 20, and is having a summit that would benefit the U.S., Asia, and the world. Thus Democrats are starting a multi-day distraction campaign to take the testimony of a liar and fraud, to give their partisan media a FakeNews distraction.
2019.02.27 Pence lacks Foreign Policy		Politico (Jack Shafer) wrote a Pence hit piece claiming that "the human mannequin" was retooled as foreign representative, "despite his scant foreign policy experience". Then it was pointed out that he was on the "House Foreign Affairs Committee for a decade while a member of Congress". Or about 10x the combined experience of Hillary and Barack combined.
2019.03.02 Lies about Sanders' Speech		MSNBC is the propaganda arm of the DNC, and when they get caught making mistakes, will they correct them? The answer would be "no", like most mistakes. Bernie is a threat to the DNC establishment, so the truth takes a backseat to the agenda. And the Intercept earns a gold star for doing actual journalism and calling them out on it.
2019.03.06 Stacked Panel		Not satisfied with giving their preferred candidate debate questions in advance, CNN also makes sure their "panel of Democrat voters" are filled with 50% far left activists. Not disclosing that is dishonest propaganda that would get an F grade in any J-school in the country (and this was the 3rd time in recently history). Fortunately, CNN management and their viewers don't hold them to any journalistic standards.
2019.03.07 David Duke		The Grand Wizard of the KKK (emeritus), called Ilhan Omar, “[the] most important member of the US Congress”. Whenever Duke, Spencer or another racist said less about Trump or a Republican, the Democrat Media Complex goes off their rocker, "see RACIST!". CNN reported it 172+ times for Trump/Duke alone, zero for Ilhan.
2019.03.08 AOC Campaign Finance Scandal		AOC and Saikat Chakrabarti (Chief of staff, former campaign chair), appear to have obtained majority control of Justice Democrats PAC in December 2017, raised more than $1.8M (and was responsible for her win), and illegally diverted more than $1M of those funds. This is the Dark Money that AOC ran on curtailing, not to mention potential fraud. The media isn't interested.
2019.03.08 Taped evidence of CNN lying		CNN posted a tweet saying HUD official Lynne Patton had the, "President's blessing" and was going to do it. Patton says she said the exact opposite, and offered the tape of their interview to prove it. She also corrected the FakeNews story that she was Eric Trump’s wedding planner. CNN didn't retract, and left the misleading tweet up.
2019.03.11 NBC puff-piece on racism		The NBC spin was that Ilhan's anti-Israeli commends aren't racist, because her district doesn't see them as a problem. Buried in 6 paragraphs into the article are hints that many are having problems with her racist comments. Others (WaPo, SFGate, etc), who have looked into think NBC is whitewashing it, as they found more serious concerns.
2019.03.19 BestWeekEver		Jim Acosta whined after President Donald Trump didn't call on Jim. Sarah Sanders linked a tweet to #bestweekever where Acosta had a long winded oral gratification of Obama over what in Jim's mind was Obama's best week ever... exposing the hypocrite from CNN.
2019.03.20 FOIA Requests		Brent Scher at Free Beacon Compared FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests to the EPA to see how many times media outlets fact-checked or investigated Obama versus Trump. The results showed obvious bias (aka FakeNews / Agenda Journalism).
2019.03.22 Mueller Report		The Mueller Report showed that there was no hint at collusion by Trump or his team, it was a Hillary funded hoax, that was used to obstruct Trump and undermine our Democracy, start illegal investigations and wiretapping, distract from helping America and our interests, and keep the media occupied repeating criminal disinformation.
2019.03.28 Yashar Ali bullied		Yahir (NYT/HuffPo contributor) explains how head of NBC/MSNBC politics (Dafna Linzer) called Ali, and tried to bully him on behalf of the DNC, in what was a wildly inappropriate and unethical way. Of course neither she, nor the network would comment on this atrociously partisan behavior.
2019.04.17 Message from the Future		Worked with socialist candidate (AOC) to put out a GND (Green New Deal) propaganda video pretending to be news. It's 7 minute masturbatory infomercial/fan fiction about a time and place where math and reason don't apply: AOC looking back from the future, on all the great things her economy ruining plan had done saving the planet, in the alternate universe of Marxist Watermelons.
2019.04.17 NYT fails Christians-101		Notre Dame fire: NYT reported that Paris Fire Department chaplain went in to save, "the crown of thorns and a statue of Jesus". There was no statue, or crown of thorns. The NYT seems to have no Christians on staff to say, "that doesn't sound right" to their semi-regular blunders.
2019.05.10 Stolen Golfball Fabrication		Trump is so bad, the far left (Sports Illustrated's liberal sports writer Rick Reilly) has to make up stories how he cheats at golf. But there are many holes in the story, like no water feature on the hole in question, "Daddy" line came from a 25 year old, no witnesses. But Vox, Vice, Esquire, The Independent, Hill Reporter, Daily Beast, New York Times retweet anyways.
2019.06.08 PBS says GGWG is a myth		Using our public funds to spread anti-2A propaganda, PBS claims that there's no such thing as a Good-guy with a gun, despite 1.5-2.5M times a year, people use guns in self-defense. I've pulled a gun myself, 3 times on bad guys. I've got a section with dozens of examples at Good guys with guns, and PBS is spreading the lie. They go on to use Fake Facts to spread all the debunked liberal myths, that gun control works, that guns increase crimes, or that your own guns are likely to be used against you. Any researcher with a clue would at least offer that there's evidence against their political agenda. But PBS has given up the pretense of journalism and reporting the facts. Since they're no longer interested in the constitution or Journalism, I say defund them completely: fire them all, and let them go work for NYT, CNN or MSDNC where they belong. Not pretending to be a News outlet.
2019.06.13 Dirt from Foreign Government		Donald Trump took an interview from ABC FakeNews’ George Stephanopoulos (mistake #1), and he told the truth that any other politician would do (mistake #2). When asked if Trump would take dirt on his opponent from a foreign government, Trump told the truth and said, "I'd listen", then maybe go to the FBI. The pearl clutching hypocrites are shocked, but never peeped when Dems did it.
2019.06.18 CNN Pulls plug on uncomfortable truths		Trump's campaign launch rally was far bigger than all the 20+ Democrat ones, combined. while CNN and other outlets covered the Dem rants wall-to-wall, once Trump's crowd started chanting "CNN Sucks", CNN decided to talk over and cut away from a newsworthy event, because the truth didn't reflect well on them.
2019.06.18 Concentration Camps		AOC claimed that Trump's America is running concentration camps, with direct comparisons to the Nazi's. This immediately polarized the rational against the Democrats and their media (her water carriers).
2019.06.29 Knee Jerk Liberalism		NYT, "Stop the Knee-Jerk Liberalism That Hurts Its Own Cause", claims, "If Trump turns progressives into intolerant agents of incivility, then we have lost our souls". Where the fuck has he been for the last 100 years? Turns progressive? Trump won in the fact of Hillary's deplorables comments, Obama's "you didn't earn that", and so on.
2019.07.19 NYT tries to slam U.S. for space program		On the anniversary of one of America and the world's greatest achievements (the moon landing), their headline, "How the Soviets Won the Space Race for Equality". As if there ever was such a thing. Their imagined point was that while America sent the first man to the moon, the Soviets sent the first woman, asian, and black into orbit: so communism rules, capitalism drools.
2019.07.31 One Redeeming Quality?		One of the perfect examples of FakeNews was an OpEd in the Boston Globe asking whether Trump has a single redeeming quality, and answering "no". Tje Globe Editorial staff thought this was News and to failed the fact checking on 55 different lies littered throughout. That is the best Journalism that the Globe can manage.
2019.08.12 Fredogate		Chris Cuomo, CNN's FakeNews reporter and socialist in chief, who got his job for being the Son of Mario Cuomo, and Brother of Andrew Cuomo (failed Governors of NY), got mad because someone called him "Fredo" after the "black sheep" in the fictional Corleone family fuckup (in the Godfather). Claimed it is the N-word to Italians. It isn't. And he is a Fredo.
2019.08.14 Israel boycotts the Squad		"The Squad", or at least Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, planned on going to Israel, meet with terrorist, do a bunch of PR stuff to support terrorists, and mock and annoy Israel. Israel had other plans and denied permission for the visit. The Press/left made a lot of FakeNews around the topic, because Trump had chortled at them getting their just deserts.
2019.08.21 Buying Greenland, dissing Denmark		Trump floated the idea of buying Greenland. Denmark said, "it's not for sale". And Trump canceled a visit to Denmark. The #NeverTrumpers all raged that this was disrespectful to an ally and assumed the worst of Trump. The problem is that we don't know the context, and the FakeNews never did their jobs to try to find out.
2019.08.25 NYT outraged that people are quoting their journalists offensive posts		NYT outs others on the worst things they ever said (out of context, and without scale). Then whines when others do it back to them or their journalists, usually on the very thing they're attacking others on. While I'm not a fan of the technique, turn-about is far more fair, than their original game of nobody that made a mistake should disagree with the left.
2019.09.09 Russian exfiltration		CNN did their usual anonymous source hit-piece against Trump, that his loose lips and leaking of information made the CIA exfiltrate (pull out) a key Russian asset, over fear of him being exposed (on CIA Director Mike Pompeo's orders). The CIA (no fan of Donald Trump's) responded by calling the story and CNN "misguided" and "simply false".
2019.09.25 Hiding the Abortionist		Indiana/Illinois abortionist (Ulrich Kopfer) died on Sept. 3, and 2,246 aborted babies were founded neatly labeled and preserved (as trophies), and the media all but suppressed (ignored) it. The bias in suppressing the story is nearly as disgusting as the story itself.
2019.10.02 Revising History the NYT way		FakeNews revises stories behind their readers back. Like the NYT claiming that the NRA sought a Quid Pro Quo deal with the Oval office... and got a bunch of the far left voices to react (WaPo, Te Lieu (D), Judd Legum and his thousands of twitter ranters). Then they quietly change the story to retract that information without telling anyone.
2019.10.03 Flyover Man		NYT (David Brooks) decided to just invent a hypothetical discussion between Urban Guy (Good Liberal) and Flyover Man (Bad Deplorable). Based on Brooks experience having never talked to an actual real conservative. So a NY liberal creates a Strawman to shred. But it's full of fallacies, and really an embarrassment.
2019.10.10 Trump, Obama and DACA		PolitiFact (and Poynter Institute) have always been DNC water-carriers masquerading as objective journalists. When Trump tweets that Obama admitted DACA wouldn't hold up to Court Scrutiny, and if the Supremes uphold it, it give Presidents all sorts of new powers. The FakeNews water carriers tried to do intellectual gymnastics to defend Obama, instead of the truth.
2019.10.30 WaPo publishes ChiCom Propaganda		Since at least 2010, WaPo has periodically published an insert entitled “China Watch,” which is produced by the English-language communist mouthpiece China Daily with praise of mass killer Mao Zedong like, or celebrating China. They omit that Mao murdered 65 million Chinese... but other than that, he's a great guy.
2019.12.12 Trump Cyberbullies Greta		The far left (like CNN) is outraged that Trump is "Cyberbullying" Greta, by pointing out that a spoiled little school ditcher has "anger management" issues, and she should probably just relax and watch a movie, after she calls for Politicians to be put against the wall. (And shot?)
2019.12.18 Merry Impeachmas		WaPo reporters blasted for ‘Merry Impeachmas’ dinner photo where they accidentally exposed how biased (FakeNews) they are, celebrating the Scampeachment put on by partisan Democrats. Not an ounce of objectivity or common sense. As someone retorted "Democracy dies over chips & guac."
2019.12.29 White Settlement Church Shooting		After Keith Thomas Kinnunen (43) pulled out a shotgun and killed two people, Jack Wilson (71, Hero, NRA member and Trump supporter) quickly shot and killed the Texas church shooter a few seconds in, ending the confrontation and saving countless lives. The video of the event went viral because it was being live streamed and of how fast it all happened at the West Freeway Church of Christ, in White Settlement Texas (a Dallas/Fort Worth suburb). Multiple other people in the congregation had pulled guns and were prepared as well, which caused USA Today and other leftist outlets commented on how scary it was that so many churchgoers were armed and didn't die like good little proles. The shooter had a long criminal record, in multiple states, thus the gun was illegally owned (gun control didn't work). A few months ago, Democrats like Joe Biden had mocked Texas Governor Greg Abbott, for signing a bill into law that allows people in churches to be armed, preferring a much larger massacres to liberty and trusting your fellow man, this event proves them wrong. CNN and other FakeNews outlets misreported Jack Wilson as a cop -- while he was former reserve deputy sheriff and an owner/trainer of a firearms training academy, he was a civilian and not law enforcement.
2020.01.08 End of Brady		While discussing the final demise of Tom Brady and the Patriots, Scott Stossel (The Atlantic National Editor) said, "He’s like Thor, or Superman, or Greta Thunberg—when everything looks lost, he arrives to save the day." So Brady is a whiney misinfomred little special-needs child being exploiting by far left handlers (like Thunberg)? Rather insulting.
2020.01.24 Dracula		NYT issues a few correction for a single article that they failed to fact check with errors such as, the author of Dracula was Bram Stoker not Jane Austen. Errors aren't FakeNews, but when they're bad and prevalent, they do prove you don't have quality control (fact checkers, or proof readers with a clue), which explains how all the FakeNews gets through.
2020.01.24 Genocide Warning		The National Socialists coined "The Big Lie" -- a lie so audacious that no one will believe you could be saying it, if it wasn't true. (And usually it's more true about you/your side than the other side). When Newsweek gets an "expert" (Trans-Activist Brynn Tannehill) to claim that Trump will"facilitate atrocities against minority groups"... based on what?
2020.02.22 What if Trump won't leave?		A good example of Fake News is propagating a lie to scare your audience with falsehoods... like the article, "What Would Happen If Trump Refused to Leave Office? A peaceful transfer of power is necessary for American democracy to survive." Then write an article pretending to debunk that, but really use it as an excuse to both plant and fertilize that seed of doubt.
2020.05.26 NYT Trump 2020 election conspiracy theory		NYT published a complete fabrication on what would happen if Trump refused to leave the White House and a 2020 Biden win. This isn't news, it's psychological projection. Repeating that makes NYT the mouthpiece of the DNC, but not a News organization. A news organization would debunk the Biden/Hillary campaigns for floating the absurd theory.
2020.08.13 UAE and Israel		AP completely discredits itself by calling the groundbreaking Abraham Accords "a rare diplomatic win". If a Democrat Administration had brokered a massive diplomatic coup that ended the gulf Arab blockade against Israel, they'd being trumpeting this historical event. But they're trying to downplay the historic event, because it was done by Donald Trump Administration.
40 Hour work week		The left thinks the Unions/Government gave us the 40 hour work week. It was standardized a decade before by Henry Ford (Capitalism). By the time we had the FSRA, it applied to less than 20% of the population. The Government created a regulation for the very few remaining, and took credit for something that was already done, and leftist media repeated the lie and the non-skeptical gobbled it up.
60 Minutes		Debuting in 1968, the program was created to further reporter-centric investigations. Since reporters lean left, this show often has as well. As time went on, they got more desperate and sloppy with their reporting, and got caught on quite a few unethical behaviors.
9-11		On 9/11/2001, I went to work at a Newspaper when, "A plane has hit the Twin Towers". I thought, "another silly pilot flew into it while in fog, like happened to the Empire State Building in 1945?"... but it wasn't that. This is about my experiences, how the FakeNews has distorted history and used a tragedy to divide and polarize us.
ABC Tanked Epstein Story		Project Veritas caught Amy Robach admitting on hot-mic. that she had Epstein story 3 years ago, with interviews and witnesses, but higher ups tanked it because it make the Clinton and Royals look bad. ABC claims it didn't "meet their standards" yet far lesser corroborated stories against Trump certainly did.
AP on Tara Reade		AP buried that they failed to report on their interviews with Reade in 2019, when she first made public her Biden accusations. They claim that they were "unable to corroborate her allegations", which has never been a pre-requisite for Kavanaugh or Trump accusers. The double standard destroys Journalistic credibility.
AR-15 Bullets		FakeNews/idiots claim that the AR-15 bullets (the .223) are uniquely deadly. That they can do things like enter one place, and spin inside you body and exit somewhere else. The truth is the .223 is weaker than most varmit rounds, and it's advantages were weight (carry more rounds), not firepower. But anti-gunners and media without fact checkers won't tell you that.
Abu Bakr al-Baghadai		The founder of ISIS died by blowing himself up as U.S. special forces were closing in. The leftstream media fucked up reporting this victory as much possible, calling Al-Baghdadi a religious scholar, claiming this would help ISIS, or complaining that Trump didn't tell anti-Americans (Pelosi/Schiff) about the raid in advance, so they could leak it to our enemies.
Ahmed Mohamed		Ahmed Mohamed became "Clock Boy" after coming to school with what looked like a time bomb in a briefcase. The left called the reaction to simulated explosives, "racial profiling", and rewarded him with WhiteHouse visits and scholarships to Harvard. But the truths were that his dad was an activist, he should have known what he was doing.
Albuquerque Muslim Attacks		There was a spate of Muslim killings in Albuquerque, and the left was getting moist imaginging it was a white guy. Oh boy, more white supremacy. Only it was an Afghani Muslim (Muhammad Syed; age 51) doing it, over a Sunni/Shia friction. He was Sunni and mad that his daughter was marrying a Shia.
Amazon Forest Fires		The fires in the Amazon this year (2019) are nothing exceptional (2004 was like peak deforestation and we're down like 80% from then), and most of it is farm land and not forest that's being burned. (Normal crop burns, with a few getting a little out of control). But CNN and Hollywood got to use the Global Warming scare mongering, and blamed Trump.
Assange Irony		Chelsea Manning steals government secrets and is the pardoned hero of the left. Assange must be ruined for publishing it. Why? Manning is a transexual that undermined national security and cost lives. Assange published truths (leaks) that made the Democrats/Hillary look bad. (Actually, their actions and own words made them look bad, but close enough).
Atlantic City Mayor (D) resigns in disgrace		Atlanta Democrat Mayor (Frank Gilliam Jr.) resigning in disgrace, after pleading guilty to stealing $87,000 from a local youth basketball program he co-founded. The prior Democrat Mayor (Robert Levey) falsied his military record to receive $25,000 worth of benefits, and before that Democrat Mayor James Usry admitted to a campaign finance violations.
Atlantic on Seleimani		Atlantic finds some far-left anti-American law professor talking head to ignore the thousands of people Obama drone bombed, and complain that Trump killed one, with far more justification -- and thus Trump was wrong to not get congressional approval first. Pick one standard please. If Trump was wrong, then Obama should be in gitmo.
BYU and Duke		One Duke Player (Rachel Richardson) imagined there were racial slurs hurled at her for being black. But multiple investigations, no witness or tape can corroborate. A mentally challenged scapegoat was exonerated. Duke has not lifted their cancellation of future BYU games. It shows that racists can find racism everywhere, even where it isn't.
Beepocalypse		There was this huge scam (perpetuated by the left) for many years that bees were dying, and it was going to be the end us of all, because bees were so important to the ecosystem. Colony Collapse Disorder was sensationalized as the greatest threat to humanity since Nuclear weapons. A decade later, nothing had happened and most had forgotten the media's sensationalism.
Believe all women/Forced Hair Cutting		A 6th Grade Virginia Private school girl (who was black) accused three white classmates last week of forcibly cutting her hair... and that made national news. Now the accuser admits the allegations were false. The problem isn't just with the people who cry wolf, it's with the FakeNews media sensationalizes these stories for clicks (chasing the algorithm before fact checking).
Beto Hacker Story		We learned that Beto was a hacker in a group called, "Cult of the Dead Cow", had written many misogynistic posts, and had even dabbled in child homicide fantasy fiction. Reuters not only knew of it, and its News value, for 2 years, they squashed the story so it wouldn't interfere with his Senate run against Cruz (which he lost anyways).
Biden/Abortion		Joe Biden divided the nation on Abortion and lied about a poor 10-Year-Old rape victim (who couldn't get an abortion in her state). Of course the story was created by an activist, and nobody can verify any part of the story. And in speaking to that, he gaffed multiple times, and read teleprompter directions like, "repeat the line". Then his staff lied about it.
Black mob beats white guy for voting for Trump		David Wilcox was beaten (and dragged through the streets) for being a Trump Voter in Chicago. Unlike the later Jussie Smollett case, this assault was a real hate crime in Chicago, and the national media had no interest.
British Media and 5 inch guns		The Daily Star had an outraged headline, "We just blew £183m on a five-inch gun, but it’s ‘a good value for taxpayers"... the premise seems to be that they think a 5" gun (Naval Diameter Canon), is just 5" long handgun. You can tell because the subhead was, “the length of a toothbrush.” After getting resoundingly mocked, they since corrected the story.
Brokaw MeToo		Brokaw denies the accusations by 3 women of unwanted sexual advances (one in 1968, two in the 1990s). Far-left activists that claimed "believe all women" when it was against conservatives, defend Tom, saying he never harassed them. While Journalist Megyn Kelly pointed out, "you don't know what you don't know".
Bubba Wallace/The Noose		Wallace's team got hysterical and assumed racism because there was a "noose" in his Garage stall at Talladega Superspeedway, and he's black, so racism... FakeNews outlets did double time on sensationalizing this. The noose was there for months, and it was just a garage door pull, and was obviously not targeting him.
BuzzFeed		The lowest of the news outlets: the journalism of Twitter or Redit with pretentiousness of the New Yorker. By eliminating journalistic standards, and reposting whatever someone tells them, they occasionally get some scoops... but they also have some of the biggest disasters, especially for other outlets that pick them up.
CBS		Not quite as overtly biased as NBC/MSNBC, but they that's like saying he was a gentle rapist (of truth). Still, quite a few embarrassing cases, where if they had any journalists, or fact checkers, the stories would not have run as they did. And they immediately would have fired some of their reporters that reported such disinformation. They did, at least a few of them.
CBS on Guns		CBS running a story that mentions "an Assault Revolver", with high capacity magazines. It has to be a joke, right? Of course 60 Minutes did a whole segment on AR-15 Bullets and how they were more dangerous than other bullets: they aren't. If they had a fact checker on staff, they'd know that.
CNN Tapes		Project Veritas caught CNN skewing their news to fit the far-left DNC narrative. O'Keefe mentioned they he had been secretly taping their calls for months (during the pre-election coverage) and was going to release those tapes. CNN freaked, threatened to suit, hung up, and was outraged that someone exposed them.
COVID Models		There were multiple models used to scare the rubes on what we had to worry about with the COVID Pandemic. They were terribad. They either under-estimated or over-estimated the dead. But even when they got close, they got the time scale to get those deaths off by orders of magnitude (and would have been more wrong, if the predicted the Vaccines, but wrong on that as well).
COVID Testing		When trying to contain a disease break-out, testing matters. Once the disease is in the general population (March 2020), contact tracing and controls are impractical, testing is just trend tracking in communities. So those claiming we couldn't open until we had millions of tests were lying to keep us locked down. That wasn't science, that was fascism.
COVID is a hoax		Politico ran a piece titled, "Trump rallies his base to treat coronavirus as a ‘hoax’". (CNN, MSNBC, leftist polemics and politicians repeated it). He didn't. They lied. Trump called the effort to blame him for COVID a hoax. Even FakeNews Fact Checkers had to admit it.
Cagegate		Does America abuse illegal immigrants? (Kids in cages, etc). Obviously, not enough, or there would be far fewer illegal immigrants. They're far more looped into the risks than the average Joe. The facts are this is rare, temporary, and has been done forever (Obama, Clinton administrations), it is part of being a refugee anywhere in the world.
Caliphate and NYT		NYT created and published a podcast called "Caliphate", about a Canadian lured to Syria by ISIS and became an executioner for the group. Canadian authorities investigated the protagonist and accused him of perpetrating a terrorism hoax, and after an investigation, NY Times was forced to give back the award and offer an editors note (egg on face). But they didn't retract.
Chappaquiddick		Chappaquiddick: where Ted Kennedy did an amphibious assault in the "War on Women", and the Democrats to this day, will make excuses for it. The FakeNews NYT and AP will still whitewash the story for the Democrats and pretend it was a accident instead of a conspiracy and a coverup of manslaughter at best.
Cheeseburgers are just a fad		1938 and 1947 the NYT was sure that Cheeseburgers were a west coast fad. Not necessarily a sign of bias, but one of many examples of snobby arrogance, and not getting trends.
Child Detentions (2019)		AFP and Reuters reported, according to the UN the U.S. had "the world’s highest rate of children in detention.” Then they found out the article was from the 2015 Obama era, and the numbers had gone down under Trump. Instead of correcting/reporting, they pulled the story and whitewashed history to keep from Obama looking bad and Trump from looking better.
Christian Nationalism		The latest dog whistle for the ignorati is the fake label of "Christian Nationalism" and fear porn around them breaking America. Except that Nationalism, Christian Nation, is better than the alternatives. And Separation of Church and state and other implications, make you actively dumber if you believe them.
Covington High School Confrontation		NYT and MSM published an article claiming Covington HS kids mobbed a Native American and an Indigenous People's march. All false. The truth is the story was almost completely flipped; obnoxious activists attacked the kids for right to life march, got in their face, and they remained calm. Later they sued for Defamation and won, bigly for the FakeNews Medias lies.
Crowder YouTube Demonetization		After a liberal crybully (Carlos Maza) has a history of inciting violence on twitter (throwing Milkshakes) against conservatives. He used Vox (his parent company) to pressure YouTube because Steven Crowder calls him a lispy queer polemic douche... because he is one and that was how Maza referred to himself on a few occasions.
Dateline rigged GM trucks to Explode (1992)		Dateline NBC rigged GM trucks to explode by overfilling the tank, putting the wrong gas cap on, and using a model rocket engines to sell a story that they were unsafe, and had to settle a defamation suit filed by GM.
David French/Flip-Flops		French is Flip Flops on key issues like support for Trump, opposition to Gay Marriage, or whatever displeases (or is in the way of advancement) in the leftist publications he is working for. I generally don't mind growth / revision of views. But his flip flops don't smell like that, they feel more like moral sacrifices for career/social advancement.
Deceptive editing of Barr video		05/10/2020 Chuch Todd deceptively edited a video of Bill Barr, and omitted the context that Todd goes on to criticize Barr over. Whether Todd was trying to entrap his interviewee, just make Barr look bad, bury the evidence that it was a good ruling, or all of the above, that's not what anyone that calls themselves a Journalist is supposed to do.
Democracy Dies in Darkness		Washington Post's slogan is "Democracy Dies in Darkness". While intended as a barb at Trump, it's become more a motto. These are stories the media killed, sat on, or delayed, because it didn't fit their agenda; how biased the media has become and is willing to snuff out (temporarily or permanently) the truth for their political agenda, and misinform their readers/voters.
Democrats on violence		If you want a list of quotes that show the Democrats taking the low road, dehumanizing, and using far worse rhetoric than Trump does, we have things like the following. An objective media would fire or shame these people for such hate. Instead, they sensationalize it. Twitter didn't block any of them but blocks conservatives for far less
Dr. Seuss is racist		Melania Trump's gifted several Dr. Suess books, and a Woke elementary school librarian rejected the offer with a condescending letter claiming it was, "racist propaganda". The hypocritical media forgot that they fawned when Michelle Obama or Jesse Jackson read these books to children. The rejection was national news, these corrections weren't newsworthy.
Duke Lacrosse		💩Three men at Duke University (on the lacrosse team) were falsely accused of rape, while the media led Lynch-mob called for their heads (and claimed it was part of a systemic campus rape problem), the school suspended them and cancelled the season. It later turned out that the stripper/escort (Crystal Gail Mangum) had made the whole thing up.
Economist mislabelled Ben Shapiro Alt-Right		The Economist claimed Ben Shapiro (a devout Jew) was, “Inside the mind of the alt-right sage without the rage”. Ben has been one of the leading critics of the alt-right... and the feeling was mutual. The Economists tried to defend their position, but they reluctantly had to retract.
Elon Musk/Nicole Brin affair		💩 Rumor: Musk banged Sergey Brin's wife Nicole, that's why they got a divorce, and Musk and Sergey are at odds. Only Musk denies it, Sergey and Musk were at a party recently and seemed fine, and there was no good confirmation by anyone involved, or reason to think any of the gossip is true.
Fake Facts/Birth of Birthers		Fact checkers (CNN, Politifact, Snopes, FactCheck) answered whether Hillary originated the Birther movement, and exonerated her. It was only her top strategists plan and her campaign staffers, but not her personally -- so they pretended that Trump was lying to imply she had anything to do with creating these rumors.
Fake Facts/Cal outlaws Religious Freedom		You can have religious liberty, or a Democrat controlled government, but as California Assembly Bill 2943 shows, not both. It says no church or individual can practice "conversion therapy", or "pray the gay away". While I don't think those are useful, in a country with religious liberty, you don't outlaw stupid things just because you don't agree.
Fake Facts/Dems remain seated for Navy Seal		Many Democrats remained seated during Trump's first address to congress in 2017, in protest of his very existence. Fake Fact Checkers tried to spin it for the Democrats favor, but showing a few of them might have stood for a nanosecond, very late, but ignore that most did not.
Fake Hate		None of this is to diminish that there still is real hate in America. But it is rare, and often directed at the right, while here's a few dozen (hundreds) of examples of Faked hate for political gain. Since there's not enough real hate to keep leftism demand for change fed, the left commits Fake Hate to fill the gap (or for attention/reward).
Fake News Hunter Review		Daily Kos hasn't seen "My Son Hunter" but reviews it anyways. Spoiler: it tells a truth they don't like; so they hated it. Calling it, "soft-porn conspiracy flick for weird conservative incels"... based on never having seen it, or reading anything about the topic (obviously). Leftist Journalism doesn't require you be familiar with the subject.
Fake Newsmen		Fake Newsmen are nothing new; posers who are partisan polemics pretending to be Journalists, comedians, commentators, or commentators. Real Journalists used to be trained to try to give both sides of a story and trust their readers, or at least maintain the facade of unbiased reporting. Modern ones censor, omit, or actively skew. That's not a newsman, that's a polemic.
Fake Race Crimes/2,000 Bomb Threats		Far Left orgs (CNN, NYT, Intercept, other Fake News), blamed thousands of 2017 Bomb Threats to Jewish Centers on right wing/Trumpers. Counting each as an individual event to inflate the numbers. It was one left wing Jewish kid (Michael Ron David Kadar) age 19, he was trying to frame a woman he dated.
FakeNews about Cagegate		This FakeNews fiasco was the fallacy that Trump's new immigration policy was breaking up families and putting kids in cages. The omitted reality was criminals (border jumpers) have always had the kids separated from the adults, as you aren't sure who are parents, and detaining both in the same place risks harm to children. The media even used faked propaganda images from Obama era to sell it.
Fidel Castro supporters		NYT has been a Castro fan/suppporters from the get go. They started by supporting his claims that he was "not a communist" and had no influence in his regime. Now they admit it, but talk up the "good side" of Communism... other than the murder/elimination of liberty, everyone is more equally oppressed.
Merrick Garland		Democrats promised on multiple occasions that Supreme Court judges, "should not be placed during an election year" (at least when the opposition controls the senate). So the Republicans force-fed the Democrats their wishes. The Democrats went along because they thought Hillary would win and they'd get to parlay an even MORE leftist Judge. But they lost.
Getting Hammered		Paul hires a crazy male prostitute, gets in a drunk hammer fight, the police are called; Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton and the MSM blames Republicans. That's far more reasonable than the story the media/far-left is giving.
Global Massacres/Christchurch Shooting		🇳🇿 A Green Nationalist (eco-Fascist), who hates Capitalism, Conservatism, and is Chinese Communist sympathizer. He doesn't like Trump, shot "muslim invaders" because immigrants were over-populating the planet and causing Global Warming, and used a gun instead of bombs, because he felt the left-wing gun-controllers would be his tools and magnify his message, and start a civil war trying to disarm honest citizens. The left ignores that, and spins it as he is a right-winger. Left wing eco-nationalist shot-up mosques because immigrants were over-populating the planet and causing Global Warming.
Halliburton		The NYT invented this idea that Halliburton is an “evil conspiracy” that George W and Dick Cheney conspired to pay off a company for cheating us, while ignoring the corruption of their favorite Presidents; FDR, Bill Clinton, Johnson, JFK, Nixon and so on. This lead to investigation, exoneration, and yet the myth persists in the minds of their rubes (readers).
Hating Reagan		The NYT hated Reagan for calling the USSR the "Evil Empire" and speaking truth to power (and inspiring to dissidents like Natan Sharansky). Reporters like Anthony Lewis called him primitive, simplistic and crude. Shhh, don't mention the Gulags and mass murder. The Times invented/promoted false narratives about Reagan being a racist, stupid, or hating gays (despite evidence to the contrary).
Hiding the Ukrainian Genocide		Walter Duranty (NYT reporter/Stalin Apologist) covered up the Ukrainian Gennoacide (Holodomor), and attacked any Journalists exposing it. Of course he was winning awards for helping the Soviets exterminate political threats via one of the greatest famines in the world. Pulitzer never asked for their prize back, nor did NYT give it back, for his crack reporting.
Hillary Clinton/Open Borders		Wikileaks leaked the text of private, paid speech to a Brazilian bank where Clinton said: “My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders..." 3 years later, Politifact, FactCheck and CNN were claiming that Hillary never said or meant it, despite evidence to the contrary.
Hillary Clinton: Fired from Watergate (1974)		Appointed to Staff of House Judiciary Committee during Watergate. She was "fired" for corrupt and unethical behavior, according to lifelong democrats in charge of the house investigation Dan Calbrese and Jerry Zeifman. FakeFacts focus hairsplitting that he technically he could not "fire her", only recommend she be removed. And she was.
Hitler Apologists		NYT and other progressive institutions loved and respected National Socialism (circa 1939). Central planning, public-private partnership, tax and spend ideology all aligned with The New Deal. The Nazi's were also saying great things about FDR, and copying the DNC on laws for segregation, since they aligned on so many things. Now they deny they ever said it.
James T. Hodgkinson		After Bernie Sander supporter James T. Hodgkinson shot Republican Steve Scalise practicing baseball, CNN misreported that (a) Trump had not visited Scalise (b) only Democrats prayed for Scalise and his recovery (c) omitted or had erroneous details on Hodgkinson's background or motives. All divisive and false.
How I became a Police Abolitionist		Derecka Purnell writes an unsupported fiction (“How I Became a Police Abolitionist"), claiming that police murder innocents with impunity. The public show evidence on how negligent they were in fact checking, and how dishonest this article's premise is. The Atlantic lack of standards means they turn a blind eye; left wing disinormation is OK on their pages.
Hunter Biden/iPhone Scandals		Hunter Biden's iPhone was crowd source cracked and various nuggets on there are quite scandelous. Contacts like Pedo Pete, compromising pictures, lots of crack and hookers, FBI contacts, calling his Mom (and death brother's wife) manipulative cunts, admitting to manipulating Joe (President) for corruption and personal gain.
Hurricanes/Harvey		Democrats and their media continued their trend of politicizing every disaster or event. Harvey hit Houston, and the far left pounced: all the damage was the fault of Red Staters and a lack of zoning. Never mind that 60" of rain fell in 3 days (wettest storm on record), that Houston is Democrat controlled, and flood control was controlled by the Democrats.
Hydroxychloroquine		Hydroxychloroquine (or Chloroquine) showed great early results in some prelim studies and some top international epidemiologists and field doctors were touting its success. So President Trump cautiously mentioned it as a promising treatment. The media/left turned against it in hopes that more would die under his watch. And they succeeded.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement		ICE is hated by the far left, and gets regular stories attacking them or their supporters as evil racists/nationalists/white supremacists, for protecting our nation from destruction. You can't have a nation without borders. And the facts are that the number of people that want to come to the U.S. exceeds our ability to absorb them.
Is Trump racist for building a wall?		If Trump is a racist for finishg the wall, then that makes FDR for starting it, Bill/Hillary Clinton for campaiging on it, Obama demanded better border security. Why is it only racism when the Republicans do it? The answer is the far left projects their intent on the other side, and excuses the intent of their side.
J6		The left has lied about everything around January 6th, from the timing, intent, participants, motivations/agenda, outcome, organization. Biden ran on uniting, and his party used opportunities like this, to drive a stake in the heart of unity. The show trials, and attacks on the Supreme Court did more to undermine America than Viking Chewbacca taking selfies.
Jeep Rollover Fraud		60 Minutes reported that the small army-style "CJ" Jeep was dangerously apt to roll over: they hung weights at high points, drove much faster than reported, used worn out tires and a mechanical device to turn-in quicker than a human can (580° of rotation @ 5 turns/second), and out of 435 tries they got 8 rollovers. And omitted that context from their report.
Sarah Jeong		NYT technology editor that's a racist, man-hating, anti-cop troll, with an advanced degree in Grievance Studies. Without a clue about technology (degree in Social Media), she's done hundreds of sexist and racist tweets. The NYT says, "it's OK because she was counter-trolling". She wasn't, but if she was, racism to counter racism is called racism.
Richard Jewell		Richard Jewell was a security guard and police officer famous for his role in the events surrounding the Centennial Olympic Park bombing at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia. While working as a security guard for the Olympics, he discovered a backpack containing three pipe bombs and alerted police and helped evacuate the area before the bomb exploded, saving many people from injury or death.
Jussie Smollett		💩 Jussie (star on "Empire") was allegedly assaulted by far left clichés in Gay Area of Chicago, at 2 AM, "this is MAGA country", then stopped the attack for no reason. It defied logic. The left lost their nut when the right said it defied logic. Then it came out that it was staged by two body building friends of Jussies. The left called everyone racist for not buying it.
Katie Hobbs break-in (2022)		Katie Hobbs (Kari Lakes opponent) had a campaign break in, blamed Kari Lake, FakeNews ran with it. Kari is the front-runner by 11 points, was at an event, she had zero need. The perp (an illegal immigrant) was arrested, released, no ties to Kari, no evidence it was politically motivated. Kari ripped the disinterested media a well deserved "new one" over the event.
Kavanaugh Hysterics		The left was outraged that Kavanaugh would defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic, including the left. So they coordinated their attacks against Kavanaugh, and his character, long before any investigation had showed anything wrong with his rulings. In fact, they never really went after his rulings, just his character.
Kim Kardashian in Marilyn Monroe's Dress		News Story went viral that Kim Kardashian was wearing Marilyn Monroe's famous Birthday Dress. The physics don't work. Marilyn was sewn in with the following figure: 35.5″ 23.5″, 33.25. Kim is 38″, 26, 41. The difference is 3 to 6" of fabric, all around. The math doesn't work, even with the back partially unzipped.
Krugman disagrees with himself on minimum wage		Krugman, "Any Econ 101 student can tell you... the higher wage... leads to unemployment". His book says it, he said French unemplpoyment was because of it. But when writing for the NYT he champions the "living wage" and raising minimum -- that he mocked his whole career. 500 real economists wrote an open letter disagreeing. Who you going to believe?
Krugman lies about austerity		Krugman hates austerity, he likes government spending other people's money wantonly. When spending doesn't work, he lies about the causes. When the economy gets better, he lies about the causes. He also lied about the austerity in France and Greece in 2012, Estonia 2012, UK in 2011, and Germany in 2014. Are you seeing a pattern?
Kushner Headline Sensationalism		"Jared Kushner not a focus in Russia Investigation"... then the 5th Paragraph: "[WaPo] has NOT been told that Kushner is a target or focus of the investigation, and has NOT been accused of any wrongdoing." Contradicting what you lead your readers to believe. That's the definition of FakeNews. (The NYT and NPR did it as well).
Leaving Paris Climate Accord is racist		The ACLU moronically claims that pulling out of the do-nothing Paris Climate Accord was fostering racism, other outlets claim it's the end of civilization (or American leadership).
Lies about Domineque Ray Execution		The ACLU and Medium team up to lie (FakeNews) about an execution. Their claim is that a man was executed without allowing Muslim Clergy present, while Christian Clergy would have been allowed and freedom of religion or equal access was denied. The facts are that Alabama had a policy that only volunteers are allowed (no matter their denomination).
Lysolgate		After a COVID briefing on how to kill COVID w/UV light and disinfectants, Trump made a passing comment to the presenter about using these ideas in vitro (in the body). The Press lost their nut, and was claiming he's trying to get people to breathe drain cleaner or shoot Lysol into their veins or something. You can't make this up.
MAVNI Military Recruits		The AP headline, "US Army quietly discharging immigrant recruits" was a poorly written article about how immigrant enlisted had been let go. Orangeman was persecuting minorities in the military. Of course the truth is quite different, Trump reversed the Obama era program, and the media was spreading the Big Lie.
MOAB: Mother of All Bombs (2011)		FakeNews (NYT, LAT, Time, CNBC, ThinkProgress), claims the MOAB (Mother of All Bombs) costs $314 Million, revised to $16M, it was actually $170K. Only off by 185,000%. Anyone with common sense and an understanding of the basics would have questioned it. Nobody in those institutions caught it, or cared, because it fit an agenda.
Man drives van into GOP registration tent		Jacksonville, FL a crazed Democrat (Gregory Timm) drives his van into a GOP registration tent, and most of the media ignores or suppresses the story. Can you imagine if a conservative ever did that? Heck, one racist did it because Democrats (Antifa) was assaulting his car, and they blew that into a swipe against all Republicans.
Maoism loved by NYT		The NYT was Rampant fans of Mao/Maoism, while 10's of millions were getting mass murdered, or cultural revolutions (oppression of conservatives), the NYT was explaining how much better things were under the Chinese Communists. Even in 2017 they're tweeting out Maoist images and explaining, "Communist revolution taught Chinese women to dream big".
Mean Trump kills Jimmy Al-Daoud		Tweets and headlines spin, "Jimmy Al-Daoud", a Chaldean Christian who lived in US since 6 months old and diabetic, was deported to Iraq by ICE in June, where he died on the streets. The facts? Jimmy was schizophrenic, repeat violent felon (20+ convictions), and an illegal alien, and the crimes were why he was deported. Following the law signed by Bill Clinton.
Medicare-for-all popularity		FakeNews, "Medicare-for-all is popular", even in red states. RealNews: Medicare-for-all is popular amongst the uninformed. Support drops below 37 percent (58% opposed) if survey takers are told that the bill would eliminate private insurance companies. FakeNews outlets love to popularize that Medicare-for-all myth. That's not news, it's propaganda.
Melania Trump fashion snub		Compare how CNN, NYT, and other media outlets fawned over Michelle Obama or Jackie O for their ugly fashion sense. While they snub or the only time they comment on Melania is to question her fashion choices. Malania is by far the best looking and best dressed of our First Ladies ever. Double-standards are FakeNews.
Milk Factory Bombing (1991)		During the first Gulf War, Americans bombed a Chemical Arms Site, CNN's Peter Arnett called it a "baby formula factory". Why? Because it had a hastily painted sign (in English) that said so, and the Iraqi's took him there, and told him it was; ignore the barbed wire, military garrison with guards, and multiple sources saying it was a biological/chemical weapons plant.
Muslim Ban		After a series of Terrorist attacks, Trump put a pause on immigration from terrorist countries until we could get better vetting. This was based on recommendations made during the Obama administration. And it wasn't an attack on the religion, it was an attack on the countries that wouldn't help us vet who was coming in. But FakeNews outlets spun it.
NBC Goons beat a guy up for anti-Clinton T-Shirt		Guy wore anti-Bill Clinton T-Shirt to NBC Today Show, and was bloodied and bruised by NBC security. When he complained, NBC retorted that wearing that shirt, he was asking for it. There is a lawsuit.
NBC on Guns		NBC doesn't understand the differences between an AR-15, and a pump action shotgun -- they ran a clip with someone blowing up a watermelon with a shotgun and saying "AR-15". Not only wasn't a fact checker used, but not a single person in their editorial staff knew the basics enough to recognize their own gaffe.
NOOA Temp Fraud		Mann and his faked Hockey Stick, is not the only group caught altering the historical record. NOOA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) was taken over by far left anti-Science polemics, and they got caught altering that record for political purposes. They wiped out the 1930s hottest years being to make today look worse.
NYT Kavanaugh Smear		Acting as a DNC's mouthpiece, the NYT published a hit-piece by Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly, who were promoting their book attacking Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh for being a sexual harasser. Fake News.
NYT on COVID		NYT headline, "One Year, 400,000 Coronavirus Deaths: How The U.S. Guaranteed Its Own Failure"... and the subhead blaming Orangeman, "After the White House declined to pursue a unified national strategy, governors faced off against lobbyists, health experts and a restless public consumed by misinformation". That misinfo came from the NYT, CDC, FDA, WHO, and so on.
NYT/Tara Reade		NYT demonstrated their double standards with sexual harassment claims against Joe Biden vs. Brett Kavanaugh. In response to Tara Reade's credible claims, they tweeted and summarized their editorial position as, “The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden, beyond the hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable."
National Rifle Association		The NRA is like the ACLU once was, except specifically for the 2nd Amendment. They are not a vile organization that hates kids, in fact, they spend most of their resources on training gun safety. They do not oppose common sense gun control, most progressives just don't know what that looks like. And they don't own politicians, they don't have enough money or members to do either. Those that claim otherwise are uninformed haters.
New Jersey and the Economist		The Economist ran an oft quoted FakeNews story that blue states subsidize red states (via taxes/benefits). They did it by ignoring borrowing, compliance costs, and other inefficiencies. What it really showed is that if you spend $2.63 (in taxes, debt, etc) you get $.60 in purchasing power back, and some will see the $.60 (ignore what it cost) and think they're coming out ahead.
NewsGuard		Fake FactChecker that offer red/green light on whole institutions (based on politics), instead of individual articles. It plugs into browsers and offers "FakeNews" indicator, based on establishment (and leftism), not based on the actual articles contents or quality. The same story can flip colors based on which aggregator is reporting it, whether it is correct or not.
Newsweek on Gun Control		Newsweek (or Newsweak), Asher Stockler quotes a University of Michigan study on gun-death rates and misrepresents the facts. Claims only two states saw decreases in firearms mortality and they had gun control, however, quite a few pro-gun states did as well. Many of the ones with increases were strict gun control states. And the study numbers are polluted with suicides.
Nooses in Mississippi were Democrats		There was an uproar (AP and twitter) about a warning from white supremacist leaving 7 nooses... 12 hours later it came out Democrats were warning against electing Mississippi Republican Senate candidate Cindy Hyde-Smith (in a run-off election) by leaving those nooses around.
Northam in Blackface		Poor Ralph, the Democrat Governor for Virginia, got caught dressing up for Halloween in blackface (1984). So long Ralph, we hardly knew ya. FakeNews CNN reported him as a Republican, but like many racist politicians, he is devoutly Democrat. NYT tried to spin it as "Dark Makeup".
Obamanomics v Trumponomics		Big government spending, tax and regulations are burdens on business and scare them away from growth: that's why Obamanomics failed so miserably. While the converse is true for Trumponomics: despite more international threats and instability, the markets were bolder. People anticipate future risks, and higher taxes/regulations require more caution than one with more opportunitities.
Oberlin v Gibson Bakery		Oberlin college made libelous racist claims against a Bakery for arresting violent shoplifters. They lost a lawsuit, and appeal.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez		A limousine socialist who won by promising recesses will be longer, and all the toys and candy will be free. The media played her as a founding a grass roots movements, but it's astroturf (Fake Grassroots). She was bought and paid for by Justice Democrats and they interviewed her as their Manchurian candidate.
Omar Mateen/Not a Democrat (Snopes)		Snopes does mental gymnastics to pretend that a Registered Democrat (Omar Mateeen: Pulse Nightclub Shooter) might have changed parties in the last few months. So we don't know that he's a Democrat, just because he's been one his entire life, so far. (That's their version of a "Fact Check".
Operation Tailwind (1998)		CNN/Time falsely claimed the U.S. used nerve gas to kill American defectors in Laos during the Vietnam War. The head of CNN’s military affairs (Perry Smith) resigned in protest of their own reporting, and CNN had to offer a 54 page retraction about everything they got wrong.
Oregon man beaten by Antifa (2019)		In Oregon a middle-age man was maced, beaten and knocked unconscious while his partner or spouse was trying to protect him from the Antifa mob. Antifa vandalized busses, and other property, during what the media (CNN) said was either "peaceful", or provoked by a right wing group for existing/speaking.
Paige Patterson MeToo (2018)		Paige Patterson's #MeToo dubiously bclaims he slut-shamed/blamed and urged a former seminary student (Megan Lively) not to report a rape. The left defends credible MeToo's against leftists, while the dubiousness of these claims isn't called out. Like he had reported rapes before, he never met with the victim, and their communications were cordial (no pressure).
Photo of migrant mom pleading (2019)		Reuters or CBS headling, "Guatemalan mother begging soldier to let her enter U.S.". 9 paragraphs in it mentions that the National Guard wasn't stopping them, his job was to stop drugs and people traffickers. He was just warning them about the dangers of crossing illegally and was trying to convince the woman not to cross illegally and put herself and her child in danger.
Pinto Fraud		The Pinto never had a worse fire/fatality record that similar sized car, but ABC's 20/20 didn't offer that context, and instead used a film that had an incendiary device show that if a Ford Sedan was rear-ended at 55 MPH, it could blow up. This sensational FakeNews convinced people for generations that Pinto's were unsafe.
Pizza man		Herman Cain got an MS in Computer Science, worked at Pillsbury, managing 400 Burger King's, CEO of a restaurant chain (Godfather's Pizza). Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, CEO of the National Restaurant Association. Board of directors for: Aquila, Nabisco, Whirlpool, Reader's Digest, and AGCO. But sure, “Pizza Man” sums up his accomplishments.
PolitiFact/DGU Disinformation		PolitiFact slammed a weak-sauce study, using a far worse/weaker study to "prove" their point. And intentionally ignored other studies that showed DGU (Defensive Gun Uses) are in the millions per year, and have saved hundreds from mass shootings.
Racist attack on The Squad		Trump insults the fab-4 of Anti-Americanism. His quip against their constant dishonest rants about how bad America is, and how great everywhere else is, is the age old comment, "you should go fix there first", only he added "and then come back and show us how it's done". The far left misrepesented it as him telling non-whites to "get out".
Raid on Mar-a-Lago (Newsweek)		Newsweek claimed that the DOJ was unaware in advance of the raid on Mar-a-lago. Merick Garland (head of DOJ / Attourney General) disagrees -- and after 3 days of blowback and pressure, agreed to unseal the search warrant and had personally approved it.
Real Hate		This is a list of "Real Hate"... the rash of violence (>50 attacks) against conservatives or MAGA supporters that happened after the election that you may not have read or seen much about, as well as other various attacks that the media downplays because it's only against people that deserve it.
Reza Aslan/Fired		CNN said they should be viewed as “the one nonpartisan cable news network"... which backlashed when (after a year of prior obvious bias and slander) people used that claim to force them to reluctantly prove it and fire Reza Aslan (their "religious scholar") after he called Trump a piece of shit. The optics were too bad to sweep it under the rug.
NYT/Rockets won't work in space		The Times editorial-page dismissed the notion that a rocket could function in a vacuum and commented on the ideas of Robert H. Goddard (the rocket pioneer), with condescensending snark claiming that he doesn't understand Newton's laws of thermodynamics. It was they, who was wrong... as usual.
Roy Moore		Roy Moore was the Republican nominee in Alabama for a contested U.S. Senate seat, had run multiple campaigns for decades, but the left hated him, so WaPo timed a hit piece to do the most damage it could to him, and to help the DNC.
Russian Bot		There's a new attack by the far-left on anyone that is rational (conservative or libertarian) that they must be a Russian Bot. Maxine Waters used it, even BezosBlog (WaPo) is known for doing this. I've been accused a few times.
Russian Security Leaks		Fakest of fake news stories is this, "OMG Trump leaked secrets to the Russians". He didn't. But there were 5 Times The Obama Administration Leaked Classified Information to the Russians.
San Diego BLM assault (2016)		A SDSU student (Feras Jabro) was doing citizen journalism in El Cajon, where protests were happening over the shooting of Alfred Olango. Feras was filming day-2 of the BlackLivesMatters protests and asking questions, and was beaten, kicked, and had bottles thrown at him while he fled the scene. Another cameraman was mugged. CBS News and Reuters reported it as peaceful protest.
Sandy Scam		Hurricane Sandy (2012) hit the North East. Then Democrats created a $60B pork-ridden relief bill that was 2/3rd unrelated bullshit. Some Republicans voted against the bill, but offered complete support of a clean bill. Democrats and FakeNews use that to attack Republicans and keep their base ignorant (by not exposing what was in the bill that Republicans opposed).
Scampeachment		Democrats in the House invented charges around Ukraine, to impeach Trump. They claimed asking Ukraine to help the FBI out with an investigation is Quid Pro Quo (it isn't), that's a crime (it isn't), and Trump not helping the Democrats sham is obstruction/abuse of power, it isn't (Co-equal branches), and those aren't high crimes. The fraud failed in the Senate.
Scampeachment 2.0		Democrats tried impeachement scam all over again. This time it was about J6. Appearantly asking for people to peacefully protest election anomolies, or telling them to go home when it turns violent, is a high crime. Thus every Democrat needs to be exited from government for worse.
Sharpiegate		(This is also called Sharpiegate, but is much broader than that). Trump warned that people should evacuate for Hurricane Dorian, National Weather Service incorrectly said not to worry -- they'd rather risk lives than admit Trump did the right thing. CNN spun that. Trump showed the original track, and FakeNews pretended that he made everything up with a sharpie.
Some People		Ilhan Omar claimed anti-semitic CAIR was founded because "Some people did something", to avoid admitting that Islamic Terrorists took down the Twin Towers on 9/11. Oh and CAIR was actually founded nearly a decade earlier. Of course the far-left Press claimed Trump was endangering her, by retweeting a video of her saying that, in her own words.
Stanford Prison Experiment		Famous (debunked) study done by Professor Philip Zimbardo in 1971, which divided people into two groups: guards and prisoners, and within days the prison guards had become brutal monsters and the prisoners hapless victims, showing that authority corrupts, prisons are bad, and victims are noble. It was never reproduced, the guards were encouraged to be brutes.
Tara Reade		The FakeNews media has been actively suppressing information about Joe Biden's finger rape victim, while hypocritically screaming about Kavanaugh or Trump -- neither of which did anything near as bad, or has as much evidence of wrongdoing. If Democrats didn't have double standard, they wouldn't have standards at all.
Tawana Brawley		15yo girl (and Mom), fakes a Race/Rape Hoax to get attention and cash in. There was no good evidence that she was raped or abused. There is a ton of evidence that it was a hoax all along. But it doesn't matter to the racists, who believe this was another case of racism. And it was: just of race hoaxism.
Taylor Lorenz defamation lawsuit		Lorenz and NYT was sued by Influences.com for $6.2M defamation in relation to an August 2020 article. Lorenz alleged Influences of failing to pay to talent, violating their privacy, misleading them about brand deals, and locking them into unfair contracts. Influences claims Lorenz agency encouraged her to run the piece, so they could grab their talent.
Taylor Lorenz false allegations Depp v. Heard		Lorenz falsely claimed claimed that two YouTubers discussed in the article were contacted for comment prior to publication. They weren't. Both YouTubers later denied being contacted by Lorenz, resulting in a series of editorial corrections to the article. Lorenz later blamed the errors on a miscommunication with her editor.
Taylor Lorenz false allegations against Drudge Report		Lorenz claimed she had been "relentlessly" harassed by an editor of the Drudge Report, who had threatened to ruin her career. Matt Drudge personally contacted Lorenz and told her no editor of the Drudge Report had been in contact with her, Lorenz deleted the tweets and said that she was joking. A journalist would have checked before making the allegation.
Taylor Lorenz stalking allegations		Lorenz encouraged doxing and bullying of others. But complains she's getting it back, "Poor me". Libs of TikTok had little sympathy after being victimized by Lorenz. And needless to saw, Twitter showed little sympathy for her.
Tea Party		The railroading of the TeaParty is a great example of FakeNews, either through gross incompetence or more likely leftist malice. It started simply as bipartisan anti-tax, anti-spending, and anti-debt. But they got presented as racist, hyper-religious, far-right extremists, not to mention mocking them as "tea baggers" (testicle suckers).
The Star-Spangled Banner		Post-modernism is the idea that everything is flawed and should be remade in a progressive (usually Marxist) image, starting with language. They found a rarely heard 3rd stanza of the Star Spangled banner and a line mocking the British for impressment sailors. But it used the old colloquialism "hireling and slave", and ignorant assume racism.
The Triumph of Injustice		In a follow-up to Saez's first fraud, He and Gabriel Zucman (two Berkeley polemics) flim-flam the gullible with anti-Economics called "How the Rich Dodge Taxes and How to Make Them Pay". They seem to not understand the difference between tax rate versus effective tax rate to pretend that the rich are paying less than the poor in taxes.
Things can always get worse		The Jerusalem Post ran a joke about a guy flicking a cigarette into the toilet that his wife had put flamable incecticide in, blew himself off the pot, and the paramentics laughed so hard hearing the story, that they dropped the stretcher and broke his ribs/pelvis. 10 years later UPI/Reuters reran the story as News (without fact checking it).
Greta Thunberg		A clueless special-needs girl (Scoldilocks) tantrums over things she doesn't understand. FakeNews/leftist activists treat it like her opinions matter. It's child abuse. Greta is this clueless, nasty little teen (Lisa Simpson crossed with Bane) that has been ruthlessly exploited and programmed by the far left (and her Parents) to think the world is ending.
Thursday Night Massacre		Elon said "No Doxxing". Journos tested him by doxxing. Got 18 hour suspension, and lost their shit. How dare rules apply to them? Wikipedia snowflakes wrote a 3,000 word article whining about it, or relaying all the far left whining about it, without much in the way of counterbalance.
Mollie Tibbetts		A University of Iowa student disappeared and is found murdered by Cristhian Rivera a repeat felon illegal alien. If the law had been followed, this wouldn't have happened and Cristhian would have been deported or imprisoned. Democrats murdered her with their policies. And the media covered it up, by glossing over the story.
Tom Brokaw/Hispanics and Conservatives		Brokaw on Meet the Press barbed Republicans with a lie, '[they] don't want brown grandbabies'. And then slurred hispanics with, "Hispanics should work harder at assimilation". When confronted on the former, he ignored his own lie... but confronted on the latter, he apologized for telling the truth. Full Brokaw.
Transgender Ban		If you have seen the headlines claiming that President Biden reversed President Trump's "transgender Military ban", then you have been duped by FakeNews and leftist propaganda. This lie has already permeated the left's alternate reality where we'll be arguing it for years, and the facts will only irritate them.
Trump - Animal-gate		Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims complained about the violent gang known as MS-13 (Mara Salvatrucha), and Trump replied to that with "These aren't people. These are animals." So the NYT and other far-left Press outlets reported this as Trump said illegal immigrants are animals (and removed the context). It was a stellar example of FakeNews and far-left bias.
Trump Bank Records Subpoenad		Failing to learn of ABC's Flynn fiasco, only a few days earlier, Bloomberg broke a story (based on an anonymous source), that Trump's Deutsche Bank Records were subpoenaed by Mueller: the noose was closing. A few days later, admitted it was Trump, just people he might know. (WSJ had regurgitated the story, and also had to retract).
Trump FakeNews		Here's a few highlights (of 100's) where the leftist media has gotten stories about Trump wrong. The Press enjoyed and abused their monopoly on the megaphone. Americans want there to be accountability for slander/libel/lies, Democrats are OK without it because OrangeMan bad. If you want to know what causes division in America, that double standard is part of it.
Trump Rally Violence	File:Kijkwijzer Violence.svg	There's claims that Trump advocated violence at his rally's -- but that's not the whole context. Here's the facts: Hillary and the Democrats paid violent protestors to go to Trump Rally's and beat people up. Trump responded to that with a Trumpism that he'd pay the legal fees of anyone that defended themselves and roughed them up back, on the way out.
Trump and 60 Minutes		60 Fake minutes attacked Trump and falsely tried to fact check him and do a smear piece, with Leslie Stahl having a hostile authoritative interview claiming “we can't just let you say false things”, while they lied and sat on their hands while Joe flat out lied about the laptop and Kamala Harris told 4 known lies in a single reply, to no challenges/follow-ups.
Trump contributed to newspaper shooting (2018)		Rob Cox of Reuters was tweeting in response to the Capital Gazette shooter (Jarrod Ramos), and said, "this is what happens when [Trump] calls journalists the enemy of the people". Only the gay black man shooter had sued the newspaper for defamation in 2012 and lost in 2015, and was doing it over that, and it had nothing to do with Trump.
Trump ordered Cohen to lie to investigators		Trump had ordered his Attorney (Michael Cohen) to lie to investigators, or so the Press Reported. This set off the Democrat's impeachment Tourettes. Never mind that it was implausible, from an unreliable author, anonymously sourced, and made no sense. FakeNews reported it. Mueller later admitted it was bullshit. And after a lot of fanfare, it went away.
Trump walks out on CNN Interview (1990)		When CNN does ambush journalism, Trump calls bullshit (FakeNews or at least Fake Interview), and walks out. CNN of course edited up this clip, so you can't see the entire context, as part of their "journalism". Same old CNN.
Trump's sexual assaults		List of non-credible women who claimed that Trump sexually assaulted them: E. Jean Carroll, Jessica Leeds, Kristin Anderson, Jill Harth, Cathy Heller, Temple Taggart McDowell, Karena Virginia, Melinda McGillivray, Rachel Crooks, Natasha Stoynoff, Jessica Drake, Ninni Laaksonen, Summer Zervos, Juliet Huddy, Alva Johnson, and Cassandra Searle.
Trumps Baltimore Criticisms		Trump tweeted (paraphrased) two facts: (1) Rep, Elijah Cummings bullied border agents (2) Cummings Baltimore district is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess. And maybe he should focus on cleaning up that dangerous & filthy place. Well, the left and their media (CNN, NBC, NYT, and other FakeNews) hates truth. So they screamed, "Racism" to distract.
Tucker-Putin Interview		The leftist media was outraged that Tucker Carlson Interviewed Vladamir Putin, during the Russo-Ukranian war. But in the real world, this is called Journalism. Then they were hypocritically outraged because Tucker was far more aggressive than they were on Zelensky. The outrage is just that they don't control the narrative.
Twitter Suspends James O’Keefe		Twitter locked/suspended Project Veritas's Jame O'Keefe, for the high crime of reporting the truth about Democrat Bernie Sanders campaign staffers. James caught WaPo in FakeNews, claiming Kyle Jurek and Martin Weissgerber (two campaign staffers calling for violent revolutionary acts) were "volunteers" when they were paid campaign staffers.
U.S. Massacres/Gabby Giffords (Tucson)		Known drug and alcohol abuser with history of mental issues and arrests, suspended from college (sent a letter to his parents for his disruptions), rabid fan of Zeitgeist: The Movie, sent letter threatening to assassinate Gifford and attended her events. Left a message on friends answering machine and on myspace, was stopped for running a red-light, then took a cab to event where he shot Gabby Giffords. Stopped by Joseph Zamudio a CCW holder.
U.S. Massacres/Las Vegas		Letter carrier/IRS agent, shot into a country music festival from Nearby Hotel (Mandalay Bay). 23 guns, explosives, he used the least effective rifles, and his attempt to blow up a fuel tank at the airport didn't work. He killed himself after 10 minutes. The police took 65 minutes to breach his room.
USA Today vs Truth		Michael J. Stern's USA Today rant is a typical dishonest screed that is everything it accuses the other side of. Basically, it's a typically far-left distortion of this country, then anger that not everyone is as much a delusional bigot as he is. Let's go through it point by point.
UVA Rape on Campus		💩 Rolling Stone published "A Rape on Campus" that describes a purported gang rape of Jackie Coakley by 7 frat brothers (Phi Kappa Psi) at the University of Virginia (UVA), as part of an initiation rite. This fed a false "Campus Rape" lynch-mob that suspended the fraternity, vandalized their FratHouse, and impugned the character of many innocents: who sued and won.
Unintended Audi Acceleration		60 Minutes sensationalized a story about Audi's accelerating on their own, by modifying the accelerator to do that. This segment scared buyers and hurt sales -- but the NTSC confirmed that the brakes overpowered the gas, so the only way this could happen is operator error.
Fake Race Crimes/University of Albany Race Hoax		Two black (Ariel Agudio and Asha Burwell) and a latina (Alexis Briggs) female BLM college students claimed to be victims of an assault by a group of whites. They made it up after assaulting a white woman first. The girls were convicted, fined, suspended, made to do community service, and put on probation. Hillary had tweeted about it, CNN covered it, apology never issued.
Uranium One Payola		A potential bribery scandal where Uranium One acquired UrAsia Energy. There's a lot of messy details (like everything to do with the Clinton's). But Mueller was Hillary's lapdog, and we gave Russia access to our Uranium, and there was pay for making this deal happen; the Clinton's made out, but the Press/Left is like, "nothing to see here".
Voter Fraud, Konnech and NYT		Voter Fraud, Konnech and NYT - NYT mocked a conspiracy theory about VoterFraud and ChiCom Company Konnech. Then published the next day about formal charges being filed by far lefty Gascon (L.A.'s DA) against said company for the same thing.
WaPo mislabels Shapiro Alt-Right		WaPo published a couple articles that imply Ben Shapiro, is alt-right (or linked him to famous racist Richard Spencer). Ben is a devout Jew, and been one of the leading critics of the alt-right... and the feeling was mutual. If WaPo had journalists or fact checkers, they'd feel shame. Media Matters defended the hit piece, and attacked Ben more.
WaPo on Guns		WaPo regularly lies about guns, shooters, gun control and NRA. Very infrequently, they get something right. "Democracy Dies in Darkness", isn't just a slogan, it's their plan. If they cared about the light, they would be shining it on both sides of the argument and letting their readers make up their own minds.
WaPo on Tara Reade		WaPo reluctantly reported on Joe Biden's sexual harassment claims by Tara Reade... by attacking the evil Right Wing News outlets for doing their jobs and reporting on it (unlike WaPo). The gross insensitivity and callousness that they show towards the victim, shows that they only care about sexual harassment as a political tool, not for protecting victims.
Wikileaks Quid Pro Quo		Media claims Trump offered Julian Assange a pardon in exchange for covering up Russian Hacking. Facts: "Hack" is in dispute. Assange reached out to share them, but was rebuffed. There was no pardon asked or granted. Media was completely wrong.
Will Happer Climate Denialist?		William Happer was appointed by Trump, so the far left (NYT, WaPo, etc) attacked. You'd think the President put a radical anti-Science guy in charge of Climate Change study, instead of distinguished Princeton Physics professor emeritus, fellow of the American Physical Society, member of the National Academy of Science and the JASON group, and so on.
YETI Coolers		YETI Coolers cut off ties to the NRA Foundation (the shooting sports division), but wouldn't say why (coincidentally timed with Delta and REI dropping the NRA after school shooting). The NRA's open letter, lead to a backlash amongst shooting enthusiasts. Yeti claimed NRA/shooters misunderstood. The NRA's reply to that sounded a lot like: {cough:bullshit!}.
You didn't build that		You didn't build that became a defining phrase of Obama admin. The left thinks without government, there would be no business. The truth is the opposite, without government we'd have commerce, but without commerce and people to tax, there is no government. Government is the parasite with delusions of grandeur.

Conclusion

If you think my list of a couple hundred is comprehensive, you're way mistaken. For ever example I found, there are likely dozens that I have not.

Just breaking down Trump alone:

• There's whole sites like TheGivingTrump.com that documents a couple hundred cases of Trump's philanthropy over the years.
• There are sites like MSMLies.com that have a few hundred examples of the media getting it wrong as well.
• While I have some of the Fake Hate articles listed here, these are only ones where the media clearly mislead. The more comprehensive list has lies of omission (ones you never heard about), and certainly, how many stories in NYT or elsewhere have you read that refers to the total number of Fake crimes there are? Omitting that context when talking about the topic is Fake News as well.
• There's AttacksOnTrumpSupporters.com or my own smaller but more details Real Hate that shows some of the many attacks that conservatives/Trump supporters have dealt with. The fact that there's not MORE counter-violence and retaliation reflects who has the moral high ground.
  
  

If you haven't heard of all of this in the Press, and any of this is news to you, it tells you more about the Press than Trump. And the Presses bias against Trump is a small subset of the problem of their bias for progressive / far-left causes, against conservatives at large.

So the reason that confidence in the Press has crashed is NOT because people are less informed -- but because it's harder for the Press to hide their bias, errors, and crappy standards in the Information Age.
