NY Times Op-ed: Twitter is Killing American Journalism

Posted by Mitch45 on Thu Jan 24 16:06:15 2019

I've been saying this for awhile. This was a much better world before social media. Not that social media is a bad idea; we're just too immature as a species to use it properly.

No. Why do you think I should have to put up with that shit? I have an equal right to be here same as anyone else. Don't you guys trying to come onto each other. It's not what this place is supposed to be about. Even if fake, it's harassment. Actually, it's especially if it’s fake.

the liberal MSM is bothered beyond belief that people can use social media to find out facts, instead of accepting only what they tell us in print or short segments on television.

MAGAteens story is a great example of a story where NY Times would love to control the narrative and filter the details to their liking.

So why do you guys always run to it thinking it's actual information? I tend to ignore it until somebody actually verifies. Why don't you?

thanks Fred.

The liberal MSM is also mad that social media can be used to provide unedited versions of what really happens in life like MAGAteens, ANTIFA behavior, protests at Israel Day parade, women's march cancelled because it's too white, NYU professor etc.......

Eventually, when your side has global control, stuff like this, the essence of who you are, will be filtered from media

you people, the Democrats, want to censor all content that disagrees with your world view. That will mean censoring video, audio, and writing that tells the truth or allows people to see more than you want people to see.

The one-hour plus video of magateens is a great example. Once you people get your way, we'll only see the smirking kid and :30 seconds of the exchange.

thanks.

the magateens story is a great example of how the Left can construct #fakenews and division among Americans.

This stuff recruits voters for the GOP. THIW

According to the latest polls, you're wrong. Seems like everything they do strengthens the Democrats.

the shutdown hurts. But shit like MAGAteens is the nature of the Democrats and their voters.

Democrats thrive on #fakenews, and accusing opponents of racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia, anti-intellectualism, etc.......

She still swears by them, which means that everyone else with her mentality will have a false sense of security come Election Day next year and once again the day after they will be a shitload of YouTube videos showing the Meltdown, part douce!
