Media/Journalism Cringe Megathread - Hot off the Presses

Guess they're even ragging on Obama now?

Assuming I'm looking at the right Joe Scarborough, he was a Republican until about 2017, and at least in the 1990s seemed to be a fairly mainstream Republican more or less full throatily supporting the Gingrich Program. So, he probably has memories not liking Obama on a number of things, as well as democrats in general. So, he probably hasn't gotten around yet to rewriting his memory and opinions on everything to have always supported the democrat agenda. He just knows its necessary to praise Biden to high heaven now.

Have we gotten any real information yet on what what actually done at this thing? All the news basically seems to focus on Biden/Putin drama. Assumedly some terrible programs were agreed to here?

Liberal news sites are jumping on the hate train as Steven Crowder leaves a surprise debate with Sam Seder. Claiming Sam showed how much of a coward Crowder is, because he left and didn't want to debate him.
So yeah, media bias and all that. Crowder is also a comedian and not a politico like Sam Seder, who says he isn't a comedian but apperently to Google he is.

He also was like "You have a holster!" As an argument making fun of Crowder

So he goes into what is ostensibly a debate with Ethan Klein, and Klein bails out (even admitting he's not a good debater) just to parachute Sam Seder in...but Crowder's the one who's supposed to look bad because he refused to go along with the bait-and-switch trick & partake in a debate he didn't even agree to?

That's not how anything works, and Klein & Seder have really made themselves out to look like little bitches here. But then, I suppose in a way this is an honest discussion between the right and the left. The Internet left as it is is cowardly, narcissistic and fundamentally un-serious, so no wonder they'd pull a childish 'gotcha' prank like this and think wasting Crowder's time is not just a substantive replacement for actual debate but that it = a win. Looks to me as though Klein represented his side perfectly.

Crowder uploaded a video on it:



It includes the pre-setup. They almost looked likable, talking about their kids and pregnancy and how crappy Skype turned out to be and stuff... but yeah... that was the high point. Unfortunate. Maybe having a non-debate focused discussion with Steven Crowder and Ethan Klein would've been interesting.

Yeah Crowder fans who wanted to watch this wanted to see him debate with Klein, after their internet spat. He tore Klein a new asshole and invited him onto the show to have this discussion. This is what his fans wanted to see.

Plus it's not fair to throw you in a debate with a mystery opponent who is prepared while you aren't.

The walk off was fine with me.

I haven't watched it yet but from what I see here, it's fine with me.

People are jumping on Crowder in the comments to his LWC and his upload of only the video. Because he bailed on a "Teue political commentator that is on MSNBC and would give Crowder a run for his money"...

Best part is Giest Dave Landough was going off on Sam and Ethan for thier stupidness

Tbh, even if Crowder had known of & prepared for Klein's switcheroo ahead of time, I'd have been cool with him still walking away. This was pretty damn dishonest of the latter & Seder - it's pretty much the bitchiest move I can think of when it comes to debating, even more than just not showing up at the appointed time with no explanation - and seeing clowns like the Young Turks try to claim it was a 'win' for their guys because Crowder left is like watching some snotty kids jumping up & down while tearfully insisting they won after the teenager who humiliated them left.

What's next, is Klein gonna challenge Keemstar to a boxing match to settle their differences but then pay the Paul brothers to jump in the ring so he doesn't have to?

yeah, it's a total bitch move on Klein's part, and walking away from it was the appropriate response. You don't reward him for pulling that by going along with it.

Klein is such a little pussy.

If we're ever going to win this culture war, we're going to have to find a way to dispel the regressive left's delusions, and force them to accept in their hearts that they've lost; otherwise, we're not going to make any progress towards fixing the damage they've done to this nation.

Wars are not won on the field of combat. Battles are, but those are only ever part of the story. To win a war you need to break the enemy's resolve, to force him to accept defeat. Otherwise the war will never end. Too many conflicts persist because battles are won but the hearts and minds of the people are not. Winning involves every level of society, from the generals and politicians to the shop girls and street cleaners. The infantryman with his rifle may be the blunt weapon used to win this fight, but he is neither the instigator nor the concluder.

Looking at history that will happen after roughly 30 years of civilizational civil war, a dictatorship headed by the love child of hitler and stalen, followed by more civil war and then after millions of people have died, after all the death and chaos and bloodshed the single most regressive traditionalist chad takes over and rolls back the clock 200 years.

Then the regressives will accept that maybe they made a mistake, granted by this point the vast majority will be dead along with millions of their victims and society in general will have so much PTSD towards their bullshit that multiracial riots will fucking murder any surviors of the purges.

Then they will accept that maybe they went a little too far and accept an L.

I still have hopes we might be able to prevent that particular path from being trodden.

I wonder why.
I liked this part of the article

No one has the moral courage to state the obvious, which is Maybe the American media should stop lying about everything all the time.

The bias bad enough, but that’s not our media’s primary problem. Our media’s biggest problem is that they’re a bunch of godforsaken serial liars. Just off the top of my head…

Brett Kavanaugh — Serial Rapist
The Covington KKKids Hoax
Hands Up, Don’t Shoot
George Zimmerman
The Russia Collusion Hoax
The Clearing of Lafayette Square Hoax
The Lab Leak Theory Has Been Debunked Hoax
The Russians are Behind Hunter’s Laptop Hoax
The Russian Bounty Hoax
The Capitol Police Officer Killed with a Fire Extinguisher Hoax
The Very Fine People Hoax
And on and on and on…

The corporate media’s lying is so relentless, so shameless, and so predictable, no one believes anything they report anymore — nor should they.

Yeah. Maybe if they didn't blatantly, outright lie, ALL THE TIME, we might trust them.

They're just as untrustworthy as any state run propaganda. They're as trustworthy as whatever North Korea or China have for news.

Just blatant liars.

They don't even spin the truth, they just make up complete fabrications.

Why the fuck would anyone with half a brain, left or right wing, trust them?

I dont think thats a fair comparison.

Most state run propagandists at least try to have a grain of truth to have some credibility, our current media has lower standards then they do.
