    Main stream media news is mostly a joke these days.  I don't watch any news on TV.  I check out The Guardian, BBC News and Democracy Now!  For earth related stuff I go mostly with realclimate.org, Wildlands Network, Sea Shepherd updates and Natural Resources Defense Council updates. 

    And, of course, you can't beat The Onion.

    I used to like Huffington Post but not as much these days. 

    MSNBC, CNN, ABC/NBC/CBS?  LOL, the not news news!

    Exactly, people watching that stuff don't understand that is made for the corporations to push their agenda, that's why any of the commentators who embarrass the sponsors, then they are usually gone. MSNBC canned Phil Donahue because he refused their pro-war agenda, even though he had the highest rated show on the Network at the time,

    I have no problem with Hank posting anything he wants, someone needs to keep the neoliberals honest... 

    I just like bringing up Hillary's emails...

    I also think Americans  put too much value in liking a presidents personally, not everyone has to have the charm of Obama to be a good president... Hillary would have been a great POTUS, why do you think Putin dud everything he could to help defeat her?
    Exactly, neoliberalism is making it so there is little difference between the 2 parties, they both take massive money from military contractors, pharmaceutical companies, wall street, the big banks, private prison industry. And I don't believe Putin did anything to stop Hillary, Hillary stopped Hillary, she chose not to campaign at all in Wisconsin & Michigan and barely lost both States. I actually believe Putin would want the person in office who sold him half of our country's uranium supply.

    Calm down everyone. I, for one, think we should be valuing the opinions of 9/11 truthers and members of Russian state TV
    If you actually believe 9/11 that shows you haven't really researched or don't understand physics, to understand it was impossible, it violated many laws of physics & science. They have spent more on Mueller investigation, than they did for the entire 9/11 commission. Democrats never used to be so gullible to believe everything the government tells them, like the government never lies and always tells the truth, lol, you know how ridiculous it sounds saying "I trust everything the government & media tells me", it actually make you sound foolish. Cognitive Dissonance is a powerful thing, a very powerful thing, it makes people close their minds and be dismissive. These people are all experts in their fields (and far more qualified that the amateurs on the 9/11 commission), and they prove why 9/11 was impossible.

    I'm a bit surprised to see you say you think HRC would have made a great POTUS.  That's OK, I like surprises!

    Yeah, I agree, I think unless someone is outright trolling or attacking another poster, all opinions should be allowed and given due respect (respect not necessarily meaning agreement) here.

    This thread is for progressives, so if you are a moderate Republican pretending to be a Democrat, that means not you.
    ABOUT THE JIMMY DORE SHOW: The Jimmy Dore Show is a hilarious and irreverent take on news, politics and culture featuring Jimmy Dore, a professional stand up comedian, author and podcaster. With over 5 million downloads on iTunes, the show is also broadcast on KPFK stations throughout the country. It is part of the Young Turks Network-- the largest online news show in the world.
    There are only 6 major News Services in American that control virtually all the News you see, and they are pushing their agenda, there is nothing neutral or open about it, so if you immerse yourself in the trash that is mainstream media, your cognitive dissonance (brainwashing) will only cause you to get angry, so for your own health & blood pressure
    you should just avoid this thread.
    "you should just avoid this thread"

    i should have heeded the warning.

    This shit has been proven insane over and over. Try Google for debunking articles, although you seem set in your "true progressive" ways (which, interestingly enough, seem closer to far right/Putin based on your posts). US government has done plenty of bad shit...no need to make up fake junk.

    All opinions are allowed, but that doesn't mean I'm going to respect all opinions. If someone voices the opinion that non-whites are second class citizens, I'm not going to respect that. If someone posts that women are inferior to men, I'm not going to respect that. I think you get the idea. I'll respect their right to have an opinion but I don't feel any obligation to respect all opinions.

    Absolute proof.

    Without a doubt.

    If anyone believes different they are obviously corporate shills and suffering from cognitive dissonance.

    Hmm, could it be more likely that plagiarism and stealing of content is more to blame here than some conspiracy about mainstream media? Besides the fact that these were mostly small town local affiliates and very generic common statements that no doubt could be stretched for just about any topic if you're going snip pieces.

    And no, no, no, that is not what Conan was doing.
    It's a hopeless situation...
